Are you allowed to work on a Student Visa?

[eljean]

yes...

Can I work?
You can take part-time or holiday work, but you must not:

* work for more than 20 hours a week during term time unless your placement is part of your studies, has been agreed with your educational institution and leads to a degree or qualification awarded by a nationally recognised examining body
* do business, be self-employed or provide services as a professional sportsperson or entertainer, or
* work full-time in a permanent job.

If you are coming to the UK as a student for six months or less, you must ask the Entry Clearance Officer (or the Immigration Officer if you do not need an entry clearance) for permission to work.

Are you allowed to work on a Student Visa?

yes, holders of student visa are allowed to work...as they say not for more than 20 hours per week...but only if you follow that really...

i knew someone who's on a student visa and is also working more than 25 hours a week...even during term time
