Your residence permit can be revoked, if you do not meet the conditions, which your residence permit was granted on the basis of.
Your residence permit can also be revoked, if the basis on which your residence permit was granted, is no longer present.
A residence permit is granted on a specific basis and on a number of particular conditions. The basis and the particular conditions may differ from scheme to scheme.
A revocation depends on the specific basis and the conditions in effect for the residence permit in question. If the basis is no longer present or the conditions are not met, SIRI can revoke the permit.
You will recognize the basis as the type of residence permit you applied for, e.g. a study permit or the permit granted after the Pay-limit Scheme.
The conditions for your residence permit are stated in the letter you receive when granted a residence permit.
Here are some examples of when we can revoke a residence permit (the list is not exhaustive):
Higher educational programmes
You are not actively studying in your programme
You no longer live at the same address as your host family
You are no longer married to the person on whom your permit was based
Intern or Positive List et al.
You change your job
You no longer live together with your sponsor, e.g. your spouse, partner or parent
The Pay Limit scheme
You earn less than the Pay Limit Scheme’s minimum amount
Generally
You receive public benefits which you are not allowed to receive with the residence permit you have
