Two valid visas at the same time

Post by Eternalstudent » Thu May 24, 2018 3:23 pm

Hello everyone,

I have a question I am hoping you could help me with.
I have used to be on a Tier 4 student visa and have recently switched to a Tier 4 dependent visa.
I was wondering if both visas are valid at the same time or did the Tier 4 student visa was cancelled the moment I got the dependent visa?

The reason I am asking is that an employer is offering to sponsor me on a Tier 2 visa and if the Tier 4 student is valid, I am exempt from RLMT and need an unrestricted CoS. If it was cancelled than it's a very different matter and there is no point for me to pursue this option (as I can work there regardless as a Tier 4 dependent).

Any wisdom will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Your tier 4 main student visa will have been cancelled automatically when your dependent visa was issued.

Thank you for the reply.
I guessed as much, but wasn't sure.

There goes that Tier 2... :?
