Immigration & visa fees to rise again?
UK Immigration Minister Damian Green has issued a written ministerial statement outlining a proposed hike in visa and in-country application immigration fees. Full story.
You could qualify for a tax refund if you are an overseas student, work permit holder, Tier 1, Yellow Card or any visa type - even if you are no longer legal!
Wherever you are working in the world, whether on a work permit or student visa or even illegally, the bad news is you will have to pay tax.
The good news is that with the help of taxback.com you may now be able to claim a lot of this money back! Full story.
Tier 4 student visa laws ?harm universities' says former Education Minister
UK universities are missing out on students from India because of the Government tightening immigration controls, a former education minister warns.
Labour's Baroness Blackstone said the country risked being in a "very unfortunate position" when it came to attracting lucrative overseas students - worth billions of pounds to UK universities.
UK Immigration crackdown on Tier 4 students sees 70% fall in applications to private colleges
City AM reports that the UK government's policy to cut immigration is having a devastating effect on private higher education, according to a new report published last week. Prohibiting some international students, those studying at private institutions, from working part-time to support their studies in the UK must be reversed, the Centre Forum think tank argued.
Immigration fraudsters jailed
Three men from the North West London area have been jailed for their part in a conspiracy to supply fraudulent ID documents, the UK Border Agency reports.
What do British people think is their greatest national treasure? - A bacon sandwich!
Not the rolling green hills and a rich heritage - the humble bacon butty is what makes Britain great. Hot bacon in a sandwich with lots of ketchup and butter is what Britons love most about the nation.
