Indian citizen applying for Tier 2 dependent visa from USA?

Post by amy2387 » Fri May 29, 2015 11:33 am

Hi experts...
I'm in the UK on Tier 2 general visa which is valid till April 2017.
My husband is in the USA and he would like to come here as my dependent.
Can he apply for the visa to the UK from USA even though he's an Indian citizen or does he have to apply from India??
Looking forward to ur replies.
Thanks...

He can apply from the US itself, no need to travel all the way to India.

As long as he has a visa that gives him residency in the USA (not a visitor visa).

Ask your husband to contact VFS in US. see links below, if that helps.
