| Answer : Dear Shamsheer, Thank you for your e-mail. Thank you for your e-mail. As per the new point based system, the student visas are referred as Tier 5 visas and one can switch from student category to a work category. Depending on your qualification and experience you can either try for a Tier 1 general (old HSMP) or the Tier 2 general (work permit). You can still work after the completion of your course as long as you have a valid leave to remain. Regards, Sajeev Kooran |
