PBS Dependent Extension for GTV holder after ILR

I obtained my ILR in November 2024 on the three-year GTV route. I am applying for an extension to my dependent wife and two children under PBS GTV route for three years through this link:

https://apply-to-visit-or-stay-in-the-u ... anner=true

I went through the application until before the payment step. I have three questions:
1- Is this the correct link I should apply through?

2- I reached the end of the application but there are no options to choose the number of years for the extension (I know it must be at least 3 or 5 years, but I couldn't find the option to select from). Is this ok or am I doing something wrong?

3- The three dependents are currently in the UK with me. Should they all be in the application with my wife as the main applicant, or should each one have his own application?

Thank you!

1. The link is the start and doesnt say the route, one step back.What does the previous page of the link say?

2. It is automatically a 3 year extension as stated in the immigration rules. UKVI know the rules. You don't have to state it.

3. Children can be added to your spouses application.

Thank you for the swift response!

The first page is this one:
https://www.gov.uk/global-talent/your-p ... d-children

Which has two options towards the end of the page: "extend or switch as a partner" and "extend or switch as a child". I select "extend or switch as a partner" and then add my two children to the same application.

Correct form yes.

Yes to if you get the option to add children under 18.
