i want to bring to UK ny child from another woman

[AROLE]

I have a child from another woman out of wedlock and I want to bring her to the UK under Tier 1 general dependant. Will they require DNA proof to grant her the Tier 1 Gen dependant VISA from outside the UK

[PaperPusher]

Where is the child's mother? Does she look after her child?

[AROLE]

THE CHILD'S MOTHER LIVES OUTSIDE THE UK BUT I HAV BEEN TAKING CARE OF THE CHILD SINCE BIRTH

[PaperPusher]

Does she look after her child? Are you living in the UK at the moment, and if so, how long have you been in the UK?

Has your child lived with you?

It is a bit more complicated than getting a DNA test.
