28days rule before visa expiry

Post by tariq_sohaib » Thu Jul 03, 2014 4:37 pm

I used for postgraduate new course within the UK, I got offers from a university, the start date, of course mentioned in the offer letter is 22/09/2014, while my visa will expire on 24/09/2014. No doubt my visa will expire after the start date, but the condition of 28days is violated by a tolerance of one daytime. Please can anyone serve me out this puzzling state of affairs? Thanks

Are you sure that you have correctly written the dates. If so, then what's problem of extending the tier 4 visa?

Thanks for your response and encouragement. I am certain I have correctly written the dates, course start date on offer letter is 22/09/2014 and my visa expiration date is 24/09/2014. I have simply doubted that on 22/09/2014, it will start 29th day before the death of my visa. I desire you will further remove my suspicion about it. Thanks!

If the course is starting no more than the 28days from the visa expiry date and all other conditions such as study cap, academic progression etc are met then simply extend your visa.

Being a guru of the site, what is your final opinion in my example.
