Hello, Please help to clarify the following related issue (asking on behalf of a friend) There are two dependants of a Tier 1 General Migrant Visa holder who got their visas when they were less than 18 years. The main applicant is due for ILR now and the children are over 18 years of age as well ...

The purpose of the dependant visa application is either for your wife to join you in the UK or travel with you to the UK. What you mention now is contrary to this. I don't think it is possible. Most likely your wife will be asked for the reason for coming to the UK when she arrives.The response ...

Thank you mulderpf for your response. Although sushdmehta did not respond to my question on his comment.

The valid date was amended for me after I wrote back again. Of course it was all about God’s favour in form of the “ECO discretionâ€

I will advise that you should explore the option of getting your 12th month earning to be paid into your acount earlier than 17th day of the month, so that it will suit your purpose.It might be possible for you to get this done. do u think i can get a salary adv for the 12 th month in next month ...

Neverthless, I mentioned the details of my wife on the form and also sent the marriage certificate along. You mentioned your wife's name. Did you include the ...

so are you now saying that raisning the issue further is not an option????

Relevant portion of the reply is quoted as follows

“You landed in the UK on -------- and you are concerned that your visa will expire a little short of you being in the UK for full 3yearsâ€

Sorry if my comment sounds as if I said the father doubts his relationship with the child. The thought Process that I quoted as “extreme caseâ€
