Dependants in UK Spouse Visa Application

[Deefav]

Dear all,

Please i need your help in completing online UK spouse visa application (Appendix FM Partner). I am currently applying for spouse visa for my wife and one-year-old daughter who are outside the UK. My question is that do i need to apply separately for my daughter who is the dependant in this application?

The reason for asking is due to the information i found in the application which reads as follows: "Will these dependants be included in my application?" and the answer states "Information about these dependants will help us with your application but they will not be included in this visa application. They will need to apply separately if they want to be with you in the UK".

I have initially thought that dependants can be included as part of the spouse visa application but it seems that's not the case. Please any help in clarifying this will be appreciated.

Thank you.

2 X applicants = 2 X separate application forms, both under Appendix FM.

Am I completing the right application for our daughter? I have applied separately for my wife under Appendix FM Partner and have started FM Child application for my daughter. However, the questions sound as if it is for an adult applicant. For instance, it's asking for 2 years address history and also preferred language. Bearing in mind that my daughter is only one year old and still learning to talk, i'm wondering whether i'm completing the right application.

Hi All,

Just to inform you that my wife's and daughter's applications have been granted. I would like to thank CR001, AmazonianX and members of this forum for help and guidance. It's greatly appreciated.

Although my wife and daughter have been granted their entry clearance, there was no attached letter which should advise how and when to collect biometric card. Currently, I'm not sure whether to visit the post office for collection or not. Any ideas?

The brp needs to be collected within 10 days of them arriving. They need to attend the post office with the stamped passports.

Thank you very much.

Let them get to post office as soon as possible after arrival in UK. Though there could be delays it gives you idea of positions of things.
