Need information on dependent VISA

Post by thenoobgeek » Wed Dec 07, 2011 5:42 am

I may be travelling to UK on "Intra company transfer" work permit under tier-2 of point based system (PBT). My wife is currently working in India. As per my knowledge, spouse of a person with valid work permit is allowed to work in UK. My wife would want to like to continue working for the same employer, however I have a few questions in this regard -
  1. Does my wife need to resign from her company if she wants to travel with me under dependent VISA?
  2. In case my wife's employer decides to process her work permit independently (as main applicant) then will her dependent VISA get cancelled?
  3. After some time if my wife decides to get separated from her employer ( as main applicant) then can she stay with me under dependent VISA (if point 2 above is "no"). Or will she have to apply for a new dependent VISA (if point 2 above is "yes")
  4. Also, does she need to come back to India to apply for dependent VISA or can this be done while staying in UK?
