Applying Dependent Visa for dependent outside UK

Post by susuntony » Mon Mar 22, 2021 8:24 am

Hi,

Whether i have to apply dependent visa along with my student visa application or I can be able to apply even after 3 months of my arrival in the UK. If so, what would be the minimum validity of my visa.

Please help on this.

A dependant can apply with the main applicant, or they can apply later.

It is not relevant, but there is a requirement about the length of the postgraduate course.

See https://www.ukcisa.org.uk/Information-- ... Dependants or check with the international student adviser at your university

See my previous answer. The length of time remaining on the visa is not relevant.
