Hi, I'm applying for my extension of stay as a Tier 1(general) dependant after my husband has got his visa granted.
He has been in the UK for 9 years, and I have been here for 5 years.
I just have a question about the maintenance's fund, as UKBA stated on their website:
'If the main Tier 1 (General) applicant or migrant has been in the UK for less than 12 months, you must show that you or they have at least £1,600 to support you, in addition to the funds needed to support them.
If the main applicant or migrant has been in the UK for 12 months or more, you or they must have at least £533 to support you'
Obviously my husband has been in the UK for more than 12 months however he has just been visiting our home country in December 2011 for 1 month and then come back to the UK. Will that trip make him 'presents in the UK for less than 12 months' ? I'm a little confused here.
Thanks in advance for your help !
