This, naturally, heightens my concern over this situation even more. I'm starting to think that I will ...

Exceeding 5-year visa cap

I have a rather urgent concern about the 5-year cap for Tier 4 visas and was hoping someone might be able to provide me with some guidance or advice based on my situation.
