Limited Leave to Remain(Student). URGENT PLS HELP!!!

[dewales001]

Hi Guys!!!

I'm an international student here in the UK with a dependant (Wife). I have a Limited Leave to Remain as a Student under the former immigration rules (NOT PBS Tier 4) that expires 31st of January 2010. I finished my MSc course officially on 30th SEPT. 2009 from a recognised university in Scotland and due to graduate in June 2010.

My problem is that I want to travel to my home country for a family member funeral sometime in December and will be back shortly after christmas (28/12/2009). I wanted to transfer my status to PBS Tier 1 (Post Study Work Visa) which I believe I'm entitled to after a succesful completion of my MSc using the UKBA premium service before traveling, but all HO centers are fully booked till the week commencing 14th December 2009.
My plan now is to book for January appointment in any of the HO centers once available.

My question is; will the immigration officer at the point of entry allow me and my dependant back into the country with my current Leave to Remain? Or will I be sent back because I finished my course officially in September?

that should not be a problem, but they may ask you questions about your study etc... The Problem is as you have finished your course this may be an issue as they could deny you re-entry if they feel you may overstay you visa(which i know would not be your aim) but the Immigration officer could decline you entry and ask you to reapply for entry nearer the date of your graduation for that in particular. The best advice would be to ensure you get the Post study work visa. So you just have to keep looking for appointments

apply for your psw and there is every chance that you'll get your passport back before december but obviosly there is no guarantee.

the other option is to contact a solicitor who can get you a same day appointment but they will charge a good fees, be careful in selecting a solicitor

good luck
