Visa Extension for 2019 batch international students.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

International Students who have enrolled in January 2019 and September 2019 must fet an extension due to COVID-19

The international students who have enrolled in September 2019, did not get 2-years PSW and due to covid and lockdowns the 4 months given by the Govt is going in vain due to lockdowns and national holidays. There's less to slim chances of these students to find a job or convert their visas to tier 2. It is unfair to the students of 2019 batch who have completed their masters in October 2020. Kindly grant these students extension for at-least another 6 months so that they can find jobs in their fields.
