It is a dream for an international student to find a reputable job in the United Kingdom after completing their academic course. The country of the United Kingdom provides a lot of opportunities for international students, and thus it is an excellent option to stay in the country after completing their academic courses.

The candidates are required to apply for a separate T4 student visa if they have decided to stay in the UK to start their job career. Every student who has completed his higher education in the country would be deemed eligible for a UK post study work visa, as per the new guidelines laid down by the immigration department. It would enable the students to stay for a further two years in the United Kingdom. The period could be utilized by the candidates to work or to find a better profession in the country.

 The government has included the provision of UK post study work visa to retain the best global talents in the national human resources. The nation is in high demand for talented human resources to mark its presence in the field of business, science and technology, industrial division, etc. It is from the Indian subcontinent that the country is expecting a massive influx of talented human resources. The human resources from the Indian subcontinent have the global reputation of being the cheaper workforce. In the year 2019, the immigration department of the United Kingdom has accepted around 96 % of the visa application from India.

The visa application of candidates with a PhD has a very high probability of being selected since the UK is looking forward to a leap in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). The government would announce a new graduate route for the candidates who complete their academic year of 2021. You could expect some significant changes in the policies in the wake of COVID 19 pandemonium. Though the government still needs to validate some sections, we have explained every vital aspect of the UK post study work visa in the below sections. Let us have a detailed look over it.

Eligibility requirements for UK post study work visa/ Graduate route visa.
The candidate should hold a Tier 4 visa after completing his graduation course in the United Kingdom. The candidates who would be considered for the UK post study work visa in the academic year of 2020 – 2021 would be: –

• Students who have started their one-year master’s degree in the academic year of 2020 – 2021.
• Students who have started two years master’s degree program in the academic year of 2019 – 2020.
• Students who have started their three-year PhD program in the academic year of 2018 – 2019.

The candidates who would complete their other graduate program in 2021 would also be considered for UK post study work visa. In simple terms, the students who have started their PG program in the academic year of 2019 – 2020 will not be able to apply for the UK post study work visa. However, they are eligible to apply for the skilled worker tier 2 visa in the United Kingdom.

The process to be followed when the UK post study work visa expires?
The candidate is required to either apply for a new visa or leave the county after the expiry of the UK post study work visa in two years. After the expiry, the candidate is only allowed to apply for a general work visa. A general work visa could only be permitted if the applicant would provide the proof for minimum salary or skills. In short, you should possess an occupation that comes under the guidelines of the Tier 2 visa. The profession providing the salary above £ 30,000 annually would be considered eligible for a general work visa.

It should be taken into account that the student doesn’t require a job to apply for the UK post study work visa. If the candidate remains unemployed, the visa period will not get affected.

Role of University in acquiring UK post study work visa.
The eligible candidates could apply for the UK post study work visa irrespective of the universities in which they have studied. The only regulation in this aspect is that the university should be recognized by the British government. The criterion should always be checked by the international students since most of the universities often lose their recognition from the British government for defying the visa regulations and withholding poor track record in education standards.

Role of studied course in acquiring UK post study work visa
Government of the United Kingdom has levied no restriction on this outlook and hence the candidates from any academic stream could apply for the UK post study work visa. The visa rules for post-graduation programs in the STEM field were already relaxed by the government in 2019. As per the new policy, the rules and restriction would be reduced for all of the graduate programs.

NOTE: – The candidate is expected to have pursued a full graduation course in the above context.

The requirement of sponsors for acquiring UK post study work visa
The applicant doesn’t require a sponsor for acquiring a UK post study work visa. It would be a huge advantage for international students since the acknowledgement from the employer is required in other working visas. The government of the UK would consider the university of the student as the sponsor, provided that it is registered in the recognized list.

Impact of Brexit over UK post study work visa.
 It is estimated that the exit of Britain from the European Union would significantly curtail the rights of EU citizens in the UK. The new policies in the UK post study work visa have eliminated such suspicions by classifying EU students under Tier 4 visa. Now EU students also have to apply for UK post study work visa to stay further in Britain. The framework for Brexit is still under progress, and we would update you if there is any significant change in the policy.

Would graduates getting affected by the outbreak of COVID 19 also be considered for UK post study work visa?
The international students who are continuing their courses through online media would be considered for the UK post study work visa if they would arrive back to the country before April 6, 2021. The students have to complete the course via face to face classes after this date.
