What is a Dependent Visa?

To qualify for a Dependant Visa, you must be a dependant family member of a qualifying migrant. The Immigration Rules define a ‘dependant’ as being a:

  • Husband, wife or civil partner;
  • Child aged less than 18 years at the time of application.

It is highly unlikely that any other family members would be successful in claiming dependant status for the purposes of a Dependant Visa. To obtain a Dependant Visa as a spouse or partner, you must be the spouse or partner of someone who is applying for a visa at the same time as you are making your application for a Dependant Visa

  • Both parents are applying for entry-clearance at the same time, or;
  • Both parents are already in that country and the child is applying to join them, or;
  • One parent is already in the overseas country and the other parent is applying for entry-clearance to join them along with the child.
  • The parent is the only surviving parent; or
  • The parent has sole responsibility for the child’s upbringing; or
  • There are serious or compelling reasons for why the child can exceptionally apply as the dependant of only one of his/her parents.

An essential requirement of the Dependant Visa is that the families have enough money to support themselves without having to rely on public funds.
