I guess flygirl was right in one of her posts, where she wrote -

Awaiting further consideration - waiting for next lunar eclipse, waiting for pig to fly ??

Adding on to this - May be HO realised it aint gonna happen, so they put it back to UC. Wish it would have been lot simple -

UC - currently been worked on
AFC - Passport is being stamped - This would be well joyable, wudnt it ??

GOT THE VISA TODAY :

Application Type: WP To Tier 1 + 2 dependents
Date Applied/Docs sent: 04-Feb-2009
Application reached HO: 05-Feb-2009
20-Mar-2009: Awaiting for consideration
23-Mar-2009: Can't get on the queue at the call center
24-mar-2009 : under consideration (morning)
24-mar-2009:Documents dispatched(evening)
25-Mar-2009: Documents received. Tier 1 General approved, expiry: 23-Mar-2012

but my dependents didn't get the visa since I didn't send the separate dependent applications for them , which i was not aware.

I am having mixed feelings that I am happy that i got the approval and sad since my dependents didn't get the visa and i need to apply for them again by paying £400

Guys,Feb applications are started getting the results.best of luck for everyone.

Thanks for all members for your support.

Sashi.. i think you shd be very happy that you got VISA approved.. now it is not a big deal to get your dependents to get the approval.. just will cost extra money for the simple mistake..

I am very happy that you did finally hear good news after lots of tension..

DOnt delay apply ASAP, but this time check all the info with lots of patient members on tihs board..

I have called the home office and asked about it they said it would be OK if i apply for dependents with in 7 days and they told me not to delay much.

Some more information is one of my friend also didn't send a separate application for dependents along with his application on 4th march he called the home office and and explained and home office asked him to send the application to Shefeild address.I think home office would have considered my request also if it was not "under consideration" status.

Just sharing this information might be useful other like me.

Hello Sashi..

there are few IMPORTANT things that you need to REMEMBER and not to make a simple mistake again..

1. Maintenance Funds evidence - For this you need to get the recent Bank statements (as you mentioned above) and those statements shd be less than 1month old..

2. Please fill your Dependents applications again becos lots of answers may be different.. just forget what happened till now.. jst remember u got ur new VISA and fill ur dependents applications as per that..

3. I think there will be atleast 28days grace period before u can apply for ur depends - I am not sure on this exact days

4. do send all the dependents related Docs like
a. Marriage certificate
b. birth certificate of ur children
c. Applications separately
d. cover letters separately
n any other docs u sent earlier for dependents applications..

dont worry about 2-3days delay... if u have any question just fire them at this site and there alots of ppl ready to help..

goodluck mate
