Dependant visa - child - reference number question

Post by aaj2111 » Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:23 pm

Hi, I am on the Tier 2 visa (converted from Tier 4)and am applying dependant visas for my wife and child. While filling the application for my child through the 'PBS, Start-up, Innovator or Global Talent – Child visa', there is a question : 'Do you have the reference numbers with options - Home Office reference number / VAF number / GWF number/ None'

I do not have any of them(VAF and GWF not applicable I think as I changed from Tier 4 to Tier 2). How can I find out home office reference number or any other if applicable? Or is it okay if I choose the option 'None'?

While making the application for my wife on the 'PBS, Start-up, Innovator or Global Talent –
Partner visa' , there was an additional option for UAN and I have entered that. But this option is not available on the child visa. Not sure why.

Any help / thoughts appreciated.

Thank you

Thank you hyans I have the UAN but my issue is that the option for entering UAN is not available on the online application form for 'PBS, Start-up, Innovator or Global Talent – Child visa'. The available options are only- Home Office reference number / VAF number / GWF number/ None' and I am not aware of these.

Hi all,
Is there anybody who has faced this similar issue. Any advise appreciated.

Just copying the query here again:
I am on the Tier 2 visa (converted from Tier 4)and am applying dependant visa for my child. There is a question to link the details of the person who the dependant visa holder will be joining in the UK - which is me.
I have the Unique Application Number but my issue is that the option for entering UAN is not available on the online application form for 'PBS, Start-up, Innovator or Global Talent – Child visa'. The available options are only- Home Office reference number / VAF number / GWF number/ None' and I am not aware of these.

Thank you.
