    Question Work visa to student visa.

    I am employed on a work visa until August 2019 (Although my job ends July.), I have applied for study for September starting and they have advised me to apply for a student visa for this as soon as possible. Are immigration going to cancel my work visa immediately or will they let it run out and issue the student one back to back (but early)? Cedars will be sponsoring the application.

    Likely you need to submit a letter showing your employment has ended.

    Okay, thank you!

    Another spot i’m in is that I’m wanting to leave the country around the time of the entry permit, as it says on or before. However my employment visa will still also be valid up until that time - is there any way that I can leave on the employment and enter on the student? Or will i have to submit terminations of employment before attempting this?
