Spouse Visa and Tax

Hello everyone

this is my first time using immigration boards,

My name is Javid, I want to bring my wife to UK, I am British Citizen

I have 4 kids, 3 have British passport except 1, as my other kid was born before my British citizenship

I have couple questions

1. How much tax do I have to show to government to bring my all kids?
2. What will happen to my 1 daughter who doesn't have passport? she is 13 years old, My case was rejected, when I apply for my daughter passport. I am confuse I don't know what to do, please help me. Thanks Javed

1. How much tax do I have to show to government to bring my all kids?

There is no 'tax' you have to show. You will have to prove you earn a minimum of £22,400 per annum to sponsor your spouse and 1 child.

2. What will happen to my 1 daughter who doesn't have passport? she is 13 years old, My case was rejected, when I apply for my daughter passport. I am confuse I don't know what to do, please help me.

She applies for the same visa as your wife and will need 5 years in the UK before she can apply for ILR with your wife and then British citizenship once she has ILR. She will need her home country passport to apply for a visa.

My case was rejected, when I apply for my daughter passport.

Why did you even apply for your daughter's (British) passport directly? Just because one parent (or even both parents) naturalises, it does not change the immigration status of the child.

Children born abroad before you became a British citizen will follow the same immigration pathway as the second parent and will need to apply with them for ILR.

In this case, as the child is already 13, she will likely be 18 by the time she gets ILR and therefore will have to naturalise as a British citizen in her own right, meeting all the requirements, such as absence, physical presence, English language, LITUK, etc.

Thank you guys for your answers.

To be clear, I will have to apply for my daughter visa same time when I am applying for my wife visa?

Ideally yes.
