2. Secondary work visa

Finding a Tier 2 work visa is another way to stay in the UK, but the requirements are relatively strict.

First of all, graduates need to find a job with an annual salary of more than 20,000 pounds before the visa expires, and the company has permission to hire overseas workers from non-EU countries.

This is really difficult for fresh graduates who have no work experience. Generally, enterprises will require a three-month internship period. With the increasing requirements of the British Immigration Bureau for work visas, it will become more and more difficult to apply for such visas. For students whose visas expire in 1 month, it is not easy to apply for a Tier 2 work visa!

The international student internship program is supported by UKTI and the Bank for International Settlements, and approved by the British Home Office. It belongs to the exchange visa category authorized by the 5th floor government.

The simple sentence is: I guarantee the visa when you find an internship, and I never worry about refusing it.

You found a paid internship for 3 months-12 months (at least 6.75 pounds/hour);

The enterprise is a British registered company that has business in China or intends to develop the China market;

You graduated from any university in the UK with a bachelor's degree or a master's degree, or China University 2 1 1. As long as a new visa application is issued before the visa expires, you can legally stay in the UK until you get a visa.

-Investment, cooperation, entrepreneurship and finding internships.

The internship visa is only one year short, and then you must go back to China to apply for other visas. If you want to live permanently in the future, this visa is tasteless.
