Is there any chance of issues if I go in September and start working from September again in UK for a Master's?
Yes, there may be issues if you start full-time work immediately after arriving in the UK on a Student visa in September.
- On a Student visa, you can work up to 20 hours per week during term time and full-time only during official vacation periods.
- For most master's programs starting in September, there are no official vacation periods at the beginning, so you are limited to part-time work when your course starts.
- To work full-time from September, you would need a work visa (such as the Skilled Worker visa), which requires a job offer from a licensed UK employer and meeting specific salary criteria.
- The Graduate visa (post-study work visa) is only available after you complete your course.
Visa rules are subject to change.
