Appendix A:

In relation to your programme at the University of Sunderland, I wanted to take this

opportunity to remind you of some extremely important information about your student
visa. Please note that links and information were correct as of June 2021. For the most
up-to-date visa information, please check the Home Office website

If you are studying a degree level (Level 6) or below there are limits on how long you
can study in the UK for.

Current students needing to re-sit part of their programme are subject to the limits
outlined below:
• two years for programmes below degree level (excluding time spent on a Child
Student visa);
• five years for undergraduate degree programmes.

Your studies in the UK should also represent academic progress – for example, upon
completion of a masters degree (Level 7) you are expected to progress to an Level 8
programme.

If you have previously studied in the UK at any time at the same level or at a higher
level, the university will contact you for further information. If you did not indicate your
study in the UK on CAS Shield you should contact the Immigration Compliance team via
the chat function within CAS Shield. Should you require any assistance accessing CAS
Shield please contact [email protected]

Please note if your programme requires an ATAS certificate you will need to include this
in your Student Route visa application.

Acceptable financial evidence:

There are several different ways of showing the financial evidence required in support of
your application. It is crucial that you check that your financial evidence meets the UK
Visas and Immigration requirements outlined at https://www.ukcisa.org.uk/Information--
Advice/Visas-and-Immigration/Student-route-eligibility-and-requirements

Ensure that your funds are held, in an active account for 28 consecutive days before
making your application. The UKVI often contacts the financial institution to ensure the
funds are genuinely held and can be verified.

Check that your bank statements are from one of the UKVI-approved financial
institutions and that you have all the necessary documents to meet the UKVI
requirements

Your bank statement must not be older than 30 days at the date of your visa application.

Funding required:

You will need to show the outstanding balance for tuition fees that is shown on your
Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS). We strongly recommend that you pay
your tuition fees in full before the CAS is produced, to ensure your CAS statement is as
accurate as possible.

In addition to tuition fees the UKVI also require students to show evidence of
maintenance funds, you will need to provide a bank statement proving availability of:

• £1,334 per month to cover living costs for each month of your programme up to a
maximum of nine months -£12,006 for London students, and any tuition fees which
you still owe.

If you are providing a bank statement with a currency that is not in £ (GBP), the
University of Sunderland strongly advises you to add at least £250 to the minimum
maintenance funds stated above in order to avoid problems in cases of currency
fluctuations.

We strongly recommend you keep the funding you show in your account until after you
have received your visa.

Please use the Oanda currency converter to ensure you have the correct amount of
money in your bank account.

Immigration Health Surcharge:

You will likely need to pay a healthcare surcharge (called the ‘immigration health
surcharge’ or IHS) as part of your immigration application. The payment will go directly
into the National Health Service (NHS), and applicants will be entitled to receive the
same cover as a permanent UK resident. You can start using the National Health
Service (NHS) in the UK when you’ve (i) paid the healthcare surcharge (or are exempt
from paying it), and (ii) your visa or immigration application is granted.

New students applying for Student Visa entry clearance visas can use the start and end
dates shown on their Certificate of Acceptance (CAS) to calculate how much the charge
will be. The cost is based on the length of the visa you are applying for.

The surcharge is calculated as £470 per year for each year of your visa. If your visa
includes part of a year that is six months or less you will be charged an additional £your
visa includes part of a year that is more than six months, you will have to pay £470 for
this period. For example, if your CAS states that your course starts in October 2023 and
ends in June 2026 you should be granted a visa from September 2023 until October
2026 and the immigration surcharge will therefore be £1645. You can use the Home
OfficesSurcharge tool to check how much you will have to Home Offices Immigration
Health Surcharge tool to check how much you will have to pay.

The Student Visa application form will direct you to the Immigration Health Surcharge
(IHS) portal where you can pay the required charge.

I hope that this information is helpful to you and I wish you all the best for your studies
at the University of Sunderland.
