ILR and tier 2 dependent

[drbalony]

Lastly, do we (myself and my wife) need to show maintenance fund.
This is our 5 year in UK.
Thanks

Thanks so much.
How early before the expiry of visa can we apply for extension of tier 2 dependent visa?
3 months or 1 month?

At any time.

In addition, can my wife (applying by premium first) and my kids apply separately (applying by post later). all of them applying before expiry of their visas.

They should ideally apply together. HO is likely to ask about why the children are not applying if they currently hold dependent visas.

Yes you need to show maintenance for Tier 2 dependent extension - £630 for each applicant held for 90 days minimum.

Thanks so much for all your help.
The visa centre customer care keep telling me and my wife it has to be 28 days before visa expiry.

The kids and my wife are not applying together because of limited funds to show the total maintenance funds for 90 days. most of our funds go to mortgage. Hope this wont work against us.
visa expires in october 2018 and we should apply for the kids latest by last week of sept by post.

i am not sure if i can approach my current employer who provided my last CoS before i gained ILR to provide a letter of maintenance for my family. will this be acceptable?

i have put some fund into my wife account for her to show maintenance fund for herself for 90 days as she is now main applicant (as i am on ILR now)

Thanks for help

Your employer is not able to certify maintenance for your dependents once you have been granted ILR.
