If the main applicant under the highly skilled worker category is outside the United Kingdom or has been in the United Kingdom for less than 12 months, the family member must show that the main applicant or the dependant has at least £1,600 to support the dependant as well as the funds needed to support the main applicant.
If the main applicant has been present in the United Kingdom for 12 months or more, the main applicant or the family member of the highly skilled worker must have £533 to support himself/herself.
Indeed is contradicting. But, if it was me I would go along with the policy guidance and maintain 800 + 533 +533.destiniation_london wrote:I totally agree with what you say, but there is some contradicting information present at official site-

It specifically says maintenance for main applicant if he's been in UK for less than 12 months...but it just says main applicant should have 533£ for each dependant...please read it carefully and you will know what i mean..
am just copying the section from above link -

Can anyone pls tell me which form do I need to fill in for dependent visa?
I have read some posts on this forum which suggests that for dependent visa you need to complete VAF 10 form. But on the VAF 10 form it says that it is used for the applicants outside UK only.
No, Don't fill this
My son was born in UK.
On the HO website I have found a link for the application form.
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/worki ... ependants/
Fill this one
Not sure if it this is right form. Also, if it is the correct form what do I need to select from these options:
D1. Did the dependant obtain entry clearance or a visa before entering the United Kingdom?
Yes - go to question D2
No - go to question D5
No
D5. Please enter the reference number on the entry clearance or visa which can be found in the dependant’s passport or travel document.
Leave it blank and explain in covering letter
D6. Are either the dependant’s current and/or any one of his/her previous passport(s) or travel document(s) that he/she has used to travel to, and remain in, the United Kingdom which shows his/her current leave unavailable?
Yes - go to question D7
No - go to question D12
No
D12. What is the dependant’s current immigration status in the United Kingdom?
Leave it blank and explain in covering letter
_
K4. Tick to confirm that:|_|
The A-rated sponsor has confirmed on the certificate of sponsorship that where necessary they will accommodate the dependant during his/her first month in the United Kingdom
Also, I have a joint savings account with my wife and I am showing bank statements of that account. Do I need to show the marriage certificate to show that we are legally married?
Joint account is ok. Also send marriage certificate to be on the safer side
Also, do i need to send my photographs as well along with my son's photographs?
Don't think you need to send, attach birth certificate
Many Thanks
Kind Regards
