Visa

1. Study courses are designed to be full-time, thus if you work at the side, your results will suffer. Furthermore, as you already mentioned, you can only work a limited time, which is usually not enough to survive on. Thus you need savings.
2. No idea, but I heard it's not easy to get.
3. This won't work: You must register in the country you reside in.
4. As far as I know, times you spend on a student visa (or any non-residential visa) don't count towards a permanent residency.
