[quote=APAULT,421521]First, visas can never be changed. You can apply for a new one and will get processed like any other. The new visa always cancels the old visa and you would not be entitled to study. It is not realistic to get a work visa for the vacation period. You can read up on work visas in this site ....it is complex and answer your questions, but anyway the bottom line is it's not the appropriate way to go. The information I obtained a few years ago is that a student can work with the permission of the university. In practice, I believe quite a few students work without permission. So stick with your student visa as long as you are studying. While you do that check out whether the employer really can get you a work visa.....there are many rules and they must be accredited and the job must be one which needs a foreign expert. [/quote]
