I'm assuming that she isn't eligible for Tier 1 on her own?

TS, I would like to borrow your thread to ask a few questions. Hi Seniors, I got my Tier1(G) in April and entered UK in June and found employment immediately after that. My wife at that time and until now is working in the UK under work permit. I would like to apply a dependant visa for her so that...

There can be any number of reasons for people rejecting applicants from non-EU citizens. Nobody can deny that sometimes beloved/xenophobia is a reason, but you cannot say that it is the only or even the biggest reason. What happens if the job requires a lot of travelling across Europe to client sit...
