Tier 1 Dependent Visa

[rajdelhi1979]

Hi,

I got my Tier 1 Visa stamped on 19th August and I flying to UK on 3rd December. Before I go to UK I would like get VISA for my spouse and kid as they might travel a week after I do. I have few queries :-

1. First Question is can I apply visa for my dependents before I travel to UK ?

2. I have maintained 2800+ 1600+ 1600= 6000 GBP for last three months . Is that ok ?

3. What all other documents do I have to show ? I will be showing Marriage ceritificate, birth certificate for my kid, photocopy of my passport and bank statement signed and stamp and a cover letter. Is that sufficient ?

Regards,

Vineet

1. First Question is can I apply visa for my dependents before I travel to UK ? Yes, but you will not apply for wife. She will apply by herself. Only for kid you can sign his application forms.

2. I have maintained 2800+ 1600+ 1600= 6000 GBP for last three months . Is that ok ? Yes, it is fine.

3. What all other documents do I have to show ? I will be showing Marriage ceritificate, birth certificate for my kid, photocopy of my passport and bank statement signed and stamp and a cover letter. Is that sufficient ? Yes, these are okay.

No, that is no problem. In your passport your dependent will always be written as "0", even if they apply at the same time with you (unless your dependent is endrossed and do travelling on your passport).

Thanx . Some more queries :-

1. Do I need to give 12 month bank statement covering three month claim period or just the three month bank statement ?

No 3months is enough if you are asking for Maintenance funds..

2. Is there any sponser letter known format from main applicant ?

3. Should I submit two sets of bank statement one for my wife and one for my son ?

NO, 1set is enough.. just mention that in the cover letter

4. Also my wife will give below cover letter for herself and my son. Is this ok ?

Please add ur respective passport no's and DOB along with the names.. and it would be much better to have seperate cover letters with respective list of documents to make it look simple (though this shd also be fine as long as you present it properly..)
