英國(guó)留學(xué)簽證新政策雙語(yǔ)介紹

    The UK Home Office announced last year that it will be interviewing more visa applicants,

    including Tier 4 students. As part of the initial roll out in China from April 29 students who apply for

    a Tier 4 visa in China may be required to be interviewed at the visa application centre when they

    submit their application. Selection for interview will be random and genuine students will have no

    need to be concerned about the process. The interviews will be conducted by visa officers in the

    UK via a video link.

    去年， 英國(guó)內(nèi)政部公布了將對(duì)更多簽證申請(qǐng)者進(jìn)行面試， 其中包括申請(qǐng)第四層級(jí)學(xué)生簽證的申請(qǐng)者。在中國(guó)，這將于今年 4 月 29 日開(kāi)始試行，申請(qǐng)第四層級(jí)學(xué)生簽證的申請(qǐng)者在簽證申請(qǐng)中心遞交材料的同時(shí)將有可能被要求面試。專(zhuān)家介紹說(shuō)，參加面試的申請(qǐng)者將隨機(jī)選取，真正的學(xué)生不需要擔(dān)心。面試將由英國(guó)簽證官通過(guò)視頻進(jìn)行。

    This new system will improve the integrity of the visa decision making process and act as a safety

    net to filter out any remaining abuse. It will also protect genuine students and institutions from

    those seeking to abuse the immigration system and ensure the UK continues to attract the

    brightest and best students from China. The interviews will not require much time and will better

    facilitate the application process for students.

    這個(gè)新的面試體系將使整個(gè)簽證流程更加完善，并防止學(xué)生簽證體系被濫用。這將保護(hù)真正的學(xué)生和院校，確保英國(guó)繼續(xù)吸引優(yōu)秀的中國(guó)學(xué)生。面試過(guò)程不會(huì)耽誤學(xué)生太多時(shí)間，并將更好地幫助學(xué)生申請(qǐng)簽證。

    The UK continues to welcome genuine students from China. In 2012, the UK Home Office issued

    over 57,000 student visas, with an increase of around 9% compared to 2011. With increased

    quality applicants for student visas in China, refusal rates have dropped from 14% in 2010 down

    to 2% in 2012. As you can see from the very low refusal rates, there should be very little impact

    for China as we already have very high quality students applying to the UK.

    英國(guó)繼續(xù)歡迎中國(guó)的優(yōu)秀學(xué)生赴英留學(xué)!2012 年，英國(guó)內(nèi)政部在中國(guó)簽發(fā)了超過(guò) 57,000 份學(xué)生簽證，比 2011 年增長(zhǎng)約 9%。在中國(guó)，因?yàn)楦哔|(zhì)量的學(xué)生申請(qǐng)不斷上升，拒簽率從 2010 年的 14%下降到 2012 年的 2%。從上述這么低的拒簽率可以看出，赴英留學(xué)的中國(guó)學(xué)生質(zhì)量很高，所以相信該措施對(duì)中國(guó)學(xué)生影響不大。

    We highly appreciate your continued support for UK education and our visas procedures.

    Students should rest assured that this is not an added barrier but a continued effort to improve the

    efficiency of the visa process, while preventing abuse of the immigration system. It is the UK’s

    intention to continue to welcome genuine students. We are grateful for everyone’s understanding

    and assistance with this matter.

    非常感謝各位一直以來(lái)對(duì)英國(guó)教育和簽證的大力支持。請(qǐng)大家放心，這并不是為學(xué)生設(shè)置障礙，而是英國(guó)政府希望在不斷提高簽證效率的同時(shí)，防止對(duì)移民體系的濫用。英國(guó)將一如既往地歡迎真正的中國(guó)學(xué)生。再次感謝大家的理解和幫助。
