I would like to see a reference to a specific rule that prohibits full time study to tier 1 holders.raghava39@rediffmail.com wrote:Depends on which type of study you would like to undertake. If it is full time , the answer is NO. If it is part time, yes it is possible to study in case you have a permanent job. As in a contract job it is difficult to get permission to attend the classes

Please can you share the email address to use for the home office for such questions. I would be more than happy to write to the home office about this and have this clarified, especially now that i have the visa issued this morning!
Thanks!

What is the Tier 4 (General) student category? wrote:The Tier 4 (General) category is for adult students who want to come to or remain in the UK for post-16 education.
Just because UKBA doesn't get to know that you're studying on Tier 1 (General) visa doesn't essentially mean that it is allowed. Don't assume things as you may have to pay a heavy price. Check beforehand and then plan / do accordingly.[url=http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/studyingintheuk/adult-students/]Do you need to apply for Tier 4 student visa[/url]? wrote:You can study in the UK without needing to apply for a student visa if:
- you are a national of a country in the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland;
- you are a British overseas territories citizen, unless you are from one of the sovereign base areas in Cyprus;
- you are a Commonwealth citizen with permission to enter or stay in the UK because at least one of your grandparents was born here; or
- you have no conditions or time limit attached to your stay.
This definitely clarifies things for me.- you have no conditions or time limit attached to your stay.
Why dont you get a student visa if your intention is to study and then you always have the Tier 1 PSW option

I haven't questioned whether dependents can do it or not! The dependents get what they need without having to work for it ...... main migrants need to qualify for extension, dependents get it for free! Main migrants need 5 years for ILR, dependents get it within 2! So, forget the dependents, they get all the perks anyway!ukswus wrote:All I can tell you is that my wife (Tier 1 general partner) IS allowed to study. As I said, i got confirmation on this, in writing, both from the HO and British embassy. She also had no problem registering with the police, nor during our numerous interviews upon enering the UK at the airports.
Now, I admit there is a possibility that Tier 1 General MAIN applicants (as opposed to their dependants) may not be allowed to study full time (although I doubt it). For this, I specifically suggested writing directly to the Home Office, which is the ultimate way to establish the truth. What I don't agree with is the reasoning that you must absolutely possess Tier 4 in order to study, hence Tier 1 holders cannot study on this visa, by definition.
I know for a FACT this is not true.
