New Rules for U.K. Students & Dependent visa | UKVI update | UK Immigration update

Changes to student visa route will reduce net migration
On 23rd of May 2023, the UK govt announced major changes to the UK student and Student Dependent visa.
New government restrictions on student visa routes will substantially cut net migration by restricting the ability for international students to bring family members on all but post-graduate research routes and banning people from using a student visa as a backdoor route to work in the UK.
So in this video, I will cover the summary of the UK announcement made on 23rd May made by the UK govt(UK Home Office) which covers 5 new updates.

Agenda 1: Cover all the 5 Updates which was announced by the UK Govt on 23rd May 2023
0:37 1st Update :
International students will be banned from bringing dependents to the UK with them unless they are on postgraduate research programs like PhD.
This change will come into effect for students starting from Jan 2024

New government restrictions to student visa routes will cut net migration while protecting the economic benefits students bring to the UK.

02:39 2nd Update: Student switching visa

International students will no longer be able to switch from the student route to work routes in the UK before completing their studies. This ensures that students complete their degrees before applying for a work visa.

The UK government will take action against education agents involved in improper applications that prioritize immigration over genuine educational opportunities. Choose reputable agents or consider applying directly to UK universities.

My student visa expires on 09/06/24, my course end date was 09/02/24, but I have failed in 2 modules, I reseat and my result will be published on 06/06/24. I am doing job in BUPA as a care assistant for last one year and they provided me sponsor with the job start date of 10/06/24, which is the next day of my current visa and with that I have already applied to switch my visa from tier 4 to healthcare visa. Now, most of the lawyer is saying that my visa will be rejected as I must pass all my modules, and I am very stressed about all these. Can you pls, pls share your thoughts on it by replying to my comments. Thanks
