Tier 2 general dependent visa - 6 months?

[nikhilkapadiya]

Hi,

I am currently on Tier 2 General visa ending in Aug 2014. I am sponsored by my employer. I am going to get another 6 months extension from August 2014 to Jan 2015. I want to bring my partner on dependent visa to stay with me.
I want my partner to join me as my dependent (dependent of Tier 2 general).
Can I bring my partner on dependent visa for 6 months? or should it have to be more than 6 months?

Yes, I don't think there is any such rule with regards to UKBA , My partner had earlier applied for 3 months Tier2 dependent visa and it was successful.

Hi venkatasureshs,

Thanks for your reply.
Do you mind if I ask you when did your partner applied for 3 months Tier 2 dependent visa? UKBA keep changing the rules very often. so just want to make sure this happened recently.

Thanks again
