Dependent Visa for Newborn in the UK (Tier2)

[liewanne]

Dear Members,
I would like to find out the procedure to apply for dependent visa for newborn baby (born in the UK) as my baby is due on Feb 2010. I am currently on Tier 2 visa which will end on 2011.

I would like to find out what form to use and what supporting documents to submit, and the maintenance funds. Currently with my Tier 2visa, my husband is my dependent, so when the baby arrives, i will have two dependents on my visa.

Also, I would like to find out how soon do I need to apply for the dependent visa for my newborn, can I wait till the baby is two-months old?


Thank you.

Hi there,

As you hold a visa expiring on 2011, you may not need to apply for a dependant visa for your newborn and you may wait untill you come to the point of renewing your visa where you would include your newborn at that time as long as your baby will not leave the UK, but if the baby leaves UK and on the return back the baby would need to have an entery clearence visa from the local embassy, hope this would help you

Best wihses
