CAN I SWITCH TIER 4 TO TIER 5 (CAS)?

Post by mardoufox » Sun Sep 07, 2014 7:08 pm

Hello,
I'm currently in the UK on a student visa. I've just recently graduated and been offered a job. I was working on a tier 5 creative and sporting visa application and planned to go in with it this week. But realised i may not be able to switch while in the UK. Is this right?
Will my application be denied since I'm swticthing from Tier 4 to 5 inside the country, even if everything else is in order?

Thank you! :D

You cannot switch to tier 5 in country from tier 4.
You would have to apply from outside the UK
