Wife as dependent with this income

Post by Leo A. » Sat Jan 12, 2008 11:56 am

First I want to give you my most sincere congratulations for the magnificent work and help that you have been doing with each of the people who like me need advice or legal advice in matters of immigration.

I am from Ecuador, married (28 yo), I am here in London with a student visa which started in March 13, 2007 and ends in March 2008.
Currently I am working 20 hours which are authorized with a monthly income of £ 600, oo, I live with my sister (married to a Swedish guy). Of course if she works here we could get over than £1000 monthly

I am going to apply for extension visa for at less three years more, but I would want to my wife who is currently in Ecuador could be here with me.
So I would be very grateful if you can answer me this question, :
Can my wife apply as a student too? or Have I include in my application form as dependent? or Should she does it from Ecuador before I get the visa?

-- We also have some small income from a house and a small shop that we have leased in Quito, Ecuador with a monthly income of $ 550 = £ 275 I hoping to get a very helpful answer .
Regards :D :(

If you get the extension, you can apply for her to join you as a dependent. Since you would be sponsoring her, you'd need to meet the requirements. As a dependent she can work full-time. As for studying F/T, I am not 100% certain.

If you don't want (or can't get) a dependent's visa, then she can apply for a student's visa, but she'd need to meet the requirements for that.
