Hi...
I am planning to apply for Tier 1 visa and am currently a Ph.D. student in the US. I am really scared that my current student status might impact my ability to obtain the visa as my official degree date is in 2013. However, I do have the required points (from earnings and previous MBA) which qualify me.
I have 2 options here:
1) I can show myself as a current student and show earnings from Aug'08 to July'09 (as I started my degree in Aug'09)
2) I can show that I am currently working as a Teaching Assistant and show my earnings from Jan'09 to Dec'09 (which are comparatively less as my earnings as TA are very low). In any case, I do end up with sufficient points to qualify for the visa.
Can anyone please shed some light on whether being a current student can be detrimental for my application?
Also, in case the application is not approved, is the fee refunded?
Many thanks...
Nonie.
