tier 4 extension

Post by DanteN » Wed Apr 14, 2021 9:24 pm

Hey...
My Visa expires on May 2021 and I haven’t been able to get any form of work experience in the UK due to Covid. Is there any other means to get an extension on the visa or any sort of leave.

No. I recommend you look into applying under the Skilled worker route from your home country. You will be a "new entrant" for at least 2 years after graduation.

If you genuinely cannot leave the UK because of the pandemic you can ask for some extra time called Exceptional Assurance, but this is not an extension just extra time within which to leave. See

I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.
