Post Brexit changes to toughen stand on Student Visas

Top UK Immigration Lawyers

Among the major changes which would be hitting the immigration scene badly in UK post Brexit, the international students would also be taking a major chunk of burn. The UK movement which started to curb the rising migration in the country is believed to target the international students who come in the country to study and also hope to get opportunities for work. The government want to break the link between studying and settling down in the country for further work.

Since it came to power, the government has tried to make it more difficult for international students to stay in the UK after completing their studies, as part of its failed plan to cut net immigration to below 100,000 per year and reduce visa fraud. The most significant step in this direction was the scrapping of the post-study work visa in 2012. This had allowed non-EU students to stay in the UK and work for up to two years after graduation.

The current system allows the students irrespective of their talents and the university’s quality, favourable employment prospects when they stop studying. But the new rules would put an end to this. Now the new rules would bring about major changes for the students coming to study “low quality programs” in Britain. The new rues also discourages these students to take up further jobs and prolong their stay than the course tenure.


Amidst all these confusions, several international students are found to seek specialised legal help in order to tackle the situation. If you find yourself in any such situation or need an expert advice pertaining to some case, contact top UKimmigration lawyers of Fusco Immigration.
