How to extend the validity of postgraduate study visa in the UK?

What should I do if I need to extend the validity of my visa for studying in the UK? It sounds like a very complicated thing, but it is actually ok to handle it. Dear me, let me tell you how to extend your study visa in the UK.

British study visa renewal policy

Students who have studied in the UK for less than 13 months (excluding preparatory courses) and graduated from Oxford University, Cambridge University, London University, Imperial College London University and Bath University are eligible to apply for a six-month visa extension after graduation.

1. At present, this new policy has been put into trial operation, which is only applicable to postgraduate courses of Oxford University, Cambridge University, Bath University and Imperial College London University in London 13 months or less, excluding the time of preschool language courses.

2. Don't blindly believe in the validity period. Because the validity of T4 student visa will be extended for four months after the end of the course, the implementation of the New Deal is actually only two months longer than the original validity.

3. This policy is applicable to applicants who apply for T4 student visa after July 25th, 20th16th. Students who meet the above conditions but apply before this time need to renew their visas in the UK if they want to enjoy the benefits of this policy.

4. Regarding the provisions on not providing materials in the application, there is no blind superstition or speculation. ATAS and tuberculosis detection are still necessary materials. The deposit must still meet the 28-day history, and the visa officer will randomly check the students and ask for supplementary materials to check whether they meet the application requirements.

5. Students' spouses and children can enjoy this policy if they apply for T4 dependents at the same time. If you apply separately, you must submit a complete set of materials.

6. Students who continue to study for a master's degree in this major do not enjoy this preferential policy.

7. Simplifying the materials does not mean that you can enjoy the expedited service at the same time, and the expedited service still needs to be paid extra.

Newly added schools

Cardiff University, King Smith College, London University, Harper Adams University, Newcastle University, Queen's University, Royal Academy of Language and Drama, Bristol University, Durham University, East Anglia University, Edinburgh University, Essex University, Exeter University, Glasgow University, Leicester University, Liverpool University, Manchester University, Nottingham University, Reading University, Sheffield University, Southampton University, Trinity David University, etc.

On July 25th, 20 16, the British Home Office issued the latest policy on student visa (Tier 4). If students apply to one of the top four universities in Britain, namely Oxford University, Cambridge University, Bath University and Imperial College London, London, their master's degree program (excluding pre-school language courses) does not exceed 13 months, and they can get 6 years after graduation, regardless of whether they apply in Britain or abroad. Applicants do not need to provide funds or academic certificates, simplifying visa application materials and processes.

Previously, the validity period of Tier 4 student visa was extended by four months after the end of the course, giving graduates a four-month buffer period to arrange graduation matters, while the New Deal provided eligible students with two months more than the original validity period. Students can use this time to find a job in Britain, and if they can get the guarantee from their employers, they can change to a work visa. It is reported that this is the first time that the UK has relaxed the visa for international students since the Ministry of the Interior cancelled the work visa for PSW graduates in April 201February.

This year, the British policy has been relaxed, and graduate students can postpone their job search for six months. The number of pilot schools has also increased from 4 universities to 27. However, it should be noted that this visa is only for graduate students.

Renewal method of study visa in Britain

1. Mail:

The main point you need to remember is that it should be sent to the British Border Agency by registered mail or express mail (express mail, which is safer) within 4 weeks before the visa expires.

2. Interview:

You need to make an appointment in advance. If you want to deal with it urgently, you need to apply to the immigration center of the Ministry of the Interior in Crydon four weeks before the visa expires.

3. Renew through the school:

In order to apply for student visa renewal, many universities in Britain have joined the British Immigration Service, and students can renew their visas by contacting the school.

The Immigration Bureau will contact the school in a unified way, which is the safest and safest way to apply.
