Thanks CR001 for your response.

The only reason for not calling the dependents was that I was not sure if I would get ILR or not.

Giving ILR is at the sole discretion of the case worker and it seems like a lottery draw.

I meant to bring before as your PBS dependents.

Now you have waited till the absolute last minute for you almost 18 year old son and you risk breaking up your family.

You are absolutely right. I should have called them earlier.

In worst scenario, if my ILR gets delayed and my son completes 18 years, are there any grounds for argument that due to the fact that the ILR was delayed from HO side, my son should be granted a dependent visa.

Definitely not. Tier 4 child visa / Tier 4 visa / spouse visa (once he gets 18 years) if he marries with UK settled/national person maybe the only best available options.

How would it be HOs fault now when you have had years to bring your family and you chose not to bring them.

What I mean is that HO took 12 months to take a decision instead of the standard 6 months. As a result my son crossed the 18 year mark. Will that not be a constructive argument?

No it won't. Ho could well argue that you had so many years to bring them as PBS dependents but you chose not to, even though the route was blatantly obvious there to use.

You can't blame HO for you bad decisions.

Documents for calling dependents from non EU country

Post by Globe Trotter » Fri Nov 15, 2019 10:41 pm

I am arranging for the following documents to call my family of 3 (spouse + two under eighteen kids):

1- NARIC red route to get the statement of comparability and English proficiency for my spouse.
2- Income proof of 24800/- (Bank statements + payslips for the last 12 months of being Director of a Ltd company).
3- Tenancy Agreement for a three bedroom house.
4- Property inspection report of the above mentioned property.

Are the above mentioned documents sufficient or am I missing out on something?

2- Company's bank statements for last one year
3- CT-600
4- VAT Returns
5- Accountant's letter

An early response shall be highly appreciated.

This depends on whether it is a specified limited company as defined in the guidance.

The guidelines mention that the income threshold has to be met at the time of application.

Does it also mean that the income threshold has to be maintained till the outcome of the application?

Or can the income be lowered once the application has been submitted?

The application will be assessed based on the evidence submitted, which covers up to the date of submission. You will also have to show income above the threshold for any future visa extensions or in the case you had to submit a new application if the first were refused and all appeal options exhausted.
