Re: Switch from tier 4 to tier 2 before completion of Master

Yes I am in the UK right now, the only time I went back was in July 2014 to Sept 2014 to apply for my new tier 4 visa. The only thing is I asked someone else and they said since I applied for my new tier 4 visa outside of the UK it may not be possible to switch to tier 2 based on my bachelors? Is th...

Re: Switch from tier 4 to tier 2 before completion of Master

Thanks fx125 and everyone else who have responded so far! I think I understand my situation now. But just one last thing to clarify based on the below information. My first tier 4 end date was Oct 2014 but I left the UK in July 2014 to go home where I applied for my second tier 4 more than 28 days a...

Re: Switch from tier 4 to tier 2 before completion of Master

My first tier 4 end date was Oct 2014, but then got my new tier 4 by Sept 2014? I think if you got your second Tier 4 no greater than 28 days before your first Tier 4's leave ended/was curtailed, you should be good to switch without an RLMT and before completing the Masters. If your course ended and...

Re: Switch from tier 4 to tier 2 before completion of Master

So even if I've completed my Bachelors in the UK I cannot switch? Just to note, I've already completed my bachelors and right after the bachelors I chose to do a masters in the UK? Hello, No, you cannot switch to tier 2 inside the UK without completing your course. If you decide to switch to Tier 2 ...
