If your grandmother is funding your studies, she can pay your tuition fees direct to the university, then give you the money for living costs.Elizabeth Napoleon wrote: ↑Thu Apr 16, 2020 7:09 pmYeah but they will refuse the visa anyways if I don't have the maintenance fees( intuition + living expenses ) for a year in my account.

That is not an immigration matter. The type of visa you hold for the UK, if any, has no bearing on your eligibility for student support, and vice versa. You can get advice on your eligibility for student support from the student advice team at your proposed university, or at ukcisa.org.ukElizabeth Napoleon wrote: ↑Tue Apr 21, 2020 7:53 amSo I was thinking of applying for student finance to help me fund my studies
Those are two separate and unrelated types of immigration permission. See the eligibility for a Tier 4 visa as posted previously, and the different eligibility for coming to the UK as the family member of an EEA national. Both are available at gov.uk in the "Visas and Immigration" section.Elizabeth Napoleon wrote: ↑Tue Apr 21, 2020 7:53 amand get the 4- tier visa as a family member of an eu citizen.
It applies to UK funds ONLY.Elizabeth Napoleon wrote: ↑Tue Apr 21, 2020 2:01 pmDoes the no recourse to public funds rule when applying for the 4 tier visa also applies to public funds from other countries? Can I use student finance from Swedish government to fund my studies in the UK if I am applying for a 4 tier visa??
The public funds restriction does not relate to the application itself, but is a condition of the resulting visa. “Public funds” means a specific list of UK welfare benefits that you cannot claim once you have the visa. Student financial support from any country, including from the UK, is not a public fund.Elizabeth Napoleon wrote: ↑Tue Apr 21, 2020 2:01 pmDoes the no recourse to public funds rule when applying for the 4 tier visa also applies to public funds from other countries?
