NVQ Visa Processing time

[darren-b]

thanks for this info. what if i had someone that will sponsor my studies there aside from my sister. she's my aunt and she's working abroad. the account is on her name. is it ok? then, there's also an account under my name. is there also a need of affidavit of support from my aunt and also her certificate of employment for her to justify that she can support my studies? thanks in advance.

It's not allowed as only official sponsorship is allowed now. You need to have the money in an account in your name (could be joint with someone else) for 30 days prior to your application.

my sister advised me to take up NVQ. I am really not a nursing or any four year medical course graduate. But i finished a six month caregiver course aside from my bachelor's degree. will they consider me to enroll on NVQ? i am a commerce grad, by the way. and also, my work experience is more of office and administrative work. thanks again. God bless!

I've seen suggestions that the UK government is being tougher on students and checking that the course is of benefit to them rather than being an excuse to come to the UK to work. You may have to be able to provide good evidence of why you want to switch careers. Also bear in mind that even on an NVQ you are only allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours a week (including any work which is part of your course).
