IHS surcharge for Dependent visa - Urgent help required

Post by sujeetbehera » Tue Mar 29, 2016 11:53 pm

Hi,
I need urgent help on filling in the IHS form towards a dependent visa.

I am presently on an ILR and trying to bring my wife on a dependent visa. After i complete her application form on the site https://www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/ , i am being directed to the IHS site and thats where i am starting to have problems.

I fill in my wife's details and then it asks me to fill in the details of the person she would be joining in the UK (which is me). It asks for my visa route, visa sub type, visa expiry date along with other details and after i have filled in the details it gives IHS amount as Rs 1,60,000. I understand it should be 200 pounds for every year and since dependent visa is for 2.5 years, the payable amount should'nt be more than 500 pounds.

Can someone please guide me as to whats the correct way to fill in the IHS form so that i get the right amount?

Thanks
Sujeet

I think it's £600 for the first visa since it's 33 months, not 30, due to the 3 months extra built-in grace period.

Thanks Wanderer.

Even 600 pounds is okay with me. Any suggestion as to how do i get a quote of 600 instead of the present 1700 pounds?

Should be so much, have you accidentally included yourself on the application? Seems a common error, you should just apply for one person, your spouse.

Hmm...it does say that the if the person she is joining in UK a UK citizen then she need not fill in their details. But i am not UK citizen yet as i am still on ILR so i m filling in my details there as well.. Is this where i am going wrong?

She must apply alone. DO NOT enter your details in the form.
