IHS surcharge says no dependants

Post by yuldo » Thu Jun 07, 2018 6:36 am

Hi, this is very frustrating! I finished my tier 2 application and went to pay the IHS surcharge, but the surcharge summary page says 'You don't have any dependants' and afterwards wants me to hit the 'correct' button without any way to change this statement. But in fact I do have a wife and child, who are applying at the same time as me, as dependants. Did I do something wrong in my application? Or else what should I do here? Hope someone can help me...

Did you complete separate forms for your dependents??

Yes, I did. I completed and signed both under the 'apply for someone else' part of the form. The only potential complication I can think of is that both are planning to come a few weeks after me, but I can't see why that would make a difference.

Pay their IHS separately to generate their own number if you have done a separate form for them.

Thanks, yes I assume that is what will happen if I just continue with all three applications. I am just a bit nervous about hitting that green 'correct' button under 'You have no dependents'. Hopefully it will be ok.

Yuldo, I have encountered the same confusion in my application. From this thread, it seems that I should just ignore the 'no dependants' line and continue on. Based on your completed visa application experience, can you confirm that this is correct?

Thanks in advance!

Joe
