Hi Im Currently Tier 4 Student Visa Which Expires After I Complete My Level Course, And Im Looking

Posted on March 31, 2017

Hi I'm currently on a Tier 4 Student Visa which expires after I complete my A-level course, and I'm looking to take on a year-long internship during my gap year in the UK but I am unsure as to which visa in particular would allow me to do so as I fall short of some requirements such as a university degree. I'm looking at Tier 5 Temporary Worker visas amongst others, do you have any suggestions as to how I can apply for leave to work over this short period?

I had the pleasure of working with the lovely Sanae. To give some background of my situation, I was dealing with a student route visa last year (2022) from the US. Delays hit my application due to multiple reasons; some involving my faults, with not sending the passport for the vignette but rather uploading an image of my passport on the application portal. Then UKVI not providing clarity on my situation, it left me with a lot of uncertainty. Escalations after escalations were being raised and eventually, my course deadline day arrived. I was not able to attend my studies for the year, but luckily the uni was kind enough to be understanding and deferred me to this year (2023). This year I needed tranquility with the chaotic process that is immigration, due to the uni taking an extended amount of time with the CAS and also not knowing how my prior application would affect my new one. With all this, Sanae was the right person for the job. She's professional, thorough, very respectful and timely. A lovely person to work and talk with, she never made me feel like uncertain. If Sanae is a reflection of OTS as a firm, I can guarantee you that the entire office is full of capable professionals that are willing to help. I went through a lot of solicitors before I found OTS, but from the moment I contacted them I knew I was going to get the help and service I needed. I can't recommend this firm or Sanae enough to anybody needing help, sometimes it is worth paying a little bit more out of pocket to acquire things, especially immigration related needs. I wish Sanae all the best in her future work, I will surely use her as a first reference if I ever need representation again. Case Workers: Sanae Sahebjalal
