Hi Gurus,

Question from the dependent application form:

K10: How did you enter the UK? - Simple to answer

K11: At what port did you enter the UK? - Simple to answer

K12: What was your ticket booking or reference number ? - Do you usually provide answer to this question or just skip?

K13: What was the name of your transport operator? - Do you usually provide answer to this question or just skip?

Reason for asking is: I am not sure if these questions (K12 and K13) are mandatory.
Help text says the following only regarding question K12 - "If you have info provide it, if you don't have it do not answer this question". Helptext doesn't say the same for K13.

What you guys usually do or have done ? skip it or answer it? Does providing this info, result into delayed application result due to verification process?

Also, What ticket number should I provide? - the most recent one (as helptext for K12 says "If you have it you should provide the ticket booking or reference number for the ticket you used when you last entered the UK. If you do not have it do not answer this question"
or, the ticket number when they first entered UK on Tier 1 dependent visa? (which sounds logical as per the flow of the questions)

As usual you are overthinking. It is an optional field

Just give the answers if you have them, if not tell them in your covering letter

Did not wanted to highjack someone else's thread hence copied the below to my thread:

Below are my salary slip formats:

Salary Slip format 1: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7pdzk0db7wxwb ... 1.JPG?dl=0
Salary Slip format 2: https://www.dropbox.com/s/aio4ig4b3g1qr ... 2.JPG?dl=0

Do you think it's a problem? specially format 2 (section NI Table)
and format 1 doesn't have address section.

Documents for dependants

Post by kaps84 » Tue Feb 13, 2018 10:51 am

Hi Gurus,

I am wondering if my understanding is correct with respect to the documents needed for depandents:

- My dependents (wife and child[~3 years]) are in UK with me and both were granted permission as my dependents (a few months after my visa grant, due to their late application) as my dependents.

I believe, I only need to send their:
- passports
- photographs
- maintenance funds proof
(I plan to send 3 months joint bank account(myself + wife) statement for myself and my dependents with sufficient funds (min balance > £4k)

- Marriage certificate and Child birth certificate was provided during their initial grants. (hence not including)

I was reading through the dependent guidance and came across 'criminal record certificate'. where guidance says :

Point 15: From 6 April 2017, there has been a requirement to provide a criminal record certificate from the following applicants:
- Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) Migrant
- <other categories>

I believe since this is applicable from 6th April 2017 and my dependents were granted visa in 2015, hence should not be applicable to them now during extension. Please let me know if otherwise.

Please let me know if my understanding regarding the documents required and regarding 'Criminal Record Certificate' is correct.

I did not reply as it again seems to be overthinking.

The full point 15 includes:

the adult partner (spouse, civil partner, unmarried or same-sex partner) of a PBS migrant in the categories above, where that partner is applying for entry clearance as a PBS dependant either with the main application or to join them subsequently.

It is clear the requirement is for Entry Clearance, not for Leave to Remain

Hi @marcnath,

I completely missed that point. Thanks for highlighting.
It was not really overthinking this time. It was not reading completely and assuming that next given points are just other categories.

:) :) Well, that was the only point applicable to the dependants. The others are for main applicants.

@marcnath, you are actually right ! :)

And I find it really interesting to note that 'in the dependent's guidance' they have quoted something, which is actually relevant to the dependents, as the last sub-point. At-least, in the point 15 that we are discussing.

Hi @marcnath,

Since, I plan to send company insurance documents with my extension application. I have questions here.

Does it matter if the insurance policy started much after the employees actually started working?

1) The overall policy document says:

Period of insurance: Continous cover from <DATE 1> until the policy is cancelled.
Retroactive Date: <DATE 2>

<DATE 1> is actually approx 6-7 months after my employees started.
<DATE 2> is a year before my policy started.

2) when I look at the 'Employer liability insurance certificate' it states the start date as <DATE 3> (which is actually the renewal date, exactly 1 year after <DATE 1>).

3) same on 'Public and products liability insurance certificate' as point number 2.

4) But, on 'Professional Indemnity insurance certificate' it says:
Date of commencement of insurance policy: <DATE 3> (renewal date, same as explained in point 2 above)
and also says, Retroactive Date: <DATE 2> (save as explained in point 1 above)

Questions:

1) Do you think it is not good to send a policy document which actually started much later?
2) Since it is confusing so I should not send (this un-necessary document?) or just send the policy document omitting the certificates.

Again, it is not a required document, so it is unlikely to matter.

@marcnath @zimba88 @bizman

I have received the draft copy of my final accounts (the only one I am planning to send to HO).
I would like you to take a look and let me know if it looks OK and to know your observations before I finalize and submit it. Investment via share capital (No - register of members found, so can't submit. Relying on these accounts)

Also, I would like to know is there any guidelines when to pay IHS? I am now due to apply shortly in a few weeks time.

Looks good.
Somewhere it does need to state that you are a 100% shareholder. Currently the notes only show your name against 200k and the ownership of the remaining 1002 shares needs to be provided to meet the requirement to list alll shareholders

@marcnath, isn't it sufficient to say in the notes, under the "Called up Share Capital" sub-section "list of shareholders" that I am the 100% shareholder. And also the para below it also explains that 100% shares in the company are issued to its director Mr. XXXXXXXX.

Moreover, in the notes point 7 "Controlling party" also states that Mr. XXXXXX owns 100% share in the company.

Yes that’s good enough. I just saw the first page on my mobile

Nothing on that. I don’t see any issue in paying now. If it is too early and you have to pay again they will refund it anyway

All in order mate. You can definitely pay IHS to ensure everything is in order. Also try and include business statement for about three months. All the best mate.

@bizman, I plan not to send any business bank statements. Any specific reason (or intent) that you are suggesting this?

It is now almost time to send the application anytime. Putting all the documents in Order (most of them are now available), just waiting for a couple of more documents (that are time bound).
