International students must have completed an eligible course at a UK higher education provider, with a track record of compliance with the government’s immigration requirements to apply to the Graduate route. Students on the Graduate route will be able to work or look for work for a maximum period of two years or three years for Doctoral students after they complete their University education.

With this development, you will be able to stay in the UK for another 2 or 3 years after your education. You can easily secure the status you need to continue living, working, and fulfilling your dream in the UK- says Border and Immigration Minister, Mr. Kevin Foster.

The government wants the UK to be a country of choice for the world’s brightest talent, who aspire to a career at the highest levels of business, science, the arts, and technology.

The new route will open for applications on July 1 2021, to international students who successfully complete a degree at the UK’s undergraduate level or above.

The Graduate route will be unsponsored, meaning applicants will not need a job offer to apply for the route. There will be no minimum salary requirements nor caps on numbers. Graduates on the route will be able to work flexibly, switch jobs, and develop their careers as required.

The new route will help the government achieve the ambition set out in the International Education Strategy to increase the number of international students in higher education in the UK to 600,000 by 2030.

Coronavirus concessions for students unable to travel to the UK due to the pandemic have also been extended, recognising the continuing disruption many faces due to international travel restrictions.

Applicants who began their studies in Autumn 2020 will now have until June 21, 2021, to enter the UK (updated from April 6, 2021) to be eligible for the Graduate route. Students who began their studies in January or February 2021 will need to be in the UK by September 27, 2021.

The Graduate route comes as the government unveiled plans to launch another new immigration route that will help start-ups and fast-growing firms recruit the talent they need to innovate and grow.

Also, highly skilled migrants with a job offer from a recognised high-growth firm will qualify for a visa without the need for sponsorship or third-party endorsement.

UK Immigration Cover Letter – Guide To The Most Important Immigration Document

In this article, we discuss the following questions in details:

1. Should you include a cover letter with your UK Immigration application?

2. What should be in the letter and how should it be presented?

Cover letter needed or not?

A cover letter is a document that presents your application to the caseworker. It is not usually necessary but is very important if your case needs an explanation or you do not meet some of the visa requirements in the usual way.

So the short answer is, if you meet all the requirements in the usual way and there is no need for an explanation then it will be preferred that you add a short cover letter but can proceed without it.

 

So, what exactly is a Cover Letter?

 
UK’s Points-based Immigration System and cover letter

The cover letter should take the form of a formal letter. It should be concise, precise, and unambiguous.

This means you try to keep your letter 1.5 to 2 pages long. As a guide, paragraph one should state what the application is for, at what stage you are at, and what you want the caseworker to do.

 

Example of paragraph one of Cover Letter

I am making this application for Leave to enter as a Parent of a Tier 4 child, as my son is studying at a privately funded UK independent school. I would like to accompany him to the UK.

Then, you should have a paragraph just briefly stating your background information. Next, you should go through each item from the requirements, paying more attention to items where you do not meet the requirements in a straightforward manner.

If you have a complicated work arrangement, explain.

It is advisable to be concise and precise, so avoid long sentences, collect all the relevant information, and present it in this one document.

If you will furnish some of the documents at a later date, in this case, you should try to be precise as possible and actually provide the document by the agreed date.

Once you have gone through the various requirements and how you meet them, you can then conclude the letter with a summary and invite the caseworker to write to you. if further documents are required to arrive at a positive decision.

Finally, thank them and sign off. Remember, identifying risks and trying to provide an explanation and supporting evidence increases your chances of success. Ignoring problems usually makes the problem bigger, the Home Office is not just an agency, it can make or break your future.

Be polite and not too heavy, you want something [from them], for the caseworker, it is just another file they need to consider, as part of their job. Nothing more. Make their life easy by presenting a good cover letter that takes them smoothly through your case bundle.
