PSW- D2 and D4 Help! Entry clearance & Reference No.

Post by frisfris » Tue Nov 01, 2011 12:44 pm

Hi, I need some advice before sending my psw application.

I was on student visa until 08/11. Then I went back home( Mauritius) and came back to UK. I got entry clearance at the airport (heathrow) itself. (visiting student for 6 months).

D2- Where did the applicant obtain entry clearance before travelling to uk?
Should i put heathrow/ukba? or Mauritius?

D4- Should I use the ref no on my entry clearance ( just a stamp with LWT ** ***) or use the ref no on my student visa which has expired, but under which i did my postgrad degree?

It's quite urgent, but thanks a lot for you help guys!

are you making your application from inside or outside the UK?

Cheers.

student visa and entry clearance are two separate things. are you sure u r not confusing the two?

for example, entry clearance may act as a student visa but a student (extension) visa may not be an entry clearance visa.

1. London heathrow airport if thats the most recent entry clearance visa you got

you can't switch from a student visitor visa to leave under PSW from within the UK if this is your intention.
