Which dependent visa?

Post by Vegeta » Mon Dec 05, 2016 4:21 pm

I'm currently waiting for my ILR decision(Tier-1 5 year route applied in June 2016). Meanwhile I thought I'd get some information regarding dependent visas once ILR is granted. Could someone kindly let me know what categories of visas should I apply for my dependents in India and how much maintenance funds should I have in bank

Wife - Entered UK in April 2014 as Tier-1 Dependent, Left UK in August 2015, Visa expired in June 2016, currently in India.
Child 1 - Born in UK, Applied Indian passport and Tier-1 Dependent, Left UK in August 2015, Visa expired in June 2016, currently in India.
Child 2 - Born in India, currently in India

What category Visa should I apply when I get my ILR and how much money should I show in bank.

Many thanks

After you are granted ILR, they may apply for settlement visas to join you. Extra financial burden expected for non-settled, non-British children. Immigration health surcharges applicable. TB certificates? UK born child entitled to register.

Although UK born child may be eligible for ILE under the rules, it's difficult to apply for it, if the ECO do not know the rules.

Isn't settlement visa only for people who are in UK?

The visa is called a 'spouse settlement visa'. Have you clicked on any of vinny's links he has provided (the blue underlined words) :?:

ILR (also known as settled status) is NOT a visa :idea:
