Ticked if the visa is valid today. Useful in conjunction with Visa Is Valid as this might be unticked, but Visa Valid Today is ticked, so we have a problem in the future. Used in conjunction with Visa Days to Expire so you will know how imminent the visa expiry is.
Visa Days To Expire
If Visa is Valid is not ticked, then this value is the number of days between now and when the student's visa will expire

There will be visa compliance setup with your installation of Schoolworks. Search for the word 'Visa' in the reports system.
