partnership Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 How strict is the government on the 20-hour rule? If someone hasn't worked for ages and then does 3 weeks full-time work during exam time when they have no exams would this be viewed as a breach?

paulhand Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 You are permitted to work 40 hours per rolling fortnight (14 days) whilst the course in in session. This includes exam periods. So the simple answer to your question is, yes, it’s a breach of the condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrussell Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 If a student works in excess of the permitted hours, and immigration finds out, the penalties are extremely severe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
