How do I apply for the "graduate interest-free" loan and what can it be used for?

In the contract, it is said that I am eligible for the "graduate interest-free" loan to cover the VISA related fees. May I know how to apply, when to apply, and what aspects it can cover?

    You can apply for up to £9,000 interest free. Our team will reach out in a month or 2 with the paperwork for you to complete, this will then be sent across with your first payslip

    I thought it was £7000, I have already applied for it thinking this was the maximum we could apply for. Will I be able to change it

    Thank you, Matt. As you know, changes in the visa rules may affect the eligibility to be granted the Skilled Worker Visa. May I ask if you reckon we should just proceed with applying for the loan now or wait until the Home Office confirms the rules?

    Additionally, generally, how long will it take to be approved?

    Thank you, Mollie. Is there any assistance that EY offers to help with paying the visa or IHS fees?
