What the petition asks
Recently, the UK Government has announced to re-introduce a Post Study Work Visa for Tier 4 (General) Students, there is information that this may not benefit students graduating in 2020. We kindly request please to be extended and implemented to current Tier 4 Students in the UK to ensure equality.
Coming Tier 4 Students who are going to study in the United Kingdom may benefit from the new Post Study Work Visa is the ideology behind the petition. We as international students appreciate the UK Governments efforts towards the country and international students. We hopefully ask them to consider our request, due to current 4 month period after graduation is insufficient time to find work and start our career. We kindly request them to give us equal opportunity and chance to build our future!
