No, ur visa expiry date stated on the visa itself, not the date u leave UK.

This is for college student, not uni student (bachelor, master, PhD)

I have a question concerning it effective date. It comes into effective date since 12.Nov.2015, so basically it applies to those whose T4 visa issued after 12.11.2015, or it will affect all current T4 holders?

Hi Could someone please help me for my queries? 1. What is minimum hours for Tier 2 general job, which is not in a short occupation list? 2. Does company need to mention hours in job advert? Please help. Thanks in advance. Shah As my understanding, it should be full time, and above 30hrs/week. Yes,...

Anyone? Hello pamsk, I think it would be faster if you take time to read documents from the Home Office, instead of asking in a public forum. According to it, "You can only switch into Tier 2 if you meet the following criteria: you must have successfully completed and passed a UK recognised ba...

I think those who claim that they are successful at 40 points do not know exactly about their point calculating. Apart from ur base salary, CoS salary also includes allowance, bonus, London weighing factor, pro-rated of ur salary to 39hrs/ 40hrs...etc...These factors increase their point to 45, not ...

Hi both, What type of further documents they requested? In my opinion it's not an indicator since they always check all applications regardless of their points, so that they can 1st reject unqualified one...But when did u submit ur application? As I can see they ask for extra documents on 2th, which...

Any ideas about when the changes are officially announced and when they come into effect? Tks mates

Well, I dont want to disappoint u but it's the latter case. There are more than (394+100) ppl with salary from 32-46k in Jun. They didn't disclose any further info so we never know it's 495 ppl or 1495 ppl. In my opinion, from now on, there will be domino effect and those who score lowest one will n...

May I ask if you got any suggestions from your sponsor, such as what are the other options once a rcos application is rejected, despite of reapplying in the next round? Will they consider including bonus into annual salary to raise the possibility of being granted a rcos, or deferring the offer to ...

Well I'm shocked. Normally it's undersubsribled and minimum score remains at 32...
