Anyone legally living in the UK is covered by the NHS, there are no two ways about this.

Not sure about you visa question - was it with reference to NHS and renewing your registration with your GP or was it just regarding the visa???

If NHS - then there is nothing like renewing it because your visa has changed from Tier 4 Student to Tier 1 PSW

If regarding your Tier 1 PSW, then it does not renew itself. Depending on your PSW Visa being 2 or 3 years long, you need to ensure to meet all requirements for visa extension 12 months prior to the last date on your visa
