Query regarding Tier 2 general PBS dependent visa

Post by hinakamal93 » Sun Feb 03, 2019 6:52 pm

Hi,

My husband has just moved to UK with a TIER 2 General visa and his COS is valid till December 2023.

Now he is applying my visa, but when I enter his COS details in the form, the visa fees goes to 1220 Pounds. We were actually planning to apply for my 3 years visa (which has fee 610 pounds). What should I do? Should I change his COS details to less than 3 years?

Help required.

You will get a visa for the same duration as your spouse.

Hi,

Sorry I didnt understand. Does this means I also have to apply for more than 3 years? (Also pay IHS fee for 5 years)

What should I do in this case?

One more question,

On which website should I apply?

https://visas-immigration.service.gov.u ... /dependant

or

https://www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/home/welcome

The second link doesn't show any option of Tier 2 PBS dependent visa option.

We are planning to show Finland's account bank statements for maintenance but Finnish banks don't put stamps on the bank statements. Will this be a problem?

Any idea who can we get them certified from? What if the bank gives us a investment letter stating that 630 pounds have been maintained in the bank for past 6 months?

Hi,
I have used the letter from Bank for my wife's tier 2 general visa, it worked for us although she had maintenance certified by employer also.
Re Bank statement or letter both are accepted.

You can refer guidelines for the details and fund need to be present in letter.

We have requested for a/c name, number, date of opening, current balance on letter issued date,
Balance amount (eg £ 945) maintained for last 4 months (calculate from the date of application)and contact person of bank official and there letter headed paper.
