It's hard to say tbh. I would have thought that the govt would want to move quickly cos they know that if the figures remain this high, or get even higher this time next year, that would mean political extinction for the Tories (such as Labour has suffered after the public blamed Blair for open door immigration).

I would say to carry on with your plans but stay extra vigilant. In the days of T May, the home office changed policies and rules routinely and without major announcements as most changes did not require a new immigration bill. So they are able to move fast once the will is there.

Zahra29:
These are figures for legal migration only. It doesn't include irregular migrants (this is usually a finger in the air estimate) or the channel boat crossings (which is estimated for be around 35,000 this year)

Of the legal migration, the highest numbers are student visas, followed by refugees from Ukraine, Syria and Afghanistan, and HK British overseas passport holders.

The govt can't do much to change the numbers from the likes of Ukraine or Hong Kong, for obvious reasons. So they have indicated that the focus will be on tightening the student visa route and some work visa categories to try to get the migration figures down

Really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things.
I changed jobs 3ce last year within the NHS with the 1st job starting in January and the 4th one in December - the 1st 3 were with the same Trust and department at 3 different bands while the 4th was with a different one at 1 band lower. Got 2 other offers and about 9 interview invites within the same week that I got the offer from the new Trust.

Alarm bells all over the news....

AFAIK it would only apply when you're writing your dissertation, so that'll be the end of the second year or whenever you're writing the dissertation. Therefore, you'd be free to work full time in summer of the first year.

koonbey:
Are you doing a masters course?

If 'yes', then after the Christmas holidays and semester break, you can only work full time AFTER submitting your dissertation, whether that's during summer or after. From then on you can work full time.

yea right, cool. When either of her parents too pass on, the husband better sit his ass down in the UK and not move an inch, or I will personally swear for him. But then again, quite a few people I know abroad (less than 5yrs away) wey lose their parents, didn't come o. They only sent money, na ebi do burial. So this may actually be the new normal, paying last respects over the phone. Oh well!

Thanks baba mii… I need that money

kode12:
Yes. I believe there are people on this thread who have done that.
I would advice you speak with your schools international desk, they’d better be able to advice you. I think for many, they’d have the option of switching to part time, but since you only have dissertation left, it should be an easy pass.

Your change in Visa status doesn’t have anything to do with your education though, staying in school or dropping out is at your discretion unless you are on a scholarship. People switched from Tier 4 to Tier 2 and still completed their studies.

Up to you and your employer.

The 20hr/work restriction is a Tier4/Student visa restriction, if change visas, you're no longer bound by the rules of the former visa

Hello house and to the elders here.

I have a bit of an issue I need clarity on.

I work for a company in the US prior to moving here in September (Payoneer payment). I also have some private clients I work with and get paid via Upwork (it’s an easier option as PayPal doesn’t support Nigerian accounts). Ultimately, both earnings end up in my Payoneer account.

I’ve moved to the UK (student dependent) and I’m at the final stage of some interviews that look good (I intend to juggle any job in the UK with the existing setup as it’s pretty easy for me).

Question is, do I have to report the US earnings for UK tax purposes (I don’t intend to touch the $), what about the Upwork payments received for services offered?

Kindly enlighten me please.

Got married 2yrs ago and we have a beautiful daughter, she has this dream of studying in Canada and I support her dream.

Our immigration consultant recommend she apply alone to increase chances that i and our daughter can join her later.

Now visa is out and she will be travelling next month. I have read numerous stories about how women change when they travel out.

Should I be worried?
