Hi Vinny, Many thanks for the links. Based on the details in the link looks like there is a possibility that we travel to UK as planned on the 8th and after reaching there we send a mail and start corresponding on this topic with home office which will be followed by actually sending the passport fo...
Dear Members, We had applied for Tier 1 dependent Visa for my 3 dependents : Wife and 2 Kids.The application was made in VFS Pune, India Today we received the passport with visa: My both the kids visa has the same expiry date as mine which is 25-05-2013. However my wife's visa expiry date is 25-03-2...
Subba, I replied this in another thread. Online application is not mandatory.Take printout of the form and fill it. That is enough. Send a mail to VFS and take appointment that will be easy. However you can even go without appointment but you might have to wait in queue. Hi Susheel, I have one more ...
Subba, To answer your question............for Tier 1 dependent online application in India is not mandatory. My family applied on the 4th July and the printed application was submitted. In India at present they have made only application for Tier 2 Visa mandatory to be filled online. I had written a...
Your list is perfect. Add a cover letter and keep copy of all pages of passport. Though it is not a must requirement just keep it. I also got the first page of the passport certified by a solicitor. Again that is not a must. Also if you have a Biometric permit, you need to have a copy of that. But i...
Hello All, I came to UK a month back, i am working and have my appointment letter and have received only one months payslip. I want to apply tier-1 dependent visa for my wife and 9 month old daughter and following are my queries 1. My wife has maintained £3200 that is required for my wife and for ...
Risingsun, So sorry to hear this. I will suggest the following: 1. You shd go to the marriage registrar office and ask them to reissue marriage certificate with correct spelling. Hope they give the original this time. If they still give "Truecopy" ask them to give you a letter that this is...
I noticed in couple of threads that members have also submitted CD/DVD with recording of the entire marriage. I think that is a great idea if added with 1 and 2 @Aruni, Ramesh Right, I am of opinion that one should submit the following for dependant visa application: 1. Marriage Certificate. 2. Phot...
It depends on the rush. If you have take take only for one person than chances of getting in a week or two is higher but if it is for a family then the chances are lower. Give it a try. Do your homework abt the location that suits you. In London you have Elephant and Castle location and Croydon also...
I had faced the same problem. Sometimes it takes couple of days for details to be updated in the website. What I did was to call at the number given for biometric appointment and booked it . Calling at the number is very painful as most of the time it will be busy. But I kept trying......... What I ...
Many Congratulations!! If you want pls update in the relevant sticky thread. The details really helps to analyse. Cheers, Jacob It took exactly 3 months for me, 4 weeks from Biometric. And I was given all the points i have claimed. Thanks to everyone in this forum. Congrats to all successful applica...
You have not mentioned for what purpose you want to show this account- earnings or maintenance fund. Most obvious question seems to be for earnings so let me try to answer. What is important is that for each of the month of earnings - your payslip value shd match with a value that was deposited in b...
Baji, I do not think any one can advise you correctly unless you write what was mentioned exactly in the refusal letter.I asked you but you have not done it. I am not sure if you can get the to the point advise unless the refusal is absolutely clear. At present it seems to be for multiple reason and...
Yes you can. What I would suggest is read the dependent guidelines your doubts will be absolutely clear and you will be at peace. Cheers, Jacob Please any senior members on this forum confirm,I am maintaining funds in my wife account in India for me as well and i am in uk. Is that OK maintaing fund ...
Hi,As I have mentioned from all the text mentioned in the UKBA website and the example quoted in the dependent guidelines you need to show only 800 for yourself and 1600 for every dependents. We have couple of members who have indicated that their visa was rejected and the reason quoted was that 280...
Can you post what exactly was written in the rejection letter so that we can help better. Based on what you have written you have to take action on point 1 and 3. Point 2 is not even needed for Tier 1 Dependent visa. Cheers, Jacob Hi, I recently applied for Tier 1 Dependent Visa for my wife and the ...
There is nothing like tier 2 to Tier 1 dependent or X to Tier 1 dependent. It is a simple case of applying for tier 1 General dependent and you have to follow the guidelines for Tier 1 general dependent. The only significance of your Tier 2 ICT was in deciding whether you can apply in country or go ...
It shd be in either your account or your spouse's account or joint account between the 2. This will work even if you are applying for your kids. Money can be shown in your/spouse accounts. There are few other combination also(you can read the guidelines they clearly specify it) but for most of us th...
The challenge you are going to face is to get the good points out of earnings. I remember reading that allowances can not be considered as earning. In addition as you are in UK, you will not be able to apply uplift multiplier to your India earnings. In that case unless you get paid toooooo much in i...
Ananth, From my opinion you shd never show it as it is resulting in overcrowding. I can confirm from experience of couple of my friends that tennacy proof is not required..............if you have then give as optional......but do not give something that can create problem as it looks in your case so...
Why is this dilemma, where did you read that you need to show tenency agreement for dependent visa. Read the dependent threads in this forum..........you will realise that Tenancy agreement is not required for dependent visa. Also look at the guidelines and you will be sure. So no need to worry abou...
As I mentioned the guidelines says 800 for main applicant/sponsor, the same was confirmed by the VFS guy. However we have couple of members who were denied visa and the reason given was that they needed to show 2800 for main applicant/sponsor. Renu is one of them who faced this. This might be becaus...
