Doubt in Fund Maintenance for bringing my Wife to UK.

Post by sathish.kannan » Mon Aug 11, 2014 2:40 pm

Hi,

I am living in UK for 3 and half years. I am now having Tier-2 visa sponsored by A-rated sponsor. My company is ready to give Maintenance letter for me. Now how much fund I have to maintain in my account to apply dependency visa for my wife.

Thanks in advance,

Sathish

if she applies at the same time as you the sponsor certifying your maintenance will also cover her.

Thanks for the reply. I already have Tier 2 visa valid for 3 years. So only she is applying. does she still needs to maintain fund.

no, if you already have a T2 visa maintenance is only required for her
