I have just obtained my PSW visa....under the tier 4 student visa we were covered under the NHS....
what happens on the current visa type? do we need to register again or does it automatically get renewed..

Anyone legally living in the UK is covered by the NHS, there are no two ways about this.
Not sure about you visa question - was it with reference to NHS and renewing your registration with your GP or was it just regarding the visa???
If NHS - then there is nothing like renewing it because your visa has changed from Tier 4 Student to Tier 1 PSW
If regarding your Tier 1 PSW, then it does not renew itself. Depending on your PSW Visa being 2 or 3 years long, you need to ensure to meet all requirements for visa extension 12 months prior to the last date on your visa

it was regarding NHS
so I understand that I am automatically covered under my new visa type since I was covered my student visa...
thanks for answering my Q.
cheers
