Give Ukrainian students with Tier4 visa (no work allowed) the permission to work

Closed 80 signatures

What the petition asks

Change the legislation to allow Ukrainian full-time students who have been under parental financial support to work at least some hours. Give Graduate Visa to ALL Ukrainian students who graduate this year even if their institutions don’t have “Trace Record” and for free as it costs around £2000
Many Ukrainian students had already been residents by the time war started so they are not eligible for Sponsorship scheme. If they don’t have any family in the UK they are not eligible for Family scheme either. Their parents can not financially support them anymore for obvious reasons. Their visa stands “no work” “no public funds”. Soon they will run out of money. What are they suppose to do, just what options are there? None. They do not need charity, they need the right to support themselves!
