英国硕士留学什么签证？
英国硕士留学可以办理的签证类型有：Tier4 student visa， Tier 4 child visa 和 Tier 4 dependant visa
1. Student visa (Tier 4)
This is the most common type of UK visa for international students， and is required if you wish to study in England on a course lasting longer than six months. A Tier 4 Visa application can be made up to 3 months before your proposed start date at the British High Commission or the Consulate-General. It costs £75， but may rise to as much as £209 depending on where you are applying from！ Once approved， you will receive an ‘Entry Clearance’ stamp on your passport which allows you to travel to London， where you can then make use of the visa while it is valid. Your visa status lasts whilst you remain in the UK， so once you leave， whether that was for holidays or business meetings， you would need to reapply again should you want to return to continue studying. You will also need to pay the Immigration Health Surcharge during this time – more details below under health surcharge！
A Tier 4 student visa offers freedom to work up to 20 hours per week during term-time while studying for a degree， and full-time during vacations when they have obtained an approved qualification. In addition， holders of Tier 4 visas can bring their spouse into the country without needing to apply for a separate visa！ The cost of working depends on how long your course lasted： courses shorter than two years require a Certificate of Sponsorship from an approved employer who paid no less than the minimum national wage rates specified by the government——this could mean around £6.40 per hour； those with degrees over four years were entitled to earn up to the National Minimum Wage Rates after completing training ！ Please see here for further information about employment options on Tier 4 Visas： URL For any enquiries regarding Tier 4 visas， please contact our immigration experts directly： [email protected]！
