Student Visa Check (UK)

Student visa documents are the Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies, identity, funding, and course records used to assess whether an applicant meets the UK Student route under the Immigration Rules.

What is this?

A Student visa review usually looks at the CAS, passport and identity records, course details, tuition fee position, financial evidence, parental consent where relevant, and any prior immigration history that affects eligibility. The paperwork must fit the current Student route requirements and the evidence format expected for the application.

This route is governed by UK-wide immigration rules, but evidence requirements still depend on the applicant's circumstances and route history.

Key legal requirements

  • the CAS details, provider information, course dates, and fee position must match the application record
  • identity, academic, and financial documents must meet the route-specific evidence requirements in force at the time of application
  • sponsor, guardian, or parental consent evidence should be complete where the route requires it
  • all dates, names, and reference numbers should align across the CAS, application, and supporting evidence

Why this matters

Technical inconsistencies in funding, CAS data, or identity evidence can lead to refusal even where the course offer itself is genuine.
