Switching from TIER 2 dependant visa to TIER 4

Post by C4CInnovations » Thu Sep 25, 2014 8:49 am

Hi there,

I am currently under a Tier 2 sponsored visa and my hubby depends on mine. I just resigned from my job and he wants to start an MSc degree in Jan. Please is it possible for him to switch from a Tier 2 dependant visa to a Tier 4 visa within the UK?

Thanks for you help! :)

Thanks a lot for your response. :lol:

One more question please. Can I switch from my Tier 2 visa to depend on his Tier 4 visa within the UK? Or would I need to go back to my home country first?

Thank you sooo much!
