INTERNATIONAL STUDENT – POST STUDY WORK VISA

The IGS and the similar Fresh Talent are replaced on 30 June 2008 by a new 2-year scheme, Tier 1 (Post Study Work), as part of the UK's roll out of a Point Based System. The UK Border Agency describes Tier 1 (Post Study Work) as "a bridge to highly skilled or skilled work. People with Post Study Work leave will be expected to switch into another part of the points system as soon as they are able to do so".
Those who already have IGS permission when Post Study Work launches will be able to switch into the new scheme if they wish, gaining an additional 12 months' leave.
In most aspects, Tier 1 (Post Study Work) will be very similar to the schemes it replaces. However, the published points allocations and draft rules for the scheme have revealed some key differences:
• Applicants must have obtained their qualification with the immigration status of student or dependant. Those who obtained their qualification with another status, for example Working Holiday Maker or Work Permit holder, or who completed their studies outside the UK, will not be eligible.
• The "cash reserve" required from IGS and FTWiSS applications to cover initial basic living costs has always been unspecified and flexible, and hence it allowed for applicants with very different costs of living to meet the eligibility criteria. Under Tier 1 (Post Study), an amount for the cash reserve has been specified. Those switching in the UK from student to Tier 1 (Post Study Work) will need to show a cash reserve of at least £800; those applying for entry clearance in their home country will need to show at least £2800.
• The application fee to extend leave in the UK under Tier 1 (Post Study Work) is expected to increase to £400 (from £395 for IGS). Entry clearance applications for the scheme at a British Embassy or High Commission are expected to increase to £205 (£200 for IGS).
What documents you must send?
You must send two recent passport photographs and your passport, along with proof of the following:
• original certificate of award;
• original letter from United Kingdom institution;
• Maintenance (funds).

Their applications would be dealt under the Transitional measures that would be put in place once the complete TIER 1 would be introduced.
The time scale for introducing Post study work visa is in July 2008.
