Has no one applied for Tier 1 Dependent visa in the month of Sept 09??? I would request anyone and everyone to contribute the timelines (Applied in India) if they have applied for their dependents.

Its been 7 workings days now for me and the status is just the same...really frustrating wait time...my application is straight forward...at least thats what I think...

kinda bored now waiting for status of the visa to change on VFS website....

Is there a way I can request them to expedite the process?

Regards
Jedi001

Hi krssubbu,

1. do i need to take a house on my own (am living in shared accomodation - own room in a 4 bedroom house) - if so by when shoud i move - is it 3 months before marriage or it can be 1 month before marriage

- safe side take 3 months before and keep agrement and all utility bill on your name

2. how much shd be the bank balance?

- Â£ 800 + Â£1600 = Â£2400 for 3 months

3. what documents i need to show to embassy

- your pay slips
- employer letter
- bank statements
- wedding photos
- wedding card
- marriage certificate
- flat agrement and utility bills

If you have been in the UK for more than 12 months then you only need to show Â£533 instead of Â£1600 for each dependent. Also, it is not mandatory to show an extra Â£800 as maintenance funds for yourself but people, including myself, do it to be on the safe side.

krssubbu · Post by **krssubbu** » Thu Oct 01, 2009 2:38 pm

Thanks to jedi001 and crowbar6.
i have been in the uk more than 12 months and i have my visa until 2012. So i presume it would be enough if i show Â£533 or at the max Â£800 + Â£533 = Â£1333.

1. Does my fiance in the mean time need to show her bank balance or not ?

2. does she need any documents from her side ?

3. the marriage certificate will have a different surname (my name after marriage) than her passport - will that be aproblem ?

4. regarding the accomodation, it would very expensive if i move to a single bedroom house (nearly around Â£800 atleast) and i dont need it before marriage - i can save some money by living in a shared house. so will this really be a problem if i move to the new house a month before marriage or can i take a post dated agreement saying after marriage i can move to the new house?

please help? also let me know any other points if i have forgotton please?

Thanks

1. Does my fiance in the mean time need to show her bank balance or not ?

- No Need to show anything

2. does she need any documents from her side ?

- Only need her passport

3. the marriage certificate will have a different surname (my name after marriage) than her passport - will that be aproblem ?

- I think that is not a problem

4. regarding the accomodation, it would very expensive if i move to a single bedroom house (nearly around Â£800 atleast) and i dont need it before marriage - i can save some money by living in a shared house. so will this really be a problem if i move to the new house a month before marriage or can i take a post dated agreement saying after marriage i can move to the new house?

- you can take before one month also...
