Tier 2 General to Tier 4 dependant

Post by babyblue731 » Tue Jan 17, 2017 11:52 pm

Hi,
I'm currently on Tier 2 General visa, my husband is my dependant.
My visa would be expired soon, and I might not be able to extend it.
He would like to take a Masters course and switch to Tier 4, we understand that he has to go back to home country to switch his visa.
What about me? Can I switch to his dependant in the UK after he got his visa on Tier 4

Yes, if his course is at least 12 months long.
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.
