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
