[quote=APAULT,265040]I think the rule was there before but maybe it has been tightened. An interesting issue with a 4 year degree rule is that it in Britain a BA honours degree is 3 years, it always has been and has always been recognised as being of the required academic standard. If you have a degree it should not matter that it is from a college provided it has University status. I teach in a Chinese college that offers degrees and is able to do so because it is affilliated to a recognised University. So if you have a degree, you should look at finding a way of explaining this...can you supply some evidence of this? As you come from the northern hemisphere you probably span 4 years....so you need to embellish this. In my experience they only look at at photocopy of your certificate, you don't have to produce further proof. Working on an F visa as an employee of a local company is not really permitted but many people are doing it with the knowledge of the authorities. There is always a risk of a crackdown in your area and youa re required to leave. Your situation will not change for getting a Z visa because you are already here. You can only apply for a Z visa from outside the country and the issues you raised are the same. But if you are on an F visa, you can probably renew it. If your company doesn't have the contact to get the Z visa on the basis of your papers, you might try a visa agency. From what I have heard many are ex-PSB people and.... yeah, one way or another they have contacts. Hope u can find something useful in that lot.[/quote]
