Another point do we need 2800+1600+1600+1600 or 800+1600+1600+1600 in case the main applicant is in UK for less than 1 year. Man this is killing, we read so many different version of one definition? Please clarify.

If you read the Tier 1 General policy guidance and sporting documents list care fully than its very clearly mentioned there.

1: You only need to submit your bio data page(photo page) and your Visa pages photocopies and NOT all the passport copies.

Thanks AUHS. I read it and it is now very clear to me. In addition there is a sticky thread in this forum on Tier 1 dependents and all the mandatory and optional requirements are clearly mentioned. Hence I am informed now.

Cheers,
Jacob.

Hi,
Wish u good luck for you application.
Better you maintain 2800 for you to avoid any rejection - In chennai,Bombay they simply reject if we maintain 800 for main applicant.
Also pls add proof for your marriage sustainship - refer forum for proof list
Also pls check with ur house owner whether he is ready to give u a letter saying that he can allow one more room for you when ur family enters UK. So that UKBA will assume u can occupy 2 rooms in that house. I am sure seniors will agree for this...
Good luck.

Pages with Tier 1 visa and your particulars. As you are less than one year in UK, it is better to show 2800 GBP for your maintenance funds.

Mvent, you have stated in your above reply that only documents in blue are required. Your highlighted documents do not have proof of employment. My question from you is that 'Isnt it mandatory that main applicant should be working' Because there is a section in VAF form where employment details are asked of main applicant???

I will be thankful if someone could highlight the immigration rules explaining requirements for T1G PBS dependents to get dependent visas.

I wait for your response on this.

Hi Jacob,

I am here in Uk Last Aug'10. But I don’t want to take any risk for maintenance fund get short as per their expectation. They have mention in guidance in less than 12 month only 800 GBP for Main & 1600 GBP for dependent applicant. But I have seen on this form few Visas got rejected because of less than 2800 GBP for main applicant if he is less than 12 month.

Employer document is optional. I will take from my Indian company. First year doing the job in UK on Tier 1 NI Tax paid in UK not require as I know.

I am not giving rent agreement as it is shared. How can I take 2 BHK flat in advance 2-3 month before the family coming.

Thanks

Susheel

Susheel,

I am in the same shoe as you are. Just one suggestion to you, show something for subsisting marriage relationship:

In my (Sponsor) cover letter I will write the following and showcase as proof. I am sure you can also show something like this based on your personal circumstances:

1. Original Passport of Applicant(my wife) that has my name as spouse
2. Original Healthcare membership statement (membership number XXXX) from AXA PPP Healthcare Limited, showing that I joined membership in the United Kingdom on the 1st April 2011 along with membership for my wife XXXXXXh and my kids. This was done as they will shortly join me in the United Kingdom.
3. Copy of Emails that were exchange between myself and my wife in last couple of months
4. Original Life Insurance Policy drawn by me in the month of April 2011 from XXXXXXX where I have nominated my wife XXXXXX as a nominee to receive fund benefits upon my death
5. Letter from Bank showing that I and my wife continue to hold joint bank account

Good Luck,
Jacob

To Rizwan567

Again referred to the UKBA Tier 1 policy guidance.

Employment proof or Tenancy agreement are not required.only need to show proof of relationship,proof of leave to remain(main applicant visa and bio data pages copies and proof of maintenance.

There are many posts on this forum regarding this where applicant did not submit extra document like theses and got their visas accordingly.

Its is crystal clear in the guidance.Make your application simple and straight.

[Jacob123]

Hi,

-Santhoap

Santhoap, Thank you for the insights. I have read few posts where visa is refused hence will ensure 2800 for self maintenance. However tenancy is not required.UKBAS knows that the main applicant has tier 1 and for that the masin applicant has scored required points which includes points for previous earnings etc. That combined with the maintenance fund shd take care of all finance related issue like ability to rent etc.

Hence after going through the UKBA website in details for dependent requirements, I think tenancy proof is not required.

Cheers,
Jacob

[chosenaik]

TENANACY AGREEMENT IS NOT A MANDATORY DOCUMENT. If you want to sumbit it, it wont harm your application, but if you dont then also it is totally ok.

I think the senior members might consider setting up one of those permanenet posts to inform people of this. I think a lot of people are misguided about this and in unnecessary confusion.

[Bhaskarnu]

susheel,

Any update on your dependent visa, as u havent submitted the tenancy agreement. My situation now is the same as yours.

Please let us know ur feedback.
