They can apply anytime before their visas expire. It will be a 3 year extension.

You need 90 days maintenance funds of £630 for each dependent.

You put your last Tier 2 visa details correct.

Q2. Do you have one of these Home Office reference numbers for Mr xxxxx?

Do i need to give my current ILR BRP number? or I have to say as "No, I do not have a Home Office reference number for them" because, my current visa is ILR

ILR BRP number is fine.

Q3. What is the length of Mrxxxxxx Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS)?

I have my ILR now but what should i answer here? it has only the below 2 options

more than 3 years and less than 3 years

Depends what your last CoS was. Regardless of what you answer (although the fees will differ), the dependents will only get a 3 year extension. For IHS you need to put your ILR expiry date as Mondy/Day/2023 to get the 3 year IHS fee.

Note also, please do NOT post your full name on the forum. It is public for everyone to see and we have many scammers and spammers. Also please do not post Tier 2 dependent visa queries in the ILR sub forum. I merged your topics in the tier 2 sub forum.
