Change the Date for Immigration Rules that were imposed on 17th July 2023.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The government has just announced new rules that are implemented on 17th July 2023 that student will no longer be able to switch to Work Visa there should be a date that students came after this date will no longer be able to switch because someone came back in 2019 is also suffering. Please check!
Its not fair for students who came before coronavirus they have struggled a-lot here in UK so kindly please specify a date that students came after or before this date won’t be able to switch but please don’t cover all the students because students contribute a lot in UK economy and its unfair to some of students. Its like that when the government needs than everything is legal and when they don’t its burden and bla bla bla.
