child settlement ?

[krssubbu]

Hi,

I am on ILR in the UK. My wife and baby are in India. i want to get them to the UK. I know for my wife i need to do a spouse visa. For my child i throught of doing a similar dependant visa at the same time of my wife visa (with the same set of documents - photocopy) but i am confused with the following taken from the home office website:

By 'child' we mean someone who is under 18 years old.

Children cannot normally come to settle in the UK unless both parents are settled here or have been given permission to settle here. The only exceptions are where:
1 parent is dead and the other is settled or coming to settle here; or
the parent who is settled or coming to settle in the UK has had sole responsibility for the child's upbringing; or
1 parent is settled or coming to settle in the UK and there there are serious reasons why the child must be allowed to come here.


Do i fall under the above category ? can i apply spouse visa for my wife and child dependant visa for my baby at the same time ?

yes - para 301(i)(a). You are settled and your wife (will be) being admitted on the same occasion for settlement as your child.

thanks for this Greenie..the page looks more like law points and confusing. So can i apply for my wife and child at the same time?

Thanks
