Dependent Visa - Join Family in UK

Post by rocky123 » Thu Apr 30, 2015 1:55 pm

Hi,
I have some queries regarding applying dependent visa for my wife.

My background:
I came to UK on 4th April 2010 on ICT Tier 2 visa, stayed here for 5 years and got ILR last week. I am getting married in month of may and then I need to apply for a dependent visa for my wife

Queries:
1. Which visa type i need to apply as she will be travelling from India? "Apply to join family living permanently in the UK"

2. I have gone through UKBA site and found the below link where i can apply PBS dependent as well.

can you pelase let me know which is the correct option to apply dependent visa for my wife?

Regards

PBS dependent would only be relevant if you were still a PBS migrant or if your dependent was in the UK as your PBS dependent before you obtained ILR.

As you now are considered settled, it is the 'join family in the UK', spouse visa that needs to be applied for.
