PBS dependant applying same time as main applicant

[Rafik83]

Dear Moderators,

I am applying for ILR (inside UK) under Tier 1 General after completing the 5 years. My spouse's visa is a PBS dependant that will expire at the same time as mine (she's been in the UK for 1 year). As we are applying together through the postal route, I would be grateful if someone could confirm what I am doing is correct:

* I am submitting a PBS dependant form for my spouse because she did not complete the 2 years. if not the correct form, please advice
* If using PBS dependant, which fee is the correct one: £561 (applying separate) or £750 (applying together)?
* As a proof of cohabitation, I am submitting a NHS card and a GP letter with the address on. Are these enough (I don't have any other bills under my spouse's name)?
* I am using the same bank statements to prove maintenance for my spouse application and at the same time to prove my earnings in my ILR points. Can this be accepted or they are considered as duplicate proof?

Your advice is highly appreciated.

Thank you.

RIGHT

£561 (applying separate)

That's fine.
* I am using the same bank statements to prove maintenance for my spouse application and at the same time to prove my earnings in my ILR points. Can this be accepted or they are considered as duplicate proof?
Fine - make sure it has good enough funds to support both of you.

Your advice is highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Can you list down your PBS - Dependent visa documents ?

Hi rubina2010,

Thanks very much for your reply. much appreciated.
Because my dependant is applying at the same time as me, I tought the fee is £750! so what does the "applying at the same time" mean in the application form?
For the PBS dependant docs, I am supplying the following:
Passport, photos, police registration from, NHS card and GP letters (to prove cohabitation), bank statements and marriage certificate.
Hope these are enough!!

Thanks.

Police registration from, does this really required in your case ?

[Rafik83]

I don't think the police registration form/document is required, but as it's an official document it is a plus.
