Student Visas

Proceeding contribution from Joan Ruddock (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 June 2013. It occurred during Backbench debate on Student Visas.

I want to relay to the Minister my experiences and those of my constituents in respect of those moving from one course to a higher course who need to renew a visa. It is taking at least three months, and during that time the student has no access to their passport and cannot travel for academic or personal reasons. Is the Minister really satisfied that that is good enough? Will he put more resources into this whole area of endeavour in the Home Office?
