Tier 2 General Main Applicant and dependent

[sata37]

Hello,

Please someone can help me with the below questions.

I am planning to apply for Tier 2 General visa to the UK. I have the COS and other details required to apply for the visa. However, I want to first apply for my visa and when it is successful immediately apply for the dependents.
But what I am not clear if we all can travel together that is me and my dependents (wife and kids).
If this is the case what shall say for the question in the application for the main applicant - If the dependents are traveling with you or not??
Because I believe it is within 21 days we need to travel after getting the visa so hopefully, the dependents can get the visa within that time and we all can travel together??

Please if someone can suggest quicky??

Regards,
Sa

Your initial visa is valid for 30 days.

If you apply for your dependents separately, you risk not getting their visas in time to travel with you.

Really appreciate your quick response.

Yes, I was thinking about it as well. But since the initial visa is valid for 30days from the time I get it.
I was thinking if I apply on the priority Visa for the dependents (after I get my visa). I hope the minimum turnaround for priority visa is 10 days so expecting they do get the visa before time and we can travel together.

So, I believe to the question in the main applicant visa application - If the dependents are traveling with you or not?? - I should be saying 'NO' is that correct??
if you can clarify this further, please?

Regards,
Sa
