Can We switch from Tier2 general to Student visa from UK

Post by toofunky2000 » Fri Jul 07, 2017 6:07 pm

Hi Guys,

I have couple of questions regarding switching from Tier 2 to tier 4, company licence revoked, no curtailment received as only 6 months left on the Tier 2 visa.

Question 1; Can I apply to switch within the country? or I have to apply from the Home country?

Question 2: Applying from home country, does it it impact on the continuity of residence in the UK?

Appreciate your response. Thanks

regards
TAK

Hi Sicario7,

Did you manage to get your visa from home country?

Dear Members,

I am in bit of of same situation, Studied Masters for one year and One year from PGD, then 2.5 years on Tier 2, however Tier 2 licence revoked, haven't got any curtailment letter yet. Have got 6 months visa left, expiring in Nov-2017.

Q:Am I OK to apply within the country for Tier 4 Visa?if I manage to get a CAS from uni?

I have contacted university they said we can't offer you a place as your Tier 2 licence has been revoked.

Q: Is there any problem to get a Tier 4 visa from the home country on Level 8?

Please advice.

Thanks

If that is their final answer, then you cannot make a Tier 4 application anyway. But it seems a strange reason to refuse to sponsor under Tier 4.
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.
