Dependent Visa - Maintenance Funds:

[whereami]

Hi Everyone
Previously had HSMP visa for two years and now have been extended under Tier1 for further 3 years. My spouse is in Pakistan and about to apply for dependent visa. Just found out that she needs to show maintenance funds of £533 for last 3 consecutive months either in her name or in the name of main applicant (in this case, I).
Unfortunately, she has never run her bank account back in Pak and I had the balance reduced to £10 for one day back in December. This means, we'll have to wait another 2 months before she could apply her visa.
Can anyone please suggest if there is a way round this? I shall be grateful for your comments, anyway.
Thanks.

There is no work-around for this! You should also mind that you need to maintain £533+ £800, when you apply for your dependant.
