Immigration Status: Sharecode

When will the student be required to upload a immigration status sharecode? 

A student is moved to CAS Issued (and onwards).

Note: the document is usually set to Required for regions like EEA where the students get a digital status instead of the Vignette

What information will be requested from the student?

• Sharecode

• Sharecode generated date

• Immigration status

• Valid from and until dates (if applicable)

Note: no upload is required for this document

Key Updates in CAS Shield for Digital Visas from the Enroly blog

1. Seamless eVisa Transition: Starting November 1, 2024, students will receive an eVisa rather than a BRP. CAS Shield prepares institutions for this shift with no additional right-to-study checks required, as UKVI shares data with larger institutions, reducing administrative work.
   
   

2. Integrated UKVI Decision Letters: CAS Shield now automatically collects UKVI decision letters, simplifying right-to-study checks across student documentation—whether a vignette, BRP, or eVisa.
   
   

3. Expanded Share Code Verification: Share code verification for student visas is now fully supported, accelerating the verification process and ensuring compliance across teams.
   
   

4. Flexible Document Uploads: CAS Shield’s checklist feature now allows students to upload visa-specific documentation based on their visa type, providing a smooth transition as BRPs phase out.
   
   

5. Automated Notifications & Status Updates: CAS Shield automatically notifies students about required documents and visa status changes, reducing the administrative burden on teams.
