Dependent Visa queries

[js03022006]

Hi,

My Tier1 visa valid from June 2009. I am planning to move to UK on June 2010 and planning to apply the dependent visa for my wife and son before my travel.

1. Will it be an issue in processing my wife & son dependent visa as I have processed last year but not travelled to UK?

2. I will be travelling on June and My wife and son will be joining later (sometime in September), so can i mention some date in september in 'On which date do you, wish to travel to the UK' field (VAF10 application form)

3. My son is 3 years old, I will sign in 'Parent/legal guardian’s signature' field. Do I need put my Son's thumb impression in 'Applicant’s signature' field or not required?

Thanx in advance

AS long as you can satisfy the criteria and follow the Tier1 general dependants' guidance, there will not be any issues!

2. I will be travelling on June and My wife and son will be joining later (sometime in September), so can i mention some date in september in 'On which date do you, wish to travel to the UK' field (VAF10 application form)

I don't think that A specific date is required. Month should be fine!

3. My son is 3 years old, I will sign in 'Parent/legal guardian’s signature' field. Do I need put my Son's thumb impression in 'Applicant’s signature' field or not required?

No. Sign it yourself and specify the relation and your name printed below

Thanx in advance

Thans vks.

--- The reason I asked this bcaz I am planning to process the dependent visa this month and if i mention september, will not be a problem? I remember someone mentioned in this forum that ''On which date do you, wish to travel to the UK' should not be more than 90 days from the processing date. I mean if i apply April 5th then the date should be mentioned before July 5th. Is it true? (Sorry for the big explanation)

3. My son is 3 years old, I will sign in 'Parent/legal guardian’s signature' field. Do I need put my Son's thumb impression in 'Applicant’s signature' field or not required?

No. Sign it yourself and specify the relation and your name printed below

--- Do you mean i need to sign in both the fields 'Applicant’s signature' and 'Parent/legal guardian’s signature' ?

I am not aware of such specifics, with respect to HO guidance

3. My son is 3 years old, I will sign in 'Parent/legal guardian’s signature' field. Do I need put my Son's thumb impression in 'Applicant’s signature' field or not required?

ECB9.5 What if applicant is not intending to travel straight away to the UK
The ECO should check the applicant's visa application form (VAF) for the proposed date of travel in order to prevent unnecessary applications for an extension of stay, and possible claims for a refund of the extension fee.
Where an applicant may not intend or be able to travel to the UK immediately following their application: the ECO has discretion to defer the 'effective' date for up to three months after entry clearance has been authorised.
