if you did take any salary from your business than you can give a letter from your account which conform that you are the director of the business and your business is actively running. But don't worry if you can't manage it as it is only a supporting document, not must!!!

Hello friend,

Thanks for mentioning this list, but if the the applicant is only talking over skype/viber or whatsapp. How you will show the international calling history.
Secondly, if you are not sending any remittances to your spouse as she is living in joint family and parents looking after her.

Thanks

Thanks for your kind reply regarding the calling history.

Can anybody please let me know that, is there any minimum requiremnt of per month income of the director and what if we only supply 2 months pay slips and devident vouchers as this financial year just started in April.

Will it all right?? Please update

Hello everyone,

I was going through threads but couldn't understand that there is no requirement of salary slips or dividend vouchers and anything else such as rent agreement etc. They just need the maintenance fund and proof of existing relationship.

They must know we are the entrepreneurs and have got bloody good amount to invest in our businesses and we don't have any resource to public funds as well. So I think we must stay with the guideline provided by HO and do not give them any separate/extra documents. Please correct me if I wrong some where.

Regards

Hi priyapiya,

thanks for sharing this sample letter.

Question for everybody???? How much it is important to attach the rent agreement or the salary slips, if we have got enough maintenance funds available to support our dependent. As there is no requirement available in case worker guideline for all this other then the maintenance funds.

Comment please.

Regards

I agree. I just got the visa yesterday and now preparing to apply directly for dependents applications in a week time. I think a copy of the main applicant visa & passport along with the standard published requirements is enough. Of course certified/stamped marriage certificate & birth Certificates as well.

I mean they are not going to refuse dependent application unless they can prove that she is not your wife which they can't. So send original attested/witnessed marriage certificate and thats it.

Having said that, i am also not in the UK and applying from overseas, if i was inside the UK already, i may just double check if they need proof of address, but i think wedding photos and Skype chat is an overkill. Just stick to what the dependent guideline states.

Hi faisal
I am not an expert. ...but I think for a dependent visa you need to show your personal bank statement that you have enough money to support your dependents. Your source of income and business activity or letter from accountant. A house rental agreement to show you have accommodation available And verified by a solicitor.
Proofs of your relationship like Nikah nama etc
Consult with a solicitor if possible.
Thanks
