Hi,
Can PSW holders work more than 40 hours legally? If so, please can someone paste the link so that i can show to my employer who says that i can not work more than 40 hours. Thanks

The policy guidance does not mention everything that you can do; only things that you can't do. There is no restriction on the amount of hours or individual jobs that you can take so, obviously, there is nothing in the guidance that mentions a restriction.

PSW visa holders can certainly do the fulltime work (any contractual+overtime hours). There is no where you can get a link/guideline that specifically mention the number of hours a psw visa holder can do.

Yes, I suppose one might, but that would not be official proof, would it?

This is a matter for your employer to find out for themselves using the services provided by the UKBA.

My employer said i cant work more than 40 hours. if i want to work more than 40 hours per week, then i should have some official proof, the manager said.. so i am totally confused.

See page 40 of the following document.

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... iew=Binary

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... alworking/

Certain qualified people and their dependants who meet the requirements of the UK’s immigration rules are granted leave to enter or remain here for a limited period of time without being subject to work conditions.

If you have a BRP your employer can request an online check on the card.

You are breaking the law if you employ a person who does not have the right to work in the UK. You can be fined up to £10,000 for each illegal worker or face criminal prosecution.
This may be the reason why ur employer is afraid but for this he has to go through what paperpusher has suggest.
There is one more thing that u or ur employer can send a email at UKBApublicenquiries@ukba.gsi.gov.uk and ask them ur r on psw visa so how many hours u can work?
And they will reply by email.
