Tier 1 post study work visa

Hi All,

I came to uk recently for my higher education. When i applied for my visa they mentioned that we are eligible for psw. And unfortunately our course is going to end in may 2012. So i am bit worried that we are not eligible for psw. Ofcourse no company will give tier 2 sponcer visa. My concern is when i applied my visa there is a rule that we can apply for tier 1 psw, based on that they will consider us or they will not consider our january intake students.

PSW visas are only granted where the appliant has recieved their results. As you will undoubtedly complete your course after 2010, you will not be eligable to apply for PSW.

your course is ending start of may or end of may 2012?

PSW will end for applicants on April 2012, if you manage to get your results and apply before that date then its fine, if not you will be subjected to the new system

This is the precise point... they make it seem easy to get tier 2, it's very difficult. Even with no limits, few, if any companies will do that. And those get 100 000+ apps anyway...

All small,mediums etc. no way.

I guess you are one of those who will lose... You should try finding a job sooner, that's it. Chances are very small, but try. It's not fair, i know.

I think this wont spoil you, its for the people who come to UK after april 2012. People who are already in or who come in before april 2012 can claim their PSW with TA. But iam not pretty sure about this, moderator vinny or sushmehta can surely shed some light on this

If you started in Jan 2011, you must build pressure on UKBA and Uni. for TA.

no this is wrong. Psw will close in April 2012. Therefore if you haven't got your degree by then you won't be able to apply.

In my opinion you will be eligible to apply for PSW If you can get your result and apply before 12 april 2012

Exactly, you can only apply IF you get your degree results before april 2012... people have to understand that the Transitional Arrangements are from NOW until APRIL 2012... Is it so hard to get that?

From April 2012 no matter what stage in ur degree you are, you will have to apply through the new system which requires a job offer from a sponsor...

I do agree with Tusso. From April 2012 PSW will be completely closed for everyone!
