Re: Tier - 4 to Tier - 2, Probation Period

Actually, our website is correct. The immigration rules only allow you to start working on a full time basis in a permanent role if a person has successfully completed and been awarded their degree. If you're applying under either of the other two conditions, then you can't start working until you h...

Re: Tier 4 - PhD extension query

May I know how do you apply for PhD extension visa? You have given 5 years of visa intially right? You usually need to have an academic reason to extend your Tier 4 visa e.g. extension of thesis submission date. Most universities treat PhD's slightly differently but there always needs to be an acad...

Re: Startup Visa

You need to talk to your university about how you can be endorsed and whether there are any selection competitions you need to enter. Each university has their own selection criteria and processes. Talk to the International Student Advisers at your university as they will be able to point you toward...

Re: Help! Failure to Register with the Police

@SamanMJ - You can only register with the Police Force in the area you live in. So for example, if you are living in London you'd need to register with the Metropolitan Police, if you're in Brighton you need to register with the Sussex Police etc. It has to be your permanent address, you can't stay ...

Re: Advice on Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa switch to Tier 4 Student visa

I'd also say that if you are planning to apply for a Tier 4 visa then registering yourself as self-employed is a risk as self-employment is not permitted on a Tier 4 visa.

You might find it better to speak to an immigration expert face-to-face so you don't take risks.

Re: Tier 4 student visa “no work except work placement

This may have been an error if you were studying at degree level in a university (not a private college). However, you would have needed to have requested this to be amended within 10 days of your arrival in the UK as per the letter your BRP was attached to advised. As the previous poster says, you ...

Re: URGENT QUERY - CHANGE COURSE AND SPONSOR FOR TIER 4 -APPLYING FOR NEW TIER 4

You need to get in touch with the institution that you plan to move to see if this is possible, especially if you hoped to apply in the UK. You may not be able to do this as you will not have successfully completed the programme that you were previously issued a CAS or and therefore won't meet the a...

Re: Doubt on Post study visa

Yes, it probably is true. Rule changes generally happen in April and November so we anticipate "if" it is approved the relevant changes won't be published until April 2021. Even then they can set dates for introduction of the new route as was the case when they introduced Start-up. Unfortunately, a ...
