PBS Dependant maintenance requirements

Post by yavooz » Mon Apr 20, 2015 10:02 am

Hi,

In the PBS dependant form (https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... _04-15.pdf) section M10, you're supposed to show evidence of having £630 in available funds.

1. Should this money be in the dependant's account? Or the PBS visa holder's account?
2. Should this money be constantly available for 90 days? or should we just have the balance in the account on the day of application?

thanks

57. You must have £630 to support yourself. 58. This requirement can be met by:
having savings of £630 which must have been held for at least three months prior to the date of application; or
• the Tier 2 A-rated sponsor providing a written undertaking that, should it become necessary, it will maintain and accommodate the family member for a month. The undertaking may be limited provided the limit is at least £630 per family member.
59. For example, the Tier 2 Migrant is making an application at the same time as their spouse and two children. They must show that they have £630 for their spouse and a further £630 for each child, in addition to £945 required for their own support. In total the family will require evidence that they hold £2835 in available funds (£630 x 3 = £1890 + £945).
60. If you apply at the same time as the main applicant, you are only required to provide evidence that you meet the maintenance requirement when the Tier 2 Migrant is also required to meet the maintenance requirement. If you apply separately from the main applicant you will always need to have the necessary funds to meet the maintenance requirement or have a written undertaking from an A-rated Sponsor.
61. For example, where the Tier 2 Migrant is submitting an application because they are changing employment within Tier 2, neither the Tier 2 Migrant nor any family member is required to submit evidence that they meet the maintenance requirement.

. If the Tier 1 Migrant is outside the United Kingdom or has been present in the United Kingdom
for less than 12 months, you must show that you, the Tier 1 Migrant, or (for children) your other
parent who is also legally present in the United Kingdom have at least £1890 to support you; this
is in addition to any funds the Tier 1 Migrant needs to prove they have enough money to support
themselves.
. If the Tier 1 Migrant has been in the United Kingdom for 12 months or more, you must have
£630 to support yourself.
. For example, the Tier 1 Migrant has been in the UK for 6 months and is making an application
at the same time as their spouse and two children. They must show that they have £1890 for
their spouse and a further £1890 for each child, in addition to £945 required for their own support.
In total the family will require evidence that they hold £6615 in available funds (£1890 x 3 =
£5670+£945).
. If the same Tier 1 Migrant and their family had been present in the UK for two years, they
would require evidence that they held £2835 (£630 x 3 = £1890 + £945) in available funds.
. If you are applying as the family member of a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant you cannot use the
same funds to meet the maintenance requirement that the Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) used to meet the
attributes requirement (appendix A of the Immigration Rules).

1. Any account, Yours or the dependants
2. Although it is mentioned on the Guidance explicitly like in the Tier 2 Dependant, I think it should still be for 90 days continuously. Not just the closing balance.
