Tier4 Visa - In country switching

Hi,
While in UK (without leaving the country), can someone switch from Tier4 Post Study work visa to Tier4 Student dependent? Assuming the applicant got married to someone who is on Tier4 Student visa
Also, can someone switch from Tier4 dependant visa to Tier4 student visa without leaving the country?

Thanks

There is no such thing as the "Tier 4 Post Study work visa", but almost everyone can switch in the UK to a PBS dependant visa. The few exceptions are listed in paragraph 319C(h) of the immigration rules. See https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration ... ly-members

No, except under the current temporary concession due to the pandemic, only for people who need to apply urgently. See
