Hi,
CW are expected to go by the rules and if possible check up on the guidance in case of any doubts/concerns. Unfortunately there can be discrepancy between the Immigration Rules & Guidance. So lets assume as per Rules the requirement is just £600. The following can happen:
1) The CW might use the guidance and then possibly reject the dependent Tier-1 Visa.
2) The CW knows the rules of book and will issue Dep T(1)G visa.
If option 1) happens then sure, you can either re-apply or put an appeal within 28 days. The point is the time consumed to get over the appeal and paper work etc., which in hind sight (actually fore-sight) might be better option to apply with £600 + £900 (i.e) as per guidance.
@ Akan: The beginning of Appendix E goes like this : (aa) Paragraphs 1A and 1B of Appendix C also apply to this Appendix.. This means when interpreting Appendix E one should also apply Paragraph 1A & 1B of Appendix C. The Paragraphs are given below:
1A. In all cases where an applicant is required to obtain points under Appendix C, the applicant must meet the requirements listed below:
(a) The applicant must have the funds specified in the relevant part of Appendix C at the date of the application;
(b) If the applicant is applying as a Tier 1 Migrant, a Tier 2 Migrant or a Tier 5 (Temporary Worker) Migrant, the applicant must have had the funds referred to in (a) above for a consecutive 90-day period of time, unless applying as a Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) Migrant or a Tier 1 (Investor) Migrant;
I think the answer should be clear now.
