Need Help on Tier 4 dependent!

Post by saqi59 » Tue Jan 15, 2013 5:31 pm

I am studying ACCA (Level 7) and I do not have work permit right now in uk! my visa renewal time is December 2014.
I wanted to know if I want my spouse to apply for dependent visa now,
1) is she can have the right to work in UK.
2) Is she is going to have full time work right.

As stated above, you are more likely to be in a college which is not a publicaly funded and / or FE. If that is the case then you are not eligible to bring your spouse on a dependant visa.

Here is an authentic information about our case ... in UKBA
Can you bring your family?

This page explains whether and how you can bring your family members (also known as 'dependants') to the UK while you are here as an adult student under Tier 4 (General) of the points-based system.

Your dependants are:

your husband, wife, civil partner, unmarried partner or same-sex partner; and
your children aged under 18 years old.
From 4 July 2011, you cannot bring your dependants to the UK unless you are:

sponsored by a higher education institution on a course at NQF level 7 or above which lasts 12 months or more; or
a new government-sponsored student following a course which lasts longer than 6 months.
If your dependants are already in the UK with permission, they will be allowed to extend their stay provided they apply at the same time as you apply to undertake a course of study lasting more than 6 months.

Dependants must apply under the rules for points-based system dependants. You can download guidance from the right side of this page.
