It's your decision but for the avoidance of doubt you might consider getting a letter from your tutor confirming that you are no longer on term time.


What is term-time?
For most students, term-time and holiday or vacation time are defined by their institution's calendar. They are usually based around the academic year with holidays at Christmas, Easter and in the summer. Where courses do not follow the usual August/September to June pattern, term-time means any period when you are supposed to be doing academic work. For example, when you should be attending classes and lectures preparing for exams doing coursework writing essays, a dissertation or thesis.

Your holidays, when you can work full-time, are the period when you do not have to be doing academic work. This will be different depending on the type of course you are doing. For example, if you are supposed to research and write a dissertation or thesis while other students are on holiday, this is term-time for you and you should restrict your work to 20 (or 10) hours a week during this time. However, if your tutor or supervisor agrees that you can take a break for some of that period and is happy to confirm in writing that this time is a holiday for you, you can work full-time during that agreed break.

Now I have submitted dissertation in sept 2011 at university. so my question is that after the completed all modules and dissertation in UNI. Now at this time just I m waiting a result for dissertation. so this time i have right to work as full time or still 20 hrs and i have Student visa is valid next year Feb 2012. Now i have taken university letter, this letter show my course started dated and submitted my dissertation date.

Please see Comprehensive Guidance for Employers on Preventing Illegal Working

You can employ a student who is undertaking a course of degree level study or above, or a foundation degree course:
for up to 20 hours per week only during term time; or
full-time only outside of their term time i.e. during vacations and following completion of their course; and they must still have valid leave.

Also see working with student immigration permission when studies have ended

If you have immigration permission that extends for up to four months beyond the end of your studies, you can work full-time for that extra period once you have completed all your studies
