Tier 1 (general) is going to move as Tier 1 Dependent

[jain.abhi]

Hi Everyone,

I am planning to move from Tier 1 general to Tier 1 Dependent. I have following questions -

1. I am right now working on assignment in UK on Tier 1 G. Will I be able to work when I will be on Tier 1 Dependent? Do I need to show/grant permission from my employer which is actually an india based company and I am also an india based employee of that company?

2. While making the application shall i show my employment?

3. I am living in UK since past 3 years. My address and back statement will be from UK, will it be any issue while getting this dependent visa from my country?

Please let me know if anyone has faced any issue in getting the dependent visa while he/she is working in UK.

Many thanks,
Abhilasha

I guess you don't have an intention to get an ILR on your own visa as that would be difficult once you change from Tier 1 to Tier 1 dependant but the main applicant (your partner) in that case has to meet the ILR criteria.
