Post study visa

A post-study visa, also known as a Graduate visa in the UK, allows international students to remain in the UK after completing their studies to work or look for work. This visa is designed to facilitate the transition from studying to working and allows graduates to stay in the UK for a specific period (usually 2-3 years) to gain experience and potentially find sponsorship for a Skilled Worker visa. 

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Eligibility:

• You must have successfully completed an undergraduate, postgraduate, or PhD degree (or a qualification listed in the Graduate Route's immigration rules). 
• You must have studied in the UK on a Student or Tier 4 (General) student visa. 
• You must apply for the Graduate visa while in the UK. 
• You must have held a valid Student or Tier 4 (General) visa for the duration of your studies. 

Duration of Stay:

• The Graduate visa is generally valid for two years after graduation for students with undergraduate or Masters degrees. 
• PhD students can stay for up to three years. 

Work Rights: 

• The Graduate visa allows you to work or look for work in any sector and at any level without a minimum salary requirement or the need for visa sponsorship, except for certain healthcare roles like doctors and nurses, which require specific eligibility criteria. 
• You can search for official work visa sponsorship from your existing company or other firms.

Key Considerations:

• The Graduate visa is not a path to indefinite leave to remain in the UK. It's a stepping stone to help international students transition to work in the UK. 
• You need to meet the eligibility criteria and submit all required documents to apply for the Graduate visa. 
• The Graduate visa is part of the UK's points-based immigration system

Fees: 

The fee for a UK Post-Study Work visa, also known as the Graduate visa, consists of two main components: the application fee and the Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS). The application fee is currently £880, while the IHS is £1,035 per year of the visa's duration
