虽然知道持 Tier4
-可以全职工作在完成学业的情况下+4个月的期限
-即便是没有完成学业，也可以做半职的，20小时每周
但不清楚,这个TIER2申请时是否需要之前TIER4的学业完成,比如论文还没答辩最终提交??
因为毕竟是从学生签换到工作签,是否得证明之前读的课程结束?
我个人觉得还是看你的sponsor的要求，如果他们要求你完成学位的话，那是肯定的，如果他们不需要的话，我觉得home office也不关心啊。你想还有人从海外申请英国的T2，难不成home office还要求他们先在英国完成一个学位么？
(好吧，我错了，:p)
别被LS误导
从T4申请T2，HO要求提供证明完成学业的资料的，要不学位证，要不学校的信
不过博士除外
如果持有Tier 4希望直接转Tier 2的申请人，一定要在本科或是master学位拿到，签证结束前这段时间拿到COS并递交申请，否则，只能离境申请limited的COS从境外申请Tier 2。在这段时间申请是不需要做就业市场测试的。
多谢.
我也是这样理解的.
不过我就是"除外的博士",
不过我也之前UK毕业的硕士,貌似可以,只要TIER2雇主同意(因为当时职位要求里,Phd也不是essential, 不过是desirable)
多谢.
我也是这样理解的.
不过我现在是PHD,最终答辩交论文拿学位,还得等好久~~~
哈哈,
前提当然是TIER2雇主同意.
跟海外申请不同的是,你现在拿着个T4,
可能像版主说的,一般是要学校证明学业完成,
不过PHD除外
你没有问题的
有研究生毕业证
博士读的超过了12个月
博士在读超过12个月就可以了，不用等毕业。
haha,多谢,
我都读了3*12个月,
你的意思说,这样从T4到T2,就不需要证明学业完成了.
嗯，不过需要你读博士的证明
那如果是ACCA这种非学位的T4呢？转T2是不是要通过全部考试？
acca的课程不能享受学生签在英国转工签的条件。
我是11年用以前的学生签证（Tier4前身）转的Tier2，用的就是国内硕士的学历证明和07年的雅思成绩，没有给博士在读证明也顺利拿到签证，因为按打分系统算硕士就够分了…不知是不是个例，不过仅供参考…
为什么？怎么不符合了？

只有满足以上条件的学生类签证的持有者，才能在英国境内转换Tier 2工作签证，不满足的，只能回国申请入境签。移民局的目的是之允许应届毕业生有机会留在英国转工签。ACCA不属于以上的情况，所以反而比其他任何Tier 1的签证更不利于转Tier 2工作签证。
谢谢你的解答，那如果拿到与ACCA合作的Oxford Brooks大学的degree呢，是否有机会转工签
如果课程是最后授degree的就可以。
