Tier 1/HSMP Dependant Visa Query!

[bonvivz]

Hi All,

I am due to apply for Tier 1/HSMP extension in the month of may and my visa expires on june last week(in country), my wife was with me on dependant visa until recently we have to visit india for emergency visit, my son was born in UK in november 2008 and has no visa(thought of applying visa for him during extension) and now hes in india. In order to apply for their dependant visa from india, I have the following questions:

1. Maintenance Funds:

Wife : is it £533(she was in country for more than 12 months) or £1600 for last 3 months while applying EC for her

Son: I think its £1600 for last 3 months for him

2. Rest of the documents as mentioned in the above post(bank statements/pay slipts/etc)

Some friends informed that if applying from india the maintenance funds are higher for dependants,

Can anybody please clarify my doubts.

Regards

u will have to show 533+533 for both of ur dependents and 800 for urself.
12 months period is considered for the main applicant and not for the dependents whether they apply for VISA in UK or outside UK.
