tier 1 to tier4

hello guys
im on psw ending in May 2013, thinking to do anoter master degree program, is it possible to apply for visa extension within UK? from psw to tier4 ? also i got one dependent as well do de hv to go back to reapply ? im in uk since 2006, please advise soo... thanks

it would be hard to justify to the UKBA why you want to do another masters programme. it is possible to switch within the UK but you must show higher maintenance. dependants can stay as long as they are already in the UK.

<<For Tier 4 route>>

It is possible to apply for Tier 4 visa after PSW and is not hard.

However, you must show Full maintenance of funds

Inner London = £9,000
Outer London (or anywhere in UK) = £7,200
for 28 days

-------------------------------------------------------------
<<For Tier 1 route>>

A 5 years program route to Permanent Settlement. You have 3 most viable routes to acquire this Visa.


A) SPONSOR
i) £200,000 sponsor funding
ii) £50,000 sponsor funding (must open company within 90 days of filing application have to be a Graduate Level Business (NQF 4 or above))

B) Venture Capital Firm's Funding of £50,000. They will provide access of £50,000 on your behalf.

- Dependents can work Full time, anywhere in UK
