Hi sushdmehta,

thanks for your valuable inputs.

Guidelines says that - person needs to earn atleast 27000 pounds for last consecutive year.

However, I am currently jobless and searching. I will not be able to submit 1 year payslips.

Is it possible to show last 6 months remunerations which covers 27000 pounds ?

Kindly revert back with your valuable inputs.

Awaiting for your responses.

if you can earn 27K in one month in the last 15 months, you can just use the payslip of that month to prove you salary.

Hi martincyy,

thanks for your reply.

Just one more query...

My dependents (wife & child) still in Indian since I have not applied initial visa for them.

However, I am planning to bring them after my T 1 (General) extension approval. Once my application is approved, I will file the dependent visa for them.

But, my concern is - recently home office has announced a statement that no longer Tier 1 visa will be applied from overseas.

For my case, is it possible to apply Tier 1 dependents from India ??.

Your kind responses will be highly appreciated.

Dependants can still apply to join applicants who have obtained prior entry clearance for Tier 1 General.

hi sushdmehta,

Many thanks for your reply.

For maintainance of funds - is it okay if I maintain 800 pounds + 800 pounds (wife & child) in my Indian bank account for consecutive 3 months ??

Maintainance of funds are in my bank account for showing the proof or my will it needs to be with my wife's account ??

Will there be any complications for approval of dependent child visa (since my baby boy is just 10 months old) and somewhere in the policy documents it says

All arrangements for children’s care and accommodation in the United Kingdom must comply 36. with relevant United Kingdom legislation and regulations.

Kindly share your valuable experiences.

Hi forum members,

I have just look into policy guidelines latest - it says pound 533 for each dependent.

I guess for my case - it should be 533 + 533 + 800 (my self).
Correct me if I am wrong else where.

Further more, I have one doubt regarding the approval of dependent visas

Since I have entered UK very lately i.e.
My visa approved date : 28-12-2008
Entered in UK - 08-12-2010

Will it impact for my dependent visa approval - since main applicant entered into UK after a long gap. I know it will impact for my PR and I am not worried about that since it is too earlier to think about that.

Also, regarding my Tier 1 (first extn) - is there any rule that I shouldn't go outside the country during last six months at the time of applying visa extn ?

Once again, thanks for your time and valuable inputs.

That applies when you have been in UK for more than a year.
