Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me. God bless you. He has decided to look into pursuing a Master’s by Research in Australia and Canada.

So sorry to hear about your ordeal .. . You could have asked for a study visa extension a for a resit exam. Unfortunately withdrawing the appeal brought that section 3C leave to an end losing the right to work. Solicitor should have known this.

HO has that habit of purposing delaying to frustrate these type of applications. Securing a Skilled Worker sponsorship (MRes / PhD / Global as well) is likely the best option you should consider thoroughly . It's difficult but not impossible.

I know firsthand how tough this road can be. I pray that God gives you the unwavering strength to get through this.

The prisons I hear still give sponsorship for those who want to work there so you may want to look at that as well in addition to earlier suggestions on Masters of research or PhD but I hear if your current status is FLR it may not fly for fresh study applications.

Please let your alternative option to move to other countries be your main focus now. The US is tough but your husband’s professional experience if he also has some awards could be a good candidate for the 01 visa or try to get another study visa to Canada preferably a masters I’ll suggest may be you this time and if you have healthcare experience get into the Canada pool as you study for a possible Permanent residency (they still gave 3500 people this week)

Good afternoon, everyone. Please, I sincerely need your advice and guidance.
My husband and I came to the UK in 2023. Unfortunately, my husband resumed his studies quite late, which affected his academic schedule. As a result, he had to resit some of his papers, and this eventually caused him to submit his final project late.
Because of the delay, we were unable to apply for the Post-Study Work (Graduate) visa within the required period. Instead, we applied for Further Leave to Remain (FLR).
After my husband graduated, we later applied for the Graduate/PSW visa, but unfortunately, the application was refused on the grounds that he was no longer eligible. We appealed the decision, but about a week later, we also submitted an FLR application after applying for a fee waiver.
After approximately one month, the fee waiver was granted. Our lawyer subsequently withdrew the appeal, and shortly afterwards, my husband's share code stopped showing his right to work.
We contacted the Home Office, and we were told that although my husband does not currently have the right to work or study, he can remain in the UK while his FLR application is being considered.
His FLR application has now been pending for about five months. During this period, he has been unable to work. His employer requested a share code, but he could not generate one because of his current immigration status.
We are now trying to decide what the best option is for our family. We are considering:
Relocating to another country through work or study.
Finding a job, possibly with the NHS or another organisation, that can provide visa sponsorship for my husband.
My husband is an accountant with eight years of professional experience. He also has an MBA in Financial Management and an MSc in Financial Technology (FinTech), which he obtained in the UK.
He has now been unable to work for about five months, and this situation has been extremely difficult for our family. Thankfully, I am still working, but supporting the family alone has not been easy, especially with children.
Please, if anyone has been in a similar situation or has genuine knowledge of UK immigration, skilled-worker sponsorship, or possible options in another country, I would sincerely appreciate your advice.
We would really like to know what options are realistically available to us at this point and what steps we should consider taking while we wait for the Home Office to make a decision on his application.
Thank you so much in advance for your advice, encouragement, and any helpful information.
