Once you have submitted your documents online, the next step is for your documents to be verified. You will either be required to attend an in-person appointment, or the check will be completed remotely. Generally, if you are sponsored by City St George’s for a Student Visa, you will be required to attend an in-person ID check. If you are an international (non-British or Irish) student who is not sponsored for a Student Visa by City St George’s, we will aim to complete your ID check remotely.

For the in person registration, you need to have all your documents available, including your share code.

Students who are checked remotely must monitor their emails regularly as the Visa Compliance Team will be in touch if further documents are required to verify your right to study. In complex cases, students may be asked to attend an in-person appointment.

When and where should I go?

Student Visa holders will be required to attend an in-person ID check and will have received the booking link by email. Please ensure you have completed stages one and two before your visit, otherwise we will not be able to assist you. All documents you bring must be originals. If you do not bring all the required documents, we may be unable to complete your registration. Please check this guidance for details of the documents you will need to bring.

Non-British or Irish students who are not sponsored on a Student Visa will have their documents checked remotely in the first instance, and will only be asked to attend an in-person ID check if instructed.

Deadline to complete your ID check

You will have a maximum of 21 days from your course start date to finalise your ID check and complete registration. Please note, if you are on the Bar Vocational Studies or Solicitor’s Practice courses, you will have 14 days from the course start date to complete registration.

You must ensure you register within this time period. We cannot extend our latest registration date, so it is essential that you make every effort to register by the deadline.

If you do not fully register and complete all five stages within the deadline, we are legally obliged to report this to the Home Office, who will then take action to curtail (cancel) your immigration permission (if applicable).

When you come to complete Stage 4 of the registration process, you will have the opportunity to collect your Student ID card at the same time.
