Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether international students who have to start their courses online as a result of the covid-19 outbreak will be eligible for the Graduate Route visa despite spending less time than is required physically in the UK under the terms of that visa.

The Graduate route will be introduced in the summer of 2021. We have been clear no migrant will be penalised due to circumstances outside their control related to Covid-19, including where they have had to start their courses online as a result.
