Dependants applying from outside the UK If the
dependants meet all the relevant requirement of
the dependant visa, then they would be required
to apply online. After the online application
form is submitted, the applicant seeking entry
clearance as a dependant would go to the Visa
Facilitation Service Center to submit all the
supporting documents. At the VFS Center, the
applicant would be asked to provide his biometric
information (i.e. fingerprint and digital
photograph).

Dependants applying in the UK In certain cases,
the dependants can apply to extend or switch
their visas to stay with the migrant if theyre
already in the UK. They should apply using the
dependant application form. They can apply at the
same time as the primary applicant or at a later
date by post, or in person at a premium service
centre in the UK. While applying for a dependent
visa it is not possible for the applicant to
switch the visa from within the UK, this means
that Family members cant apply in the UK as a
dependant if they hold a visitor visa and have
entered the country on a visitor visa. The
applicants will be required to return to their
home country to make a fresh application for
seeking entry as a dependent. The visa is granted
for the same duration as the visa of the main
applicant. For dependent children, all
arrangements for childrens care and
accommodation in the United Kingdom must comply
with relevant United Kingdom legislation and
regulations.

For all dependent visa applications, it is
necessary to show that the applicant and the
sponsor will be able to support themselves
without any recourse to public funds. This is
also called as the maintenance funds
requirement. We have helped hundreds of clients
get their dependent visa for their wife or
dependent children to join them in the UK. These
applications can appear to be complicated due to
the recent updates where the UK sponsor must meet
requirements of maintenance funds.
