Looking forward to hear back from you.

Yes.

[Shar1990]

Thank you for replying.
Could you please ans second query too.
Can I work and study both while on dependent visa. Do we have any restriction on number of hours I can work.

Looking forward to hear back from you.

You don't need a student visa, which has work restrictions of 20 hours per week.

On an ict dependent visa you can work and study.

Hello Team,
While applying for dependent visa, I noticed name on marriage certificate is like
Xyz now known as xyz + husband name married to abc.

Now my passport has just my original name. That is only xyz. Is This going to create problem ?
Shall my passport also have xyz + husband name?

[CR001]

Unclear what your question is. Is your maiden name abc or xyz??

[Shar1990]

In marriage certificate -

Lizzy Edward now known as Lizzy Edward John Smith married To John Smith.

In passport My name is Lizzy Edward. Do I have to change my name on my passport to Lizzy Edward John Smith ? Before applying for spouse visa.

[CR001]

I hope these are sample names and not real names.

Is the name in your PASSPORT your married name or your name since birth.

[Shar1990]

Passport has same name as my Birth name.

[CR001]

It's fine, there is no legal requirement that you must change your passport.

[Shar1990]

Thank you so much

Hi,

Currently i hold ICT visa and planning to change to Tier 2 ICT dependent and work for employer and do studies.

In future, if my employer get ready to sponser me. Will it be easier to switch from dependent visa to Tier - 2 General or Tier 4.

Pls guide.

[CR001]

Tier 4 you can switch within the UK.

Tier 2 ICT Dependent you must apply from home country.

What do you plan to study? There are restrictions on what you can study as a Tier 2 ICT Dependent.

See point 66 on page 14.
