<content:encoded><![CDATA[Hi guys, is there any of you having trouble to renew your student visa? are you already under the two month extension? 

If the rumours are true, All current non degree foreign students from any institution (including public and private ones) are no longer entitled to apply for /renew a student visa, can anyone confirm or throw some light on the matter?]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[It started affecting people in April, in Dali anyway. They stopped giving student visas to the over 60s a bit earlier than that, then nailed down all student visas shortly after they stopped travel and closed the skies. Not sure if it's connected to the virus response, or if it's a new permanent policy. Rumours that it was going to happen had been circling for a while before it actually did.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[@Mildred: not really adding much to the conversation there...

I haven't found any official notice, but I've been told by a few sources that the government is planning to overhaul the student visa system, and has suspended all new non-degree student visas until the new rules can be finalized. 

Hopefully those who wish to continue studies can hold out on the temporary stay extensions until this is resolved.

It's quite likely that a lot of programs and private schools will lose their ability to sponsor visas, though. A lot of schools are holding their breath right now.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Thanks for that imput. As I said there will be no official information about it due to the ongoing circumstances and businesses holding their breath is never a good solution when income ceases or slows down. Thats one good thing about university. They teach you about economics and multicultural relationships. Shame most Uni students dont remember this stuff really especially if they went in for a Disney Relations course. Disney is huge!

So, yeah. There are no student visas for foriengers now. Maybe in 2-4 months. Up to you whether you stay or not to find out. Hope this answers the question in a more appropriate manner.]]></content:encoded>
