How much do my myself and my son need to show for 28 day to switch to Tier 4 dependent here in the UK. My wife is on a Tier 4 visa and her University is outside of London.
Do I need to show -
1. £12240 (9 x 680 x 2) or
2. 21375 = £12240 + £9135 (£9135 is the maintenance that my wife showed initially when she applied for Tier 4 back in our home country.) or
3. £21375 + any outstanding tuition fees my wife have not paid to her University.
From my initial understanding of Financial requirement guidance for dependant, I thought the correct option was 1. However, on filling the online application form, under "Proving you have enough money to be in the UK" section, it makes me want to think that option 2 is the right option. It says as follows;
"I am a dependant applying separately
Your living costs will depend on the number of dependants, the length of the student’s leave,
where they will be studying in the UK and whether they are applying for leave to remain on the
Doctorate Extension Scheme, as a Student Union Sabbatical Officer, or as a postgraduate
doctor or dentist on a Foundation Programme.
For example, an applicant who is applying for leave to study in London with their spouse and 2
children would need to show that they have £845 per month for their spouse and a further £845
per month for each of their children. This is in addition to £1265 per month required for their
own support.
In total the family would need to show that they have £3,800 per month [£1,265 + (3 x £845)]
in available funds for the length of the student’s leave, up to 9 months. If the student is on a
course lasting for 12 months, they would need to show £34,200 in available funds (£3,800 x 9)..."
