Rejected petition Extend & Implement 2 years of PSW visa for tier-4 students graduating in 2020.

Instead of introducing the 2 years post study work (PSW) visa for students in 2021, implement it for current students (2019-20) too.
The PSW should be automatically issued to all students who are graduating in 2020, as they are also unintentional victims of COVID-19.

More details

There has been no provision or instructions to institutions about international students about PSW.
The current students should be equally eligible for work opportunities after the COVID-19 crisis is over.
The spread pandemic of has stopped recruitment process & current students should be provided with extended time of minimum 2 years to cope up with the current scenario.
