Hubbysluv:
Please will they interview adult dependent like(your spouse) or just the main applicant?


Only the main applicant will be interviewed, all other dependants will just need to submit their documents and do biometrics.

MamaG2020:
Good morning family, I will like to know if I apply for visa as a primary applicant first and get positive outcome, can my dependants (hubby and kid) apply immediately in order to meet up travelling together.

Second, if they can't meet up and it requires me to go first, can my hubby be allow to bring my a year old kid?

Any of this category already in UK for MSc. that I can get first hand info base on how they did it and interview questions



Also, anybody in middlesbrough I can get info from about accommodation for family in a good and safe area.



Whichever way you want to apply is good. But PBS tier 4 guidelines requires that applicant and their dependants apply at the same time so that the application can be treated as one. If there are reasons personal to you that your dependants can’t apply with you then you are still on track. But note that if you apply alone, there is a portion in the form where you will fill in when you intend to travel, will you be travelling with dependants? How you answer these questions will determine if they can apply immediately after you or you will have to travel before they can apply. Be properly guided.

mimilyrics:
Call them immediately. Are you sure that you mailed Lagos or Abuja? Normally it's the location you send a mail to that will respond. Mail Lagos now and/or call them immediately to fix an appointment for Lagos.

I travelled first before my wife joined me, but we applied at the same time. This was to make accommodation plans ready before she come around. I travelled as a first timer when I traveled. It is good to plan yourself well. Will not suggest hotel as there are studio accommodation with bills PCM cheaper than hotel.
When the main applicant travel before their dependants (spouse/child), no documents are required to be sent to them. Dependants just need to apply to joining their partner, your post code where you live in the UK will only be needed so they can include that in the application as where they will be living when they join you. Also the border force might ask them “where are you going “.
To answer the 3rd question. Be sincere with yourself, decide what you want because you will fill it in your application “Are you travelling with any dependants “. I advise you apply together, when your visa is approved, you can travel alone to make accommodation preparations before your dependants join you, but it must be between 30days because vignettes (permission to enter )expires in 30days after visa is approved. Hope this make sense?

Adeyemoab:
Thank you so much for this response. I would want to ask a question. I am the one going to Study in Scotland, my question is, if we apply together, (my husband and two kids ages 3 and 5), would my husband automatically get 40hrs per week work permit as a tier 4 dependant? Also, if we apply separately, (I apply first to receive my decision before they apply), would he still be eligible for the work permit? Thanks

bayosegun:
Please what's the best factor to work out £1 exchange to naira in case there's a flutuation in £ when putting maintenance funds for 30days. Is £500 to 1£ ok?

First of all I have no idea how it's £2975 since I made a deposit of 3K secondly who have also gone through this issue? Would this have any effect on my Visa application? Thirdly, how do I over come this if there is a way? Because clearly I think this is an issue in the fluctuation of the exchange rate with no one at fault.

Bukieinyang:
Good Day all,
Please how can a separated parent prove sole responsibility of a child in the visa application under tier 4 visa. Since the rule states that one should apply with a child and spouse together. In a case where the parents are separated and not in contact, how can this be proven?
Asides divorce certificate or death certificate?
Thank you.

mimilyrics:
You need either your spouse's permission or proof of separation. Your best bet would be to swear an affidavit stating that you haven't been in contact with your spouse and that you don't know his whereabouts. This is to avoid stories that touch.

Bukieinyang:
Thank you for your response, I appreciate.
Does the UK embassy recognize Nigerian affidavit?
And please do you know what will count as proof of separation as spouse permission won’t be possible as there is no contact?
Thank you.

solarinde:


Your husband (dependant) will not be limited to a number of hours to work he can do “unlimited” but he will need to get National Insurance NI number before he can work. Regardless of when he join you, he will need to book an appointment to obtain NI before he can work legally.

fcnaxo:
OK, so i work with a bank here in Nigeria, the question i would like to ask is , what was your mode of payment;

-FORM A?
-DIRECT TRANSFER from ur DOM account?

where did u request the charges be deducted from on your form? cos if u didnt tick anything or u ticked self and ur account is not funded enough, swift charges would be taken out of the principal amount.

Mosopea:
Hello everyone,
I have a few questions I need your opinions on
1) I applied for a visit visa to the UK in 2014 it was denied based on some documents missing, I reapplied 2 weeks later and it was successful- should I state the first refusal during my application?
2) will I as the principal applicant be the only one to take the visa interview? Or my spouse and possibly kids inclusive?

3) I was told not to let the school know I intend travelling with dependents. What do you think?
