Thank you for your time in answering my question. Please can best direct us with the below scenario?.

Scenario: >> WIFE is in UK WORKING FOR A-RATED SPONSOR
>> HUSBAND(me) is DEPENDENT APPLYING FOR T2 General Dependent/ Partner from HOME COUNTRY.


Case: My Wife is in UK working for A-rated Sponsor. And I am applying for PBS TIER-2 General Dependent from my Home Country. While filling the online application form -two pages are slightly confusing. I need your help in understanding them.

Page 1: FAMILY DETAILS --> SPOUSE / PARTNER --> [Should it be my details(husband/dependent) or my Wife's details?] Your wife's details as your sponsor.
Page 2: MAIN APPLICANT -->ABOUT MAIN APPLICANT -->[Should it be my details(husband/dependent) or my Wife's details?] Your details as the applicant

Thanks for being patient with my simple questions.

So as per your advise:

Main Applicant details should be my wifes as she is the sponsor as is in UK working A-Rated Company.

Spouse /Partner details should be filled with MY- passport, parents -Mother,Father details etc.

However Casa said it in reverse, perhaps taken me as the Sponsor. But anyways thanks a lot.

I'll be back with few more questions - please bear with even if though seem simple but I'm being little cautious of not getting my application returned down for these matters.

Thank you once again.

Well, I'm sorry for the first post which is vague.
CR001, Yes . I am applying for dependent visa. My wife is Tier 2 General Visa holder. So my question now is

In the Main applicant section: ABOUT MAIN APPLICANT - we have the following fields
1. Family name /Surname
2. Given Name/Forenames
3. Date of Birth
4. Place of birth
5. Gender
6. Nationality
7. Current Passport or Travel Document Number
8. Place of Issue
9.Issuing Authority
10. Date of Issue
11. Date of Expiry
12. Are you accompanying the main applicant or joining them later?
13. How are you related to the main applicant?
14. Does the main applicant have a Certificate of Sponsorship or Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies number?
15. Please enter the CoS/CAS number
16. Is the main applicant living in the UK?
17. What permission do they have to stay in the UK?
18. What job/course of study is the main applicant doing in the UK?
19. What is the address where the main applicant works or studies?
20. What is the start date of the job or course
21. What is the end date of the job or course
----- End of list ---
According to your advise this list should be filled with main applicant details - but I'm a Dependent. How would I give my Cos and other work related details here, it doesn't make sense.

And you say in Spouse/Partner section they should be my WIFEs details as she is Tier 2 Visa holder. So you mean that I have to give her -marital status, her passport, address, Father, Mother etc.

I hope you can help now as I have given all my questions here.
Thank you.


If you are applying for the dependent visa then YOU are the main applicant.

Spouse/Partner details will be your WIFE is she is the main Tier 2 visa holder.

Had you stated in your first post that YOU are applying for the dependent visa, accurate advice would have been given
