YES, TIER 4 VISA RULE CHANGES ON 4 JULY 2011 WILL STOP WORK & DEPENDANTS FOR STUDENTS AT PRIVATE COLLEGES
Posted Under: News
The UK Border Agency is pushing ahead with further Immigration Rule changes coming into effect on 4 July 2011, which will have serious consequences for Tier 4 students studying at private colleges.
From 4 July the UK Border Agency will:
- restrict work entitlements to migrants studying at higher educational institutions (HEIs) and publicly funded further education colleges only;
- restrict the sponsorship of dependants to those studying at postgraduate level at HEIs on courses lasting at least 12 months, and government-sponsored students on courses lasting at least 6 months;
- require education providers to vouch that a new course represents genuine academic progression;
- ensure that maintenance funds are genuinely available to the applicant, by introducing a declaration on the visa application form;
- commit to publish a list of financial institutions that we consider, on the basis of experience, do not verify financial statements to our satisfaction in more than 50 per cent of a sample of cases;
- introduce a streamlined application process for low-risk nationals applying to attend courses with Highly Trusted Sponsors;
- extend the list of courses for which students must receive ATAS clearance;
- restrict the ability to deliver accountancy courses accredited by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) to those sponsors accorded platinum or gold status by ACCA; and
- clarify the position of overseas universities with campuses in the UK.
How does this affect you?
This means that if you renew your visa for a private college or change college after 4 July 2011, you will not be able to work and you will not be able to sponsor your dependant.
A revised version of policy guidance document for Tier 4 migrants, and a statement of intent summarising the new student visa policy, can also be downloaded from UKBA website.
How does this affect current students in the UK who have valid student visas?
No need to panic. If you already have valid leave or visa, you will not be affected by the new rules. However, if you transfer college from 4th July, you will follow the new rules.

i am a student in uk doing NVQ 4 in a highly trusted college SO i need to ask if i am countinuing this status can i sponser my depentant?the new changes affect it or not?

Do the new changes affect me?
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m a student who is waiting for my visa result to study in UK.My school is private school and the course I’m going to studying equal to NQF level 7 .What I’d like to know is that from 4 July , if the tier 4 students like me are allowed to work .And if so, I wonder the maximum hours.In the old immigration rules,the students are entitled to work 20 hrs per week.
Best Regards,
Lizzie
I think these are best rules because mostly students can
Get proper education in the Uk

Dear sir,
I just want to confirm that i took the admission in university so can I get the permission for part time work in UK
I’m really confused about this statement “No need to panic. If you already have valid leave or visa, you will not be affected by the new rules. However, if you transfer college from 4th July, you will follow the new rules.” I my case. my renewal month of Visa(tier4) is December 2011. I’m still studying in the same college but different course so is it applicable in my case this changes that I can not have a part time job or above statement. which is which…

Hallo,
I am studying ACCA level 6 in private college(A rated) from last 4 months ..n i extend my visa on april 2011…but now i am planning to get married n i wanna apply for dependent from india…..is it possible for me..?
Dear sir,
MY vise is finishing in feb 2012 so if i dont change the college then the new rule will effect me or not?
ukba is misusing foreign students, wn they want money, they are opening door for them. now they are closing doors as Olympic in next yr. no human concern…because, u should ukba should have informed all students regarding up coming changes when they applied for student visa…ukba is not respecting the human rights….senseless rules they r bringing in. u look at the India and learn something from other countries’s immigration rules. the UK is depending upon the people from other countries. if they have decision taking ability, the would have looked at quality of colleges. ukba should hv restricted colleges not no of restricted which will happen ultimately….it is completely common sense…..u should have given us enough time to maintain bank balance to apply for tier 4 dependant visa. completly senseless dicision. dont thing that it sur cleverness and rulingover other other. it shows that u r down in economy…learn wt is grouth and hard work from the countries like india and china..
Hi, i applied for visa extension for ACCA course in june 2011. my college told me they can issue me CAS letter as the new rules will be implemented from 4th of july 2011. but later Home Office refused my visa on the basis my college is not an approved Gold or Platinum status college by ACCA so can’t issue CAS for ACCA. when i talked with my college they insisted that this is a mistake by Home Office and my application was submitted before 4 july 2011. But i am not so sure. I will be grateful if someone could provide me with correct information regarding this matter. Thanks in advance.
dear sir may viza fineshe in feb 2012 am tir 4 student if i extand viza u allowed work me? plz inform me plz >>> thanks to much.

I have study visa tier 6(study in ACCA . private college in London). what is rule for depentant for me. from 4 July 2011.
As recently announced,what will be the hope of Students in Private colleges with their depedants in UK as regards up keeping of the existing family.
hello sir. how big will be the impact of the new ruling regarding tier 4 – student visa? they’re lots of individuals coming here in the UK usually from third world countries because until now agencies in those countries are promising much more greener pasture in terms of wages received. within grounds of student permit, some are working exceeding the required hours and usually they are the one who complains painly..
if UK strictly implements rulings on students coming in, immigration just designates windows specially for student to screen a legal student in a legal school compared to a student enrolled in a fly by night unregistered schools or training center wherein the main purpose is to find a job not to study.
hi, im studing acca and my visa will ended oct 2012 and currently i have part time work permit.however my college has been suspended and i have to change my college.if i change my college would it effect my work permit?
thanks
The rules changed for students applying after 4 July, so what ever your visa conditions were prior to 4 July will stll apply.
If you need a definite answer you need to sit down with an adviser who can go through all you documents.
Suspension means they are suspended from recruiting new students. Existing students are ok as long as the licence is not revoked.
If you want to change college, UKUS has links with hundreds of courses, colleges and universities. They can help you find another college and their service is free.

Hello,
is there any chance for private college student to work in short future, i am doing ACCA and have completed 7 papers so far, i heard private colleges have entered a petition for change this rule,is this true??
I am on Tier 4 visa and my wife she is on PSW (Tier 1). Can I switched as her dependent inside UK.
It will affect those who renew visas with a private college after 4 July. If you want to work best stick to a government university.
UKUS are recommending university courses (with a CAS from a government Uni) which are being run at private campuses at fees which are 40% lower.

Dear Sir / Madam
As per new immigration rules regarding student visas working hours are only allowed to students of university or publicly funded institutes.
I would like to ask you that ACCA students fall in what category, as I know, no university is offering ACCA tuition. Plz explain ACCA students are entitled to any working hours or not?

Hi, I am currently on post study visa which end on the 7ht of april 2012.I wanted to register for a one year course to take 6 acca subject after exemption since I got an MBA already from UK.I want to do it at BPP university, I just want to know if I will be allowed to work part time to earn valuable practice if I register with them for the march intake.
Many students are working more than 20 hours, its like 35/40 hours per week even they are restricted to work more than 20 hours in different work places like pub, restaurant, mostly in carer agencies etc. I am too a student applied visa after 4th july 2011 and got visa with status of NO WORK. Everybody who are given work permit of 20 hours are also student and we who are not getting any work are also student. It doesn’t mean that everyone who comes from the rich family can afford the whole expenses, it’s not true. Students are here to acheive higher level of education which is accepted globally and some students are just here to earn money. I really appreciate the rules and regulations of UK government. But don’t you think this is a direct discrimination between one student to another.WHY WHY AND WHY? Please give at least 20 hours work permit to all the visa holders.
Assumimg you have been resricted to a ‘NO WORK’ visa because you are at a private college, you may want to consider moving to a government funded university?

hi,our college has been suspended and we are still waiting if for the result to come.my semester suppose to start from september due to ukba matter it extended till 26th october and now we havent received any updates from college.in this case if my part time employer wants to sponsor me for work permit,am i eligible to apply or it will affect my current visa status incase work permit visa refused?
hi, i came to know that private funded institutes have filed a case against home office UK regarding student visa changes ”right to work not allowed”. So my questions is, what is the current status of this case in court? What do u think that Will they allow right to work to private institute students? How long will it take for final decision on this matter by court?
Thanks
This is correct. Private colleges feel that it is unfair that only students studying at a government funded college can work. These Judicial Review cases take a long time to reach the courts as there are thousands of cases in the pipeline (keeps lawyers off the streets!). Any decision by the courts will be published by Immigration Matters
hi i want to know my old is blacklisted and i have 25 days left.now i nee d to apply new visa or not. or if i apply for a new visa and i will take admission in highly trusted college. then work is allowed to me and my dependent or not. plz send me reply quickly.
Dear Sir,
I am Student of ACCA in private college from October 2010 can I apply dependent visa of my wife in November 2011.i want to confirm that the rules of 4th July 2011 are applicable on me or not.I have visa for next two year.please reply me as soon as possible.
I am student of PGDBM.My college is closed for the last one month without informing us.We donot now where they have gone.We just started our course in september.As now we donot have any information about our college what should we do now
If the college has closed for good, which looks likely, you need to find a new provider. Has the licence been revoked? If so you will be given 60 days by the UKBA to find a new college.

Hello sir, can student sponsor dependent at private college and can dependent work full time. What will happen if we stay here after college has been suspended. Is that possible to obtain visa after we past 60 days letter from home office.
Dear Sir,
I am a Tier4 (general) student here in Manchester since 07-02-2012 and has been enrolled in a course for Masters Professional Diploma in Legal Practice which course lasts for 18 months and the same also bears a level 7. As the course duration is more than 12 months so can I keep my family (dependents)with me here in UK despite the fact my visa sticker mentioned “Student tier 4 (General) not recourse to public funds, work prohibited”. Actually i want not to do work but to keep my family with me here.
Thanks

Pls let me know..
it is good most muslims are coming like this and working by taking fake degrees .Let those foolish muslim go out.we need only good muslim
‘Trusted’ one day, then ‘highly‘ trusted, after filling in some forms and paying more fees, the next. But who knows what level of ‘trusted’ they will be rated as in the future? Lowly trusted, partially trusted or not trusted at all?
The only real ‘trusted’ colleges are government colleges and universities, which is why only their students will be allowed to work part time while on a student visa.
