eVisas
Sharing your eVisa status with us
When you have an eVisa, you will need to share it with us so we can have evidence of your immigration status on file.
How to give us your share code
- View your Visa status and get a Share Code. If you are asked for the reason for providing the share code, select Something Else or Another reason. Your share code should begin with the letter S and have 9 characters.
- Submit your Share Code to us using our form ('Immigration Status - Share code"). This form is in the UofG Helpdesk and you may need to log into it first. Please don't provide share codes to us by email.
- You should receive a notification that your request has been fulfilled within 48 hrs. This means we have successfully checked your status and updated your student record. If there is an issue with your share code or we need further information, we will contact you.

If your eVisa has a mistake on it
If your eVisa has a mistake on it...
You should report this to UKVI using their webpage. After your eVisa has been corrected, please let us know by providing a new share code on the UofG Helpdesk. There are some errors that we are required to report to UKVI directly. If we notice an error on your eVisa, we will report it to UKVI and let you know.
