Hi there, I will be very grateful if anyone can help me here. Recently I've proposed to my girlfriend and we are planning to get register marriage. At the moment she's with Student visa Tier 4 and I am on a Tier 2 General. If she needs to switch from Tier 4 to Tier 2, does she needs to go out from U...

If you are extending Tier 2 General visa, the route is the same as people with fresh applying Tier 2 General?
e.g. Proving £900 funds, University/English proof..etc ?

Yes, you cannot make money as self employed and if you do, your visa will be revoked.

What I best suggest you to is either switch to Tier 1 Entrepreneur or setup a company back home in your country and have online money all debit to your own bank account in your country and pay your online tax there.

Hi, Recently my long time girlfriend joined me here in the UK. She's studying and I am working full time (under Tier 2 General- Employer sponsored visa).

For students who waiting for re-sitting exam, writing up thesis and so on.. What visa do they use now once the Student visa ran out?

Thanks for your reply

If with Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa, does that means she are not allowed to be an employee but have to run her own business?

I'm seeking is there any other way apart from marriage? We are not so ready to get married yet..
How about entrepreneur visa Tier 1 ? Is it possible way out?

She's a student and transfer visa to Tier 1 entrepreneur after graduation. Let's say she has £50k in the bank

Hi there, I am seeking advice on behalf of my girlfriend. Recently (11th Sept 2013) she has arrived to the UK and begin her Pharmacy (OSPAP) course as a Tier 4 student. Our plan was after she graduated under Tier 4 she would be able to find a job to do 'pre-reg' in the UK. Due to the immigration law...

Ok. Accountant recommends me to open a Limited company. On the other hand My Tier2 General do not allows me to open a Limited company. If I do generate money from the internet, what am I suppose to do? Stop them all? With T2 General it seems to be like I must ONLY work or working additional 20 hours...

Hi, thank you for your reply

Just wondering if you have any recommendation of visa expert that I can seek for ?

Thank you so much for your quick respond.

Does that mean with T2 General visa, I am not allowed to even to trade shares marketing in my own time?

Say, that's going to make money. How am I going to declare the tax without opening a 'sole trader' or 'limited company'?

That's tricky

Being a director of a limited company is not relevant to your immigration status but obviously you cannot be employed unless the employment falls within the limits of additional work for T2 Migrants. That being 20 hours an in the same capacity as your current situation. Hi Lucapooka, Thanks for the...

Hi, I am in the same situation as well. I hold a Tier 2 visa that my company sponsor. Can I setup a limited company? Does my visa allows me to do so? I seek for an accountant and he said we can (I doubt his advice). He's not any expert in visa. What my main concern is that if setting up a limited co...
