Thanks a lot Tahir. this is what I was looking for...

so that means if my wife comes to the UK on a new entry clearance, she might fall into new catagory and will have to complete 5 years before being eligible for ILR...

thanks Tahir. please can you elaborate on this ILR 5 year rule/send me a UKBA link, how this affects dependents?

Yes Vinny, please read thru my first post....
My visa expires on 01/08 as well and I will get it extended in July before my dependents apply for their entry clearance in India.

Their current visa will expire on 01/08, they are traveling to India on 24/07 and will apply for visa in Delhi around that time.
Since they will be coming back in the end of August, so will need a visa to come back.

Thanks Vinny, but does it make any difference? and can they apply for an entry clearance before expiry of their current entry clearance/leave to remain?

Thanks Tanvir.

will wait for some more expert advise...

If you do not include a birth certificate of the child, the risk of refusal is very high (personally I would say a refusal without doubt, but that's just my opinion). It is not difficult to arrange for a duplicate copy of birth certificate from the relevant authority in India, so I would suggest th...

Hi, I am holding a Tier 1 General and now when I am actually moving to UK, wanted to apply for my dependants (wife and son). The birth certificate I got for my son from the authorities in India is hand written and has some over writing and mothers name is not clearly mentioned. hence I do not want t...
