June 16, 200718 yr have just received a uk student visa for my girlfriend...on the visa it says "work and any changes must be authorised" does this mean she can't work or can she work 20 hours per week as i've read before? Who or where would ai=uthorise any changes........would be very gratefull for some reliable info.............
June 16, 200718 yr If she is a bona fide student, then she can work up to 20 hours per week. In holiday-time, she can work 40 hours per week. Scouse.

Scouse. ok thats good, she is doing a 1 year english course at an international college....still not sure about this "work must be authorised" bit on the visa cheers Rest assured. The Scouser is (almost) correct. She can work 20hours/wk term time without asking permission from anyone. There is no restriction on hours worked outside term time (other than the EU working time directive as it applies to the UK) despite what many websites and the scouser says. edited by Koratcat1:spelling
June 17, 200718 yr Hi, My girlfriend is here in a student visa and her visa says the same thing and we took advice and the 20 hours a week term time and full time in the holidays is spot on like the scouser said and you donrt need to do anything else just get a job.
