Skilled worker dependent visa - sticker visa or brp?

[t2skv]

Hi guys,

I have received my skilled worker visa today outside uk,
and was wondering if i can apply my wife's and daughter's visa with the sticker visa copy or do I have to visit UK first, collect BRP card and then apply for their visa?

Also, as my cos says maintenance will be taken care of by the employer, will it also cover my dependents?

Please let me know if you have any idea about this.

Thank you

Yes you can apply for them now. Your application reference number will be needed to link your cases.

The maintenance covers dependants.

Someone told me my wife won't get a "right to work" if i apply now? Is this the case?

Hi CR001

So my wife will be applying next week but i will be in the UK by then. I wanted to know regarding the maintenance funds for my wife and child.

Can she provide her bank statement with 28 days old funds? Or do i have to provide my UK bank statement since I will be in the UK? My uk bank statement won't be 28 days old by then. A bit confused about this..
