Question to the Home Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government for what periods in 2009 and 2010 did the then UK Border Agency stop accepting new applications for a Tier 4 (General) student visa in North India.
This question was answered on 6th April 2017
The UK Border Agency stopped accepting Tier 4 applications from North India in February 2010 owing to concerns about fraudulent applications. The rules on the policy were strengthened during 2010 and the acceptance of applications resumed in August of that year.
