Let us tell you that this rule will apply to those students who will take admission in UK in January next year. Before this, spouse visa was also given to students going to study in Britain. After the studies, the student and his spouse also got a two-year work visa.

Those who don’t have talent. Not only this, they also do not have any technical education, which can be of any benefit to the UK.

The move is seen by UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Home Secretary Suella Braverman as an attempt to control the rate of migration into the country. The new rules come into effect just days before the UK Home Office releases figures on migration and the number of migrants expected to reach 7,00,000 in 2022-23.
