Switch from PSW to Tier 2 English Language Requirement

Post by PriyamMaheshwari » Mon Sep 09, 2013 10:50 pm

Hi,

I am switching from Post study work visa to Tier 2. On UKBA website it says the following but it doesn't mention Post study work visa. So do i need to submit evidence? My UK degree doesn't mention that my course was in English, can I still submit it?
You will meet the English language requirement automatically and score points without having to send further evidence if:

you have previously been given permission to stay under Tier 1 (General) or Tier 1 (Entrepreneur), or as a businessperson, a work permit holder, a representative of an overseas newspaper, news agency or broadcasting organisation, a member of the operational ground staff of an overseas-owned airline, or a Jewish agency employee;
you were given permission to stay under the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme after 7 November 2006;
you were given permission to stay in the past under Tier 2, have already given us evidence that you meet the Tier 2 English language requirement, and are applying to extend your stay;
you are applying because you have changed jobs, and you have already given us evidence that you meet the Tier 2 English language requirement; or
you are applying because you have changed jobs, and you have been given permission to stay in the past as a minister of religion on or after 23 August 2004.
