Can spouse work while I'm on a student visa?

Post by brandi » Wed Apr 29, 2009 8:26 pm

I'm considering going to a UK university for my masters degree and I know that my husband is allowed to come live with me, but may he get a part time job while we are there? Nothing I have been reading has made this very clear to me. We are both US citizens and the degree will take apx 11 months. Thank you!
