Applying Tier 1 - include Dependents?

Post by scuba68 » Fri Jul 31, 2009 10:04 pm

I am applying today for the Tier1 visa. I have 3 dependents and don't want to start the process on their visa until I have secured a job. How should I answer this question - Please indicate whether they are travelling with you I am not going to move to the UK until I get a job so I assume I say yes to this but just not do their paperwork now? If I say no will it look strange when I add them later?

I appreciate the help of anyone that knows this answer. THanks.

Say no, otherwise you will be expected to submit their documents as well + show maintenance funds for them.

Dont worry, it is very easy to prove why you need ur family to join u earlier than expected.. HO understands, so better say NO now and once u get a job u can apply for ur dependents with proper reasoning..
