sorry friend i am not an expert, just remember UK policy is more strict for child care and they want to implement it on their best.

did you provide accommodation arrangement evidences ? like tenancy agreement etc

Here is latest guidenace for PBS dependants effetive from April 2012. it does not tell anything about new requirement of funds £1600 when main applicant is lesser than 12 months.

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... licy11.pdf

Is this not funny that main applicant required £900 and dependant required £1800
Again it seems they have copied it from T1

UKBA Confuses all the time... either it is typo, requirement of £1600 for dependants before 14 Jun 2012 in all category from T1 to T5 (they just copied and paste?). or that is for applicants who will apply between 6 April 2012 to 14 Jun 2012. if 2nd case is correct , then what about those who will a...

can I mark both on the application form?

I want my family to apply for tier 2 general dependants I have both options , got letter from employer and bank statement (which has just few hundred more than required balance) as well. what you think guys , which one is best option to mark as maintenance ? 1 - Maintenance Letter OR 2 - Own Funds

You need to choose one option , either funds / letter as core option. But it would support and make your case stronger if you attach as supporting document (either letter or statement)

If your A rated employer gives you maintenance certificate (undertaking on their letterhead) than funds are not required , but to make your application strong it will be good to provide funds regardless 90 days limit.. this is what I did from Pakistan

Hi , is any change going to implement for visa rule of tier 2 dependant from April 2012?

Problem is with Gerrys , they say affidavit must have a legal value.

have you arranged suitable Accommodation for your partner? Such a things not mentioned anywhere over UKBA website but Gerry asks to provide so

Not sure about the Nadra , Gerrys tell me that it is required to endorsed from UC but for safe side I attested my nikkah nama's English translation from Foreign office. Gerrys is most confusing help line in my life.. each time they tell new story to me. I got maintenance letter from my sponsor for m...

If nikkah performed in Pakistan, than that must be endorsed/attested by respective union council

Hi,

Hi All, My family is going to apply for dependent visa, as I am here as TIER 2 Gen immigrant in UK. Gerry call centre in Pakistan asked to have an affidavit from me, please guide me is it must to have and do I need to present it on plain paper or it must be signed by notary public in UK (Note , I fo...

Hi Friends , I am applying for Tier 2 General visa . Can you guys help me what type of documents required me from my employer to attach with visa application ? Please note: I have been working for same employer since 2005 as direct worker from home office. Do I need experience certificate ? and do I...

Going mad.... sharing with you friends.. sometime I think should withdraw from proposal and keep working in home land , please advice!!! Life here is very tough and for immigrants its getting worst. I am in this country for past 7 years and there are constant rule changes. Expenses are big if you a...

Partially, its your fault of not planning ahead and maintaining your bank balance if you were expecting to make an application for Tier 2 visa. Why has your employer been so careless as not not making you aware of all these things? Just out of interest, what sort of time line are you looking at? Wh...

Sorry I just realized its a "Restricted COS" and out of country application. Do not withdraw the COS at all.. It's difficult to get a restricted COS. Please speak to UKBA before making any decision. :) Going mad.... sharing with you friends.. sometime I think should withdraw from proposal...

You could put a sponsor note in the COS, But they say its only to be used when making small corrections. e.g: Spelling errors etc, If you call the home office they will guide you. My company put the wrong SOC code. We had to withdraw, Apply for a increase in COS, They granted it the next morning. R...

Depends on what your company is like. Usually the 'unrestricted' CoS can be issued instantly if the firm has quota. But in your case, they'd have to request for a 'restricted' CoS which is decided by the UKBA on a monthly basis. I think the meeting takes place at 11th of each month. Since the numbe...

Hi Friends, When applying for sponsorship , my employer by mistake ticked that they will not support for Maintenance on form. Now CoS has been issue. Is it possible to modify the certificate for funds through SMS? Will they need to re-generate CoS and will have to pay for it ? if the re-generate CoS...
