The UKVI has recently updated their rules regarding Tier 4 students and their dependents.
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... .0_EXT.pdf
Page 9 of the online publication ' Family members of points-based system migrants - This guidance is based on the Immigration Rules' clearly states ' Code 1 conditions for family members of Tier 4 migrants whose course is degree level or above and lasts 12 months or longer'. Code 1 being - 'Right to work, but no recourse to public funds'.
However, I am receiving conflicting news regarding this, as I will soon be applying with a HTS private college and is being told that my dependent cannot work because I do not have the right to work. Even though I will be studying for more than 12 months, at degree level. Please note that my dependent has always been given the right to work since we were issued Tier 4 visas since 2011.
Has anyone had any experience or substantial evidence to support my queries? I really need to know if my Tier 4 dependent can work.
