1. Yes thats correct as u have no reason to come bak to UK and u can be refused entry or might not but it has happended in the past.grad86 wrote:I'm currently on a student visa, finishing my degree in October. I have my visa valid until January 2010. I will get a confirmation from my uni in December or early January. Can I travel back home in the mean time and still come back on my student visa and then apply for PSW?
There are rumours that immigration officers do not allow re-entry at times.
Please advise.
1. My information is 100% correct and u really need to look into this if u wna give an answer without knowing the facts.vinata wrote:I believe this information is incorrect. My last student visa was expiring in Mar 09, but i traved over Christmas and came back to the UK in Jan 09. I wasn't asked any questions by the immigration officer whatsoever.
So, if you have a valid letter from university which states you complete your course in Dec/Jan, you can show it at the boder and you would be allowed in. However, if you say you completed your course and don't do studies any more, then it could be possible you may not be allowed in. But it is still unlikely as you can enter the country legally until your visa expires without any problems.
1. I am also worried about u advise as one of post u advised that IGS to PSW can apply from bak home and i clearly stated that they can not but i did not hear from you about that either.vinata wrote:I believe this information is incorrect.

1. If u read my post properly then u will understand wat i said.sule wrote:Ash786 you seem to know tha ans to every situtation! You can certainly travel after your studies as long as you have valid leave to remain.. The HO normally gives additional leave after your intended finish date not to be a prisoner in the UK.. I have travelled having only 2 months leave remain and had no issues.. Get a letter from your uni and u will have no issues..
1. U do not seem to understand the situation.sule wrote:I had finished.. had two monthly left went home and came back with no issues.. DO NOT contribute towards what you dont know or experienced.. the additional time given after your studies it meant for travelling, integration, & making up your mind etc.. as long as you have nothing to hide on entry you will have no issues EVEN if you are stopped.. there is also something called graduation after your studies.. which is a valid reason to return!
1. If immigration let u in then its u luck as my friend was stopped and he had to go bak home (he still had 3 weeks left) and the reason was that u do not have any valid reason to enter UK as u finished u studies.kiran_jammy wrote:hey buddy...i think u are wrong abt this....my visa was due to expire on 31st of aug and i returned to uk from india on 8 of aug....there was no prob at all..i even confirmed that from my uni people that u can travel after ur completion of degree. u can stay or come to uk as long u have a valid visa. there is nothing like 50-50 ..even if they stop....u can give them reason for extension of visa and graduation ceremony or holiday...thats not a prob
My friend , you can travel any where in the world , and it is true you should have a reason to come back to london . Your reasons can be :ash786 wrote:1.
