    Why you need a Dependent Visa in UK?

    A UK dependent visa enables you to travel with or have your family members join you in the UK. The dependent must be your family member or partner. Being your dependent partner means, you have a genuine and subsisting relationship with them. A dependent is any of the following:

    • Husband or wife.
    • Unmarried or civil partner.
    • Child (under 18 years of age).

    A dependant visa differs from a UK spouse visa, marriage visa, and family visa, though they enable you to join your family in the UK.

    Your access to a dependent visa relies on the type of visa or leave to remain you have. The following type of UK visa enables you to stay in the UK with your family:

    • Some long-term work visas.
    • Qualifying short-term work visas.
    • Student visa (depending on course/level of study)
    • Investor, business development and talent visas.

    The financial requirements are:

    • Spouse or partner – £285.
    • A dependent child – £315.
    • Additional child – £200.

    You or your child must have had the money for 28 consecutive days preceding your application.

    • You have a certificate of sponsorship from your spouse or partner’s employer that funds your family’s living expenses during your first month in the UK.

    If you are not applying at the same time with your spouse or partner, you only need to provide proof of financial support if you have been staying in the UK for under a year.

    What Is the Cost of the Dependent Visa Application?

    The Visa application fee depends on your UK immigrant spouse or partner type of visa. You do not need to pay a visa fee if you meet the following criteria:

Your visa fee depends on your nationality and the type of visa your spouse or partner holds. Reach out to IAS for more information on the cost of applying for a Dependent Visa.

    What Are the Procedures for Dependant Visa Application

    Application for a dependant spouse visa application is online. If you are applying with your child, you do not need to apply separately. Before starting your application process, verify if you need a visa to travel as a dependant.

    If you do not require a visa, you must prove your identity. Providing your identity is verifying that you are eligible to bypass getting a visa and move on with your application.

    If you are eligible to come to the UK without a visa and do not have a valid passport, you will have to apply for a Partner Dependant visa or Children Dependant visa, as the case may be.

    Application Procedure at a Glance

    Step #Step nameKey actionsTypical timeframe / notes

    How to Prove Your Identity from Outside the UK

    To prove your identity as a spouse or partner and children of a UK immigrant, you must either:

    1. Provide your biometric information – fingerprints and photographs.

    If you can not provide your biometric online, you must provide your biometrics at a visa application centre close to you. If you do not have a centre in your country, you will have the travel to the one near your country. The visa office will use your biometric information to process your Biometric Residence Permit.

    Your Biometric Residence Permit will help you prove your identity, study permission, and entitlement to public services and other benefits.

    1. Verify your identity through the ID Check App.

    You can verify your identity through the free UK Immigration: ID Check app. Your passport must have a biometric chip to use this app.

    The app will scan your biometric chip for your information. You can also upload your photo.

    The application is compatible with iPhone and Andriod with near-field communication (NFC) feature.

    If you are applying for your children, you can use the app to verify their identity.

    1. Create UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) account

    You can create a UKVI account to verify your identity, apply to join your spouse or partner, and access other immigration services. You need your email address, passport, phone number, and date of birth to open an account.

    Locate a Visa Application Centre

    Suppose you do not have a valid passport to affirm your identity or you plan to live in Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man. In that case, you must locate a visa application centre in your country or close to you to provide your fingerprints and facial photograph.

    Have All Your Documents

    Before you apply, ensure to have all documents ready for submission. Verify the documents that apply to your status as a spouse, civil partner, unmarried or proposed civil partner, or child.

    Start Your Application

    Download and complete your application form. Submit all your supporting documents while submitting your application form.

    You will need to pay your visa fee and immigration health surcharge as part of your application process. Your health surcharge depends on your nationality, visa type, and other considerations. You can calculate your health surcharge before applying.

    If you are unable to finish your application on time, you can save it and resume later. The system will automatically log you out after 25 minutes of inactivity.

    After your application, you may need to book an appointment at the visa application centre to submit your biometrics. You will have to pay extra fees for biometric registration.

    Applying from inside the UK: Visa Extension or Switch

    If you wish to stay longer than your duration of leave to remain, you can extend or switch your visa when your spouse or partner applies for an extension or switch of visa. You can also apply with your partner or spouse before your visa deadline.

    Children who turned 18 during their stay can also get a visa extension or switch.

    When Do I Get a Decision on a Dependent Visa?

    Once you submit your application and documents and successfully prove your identity, you will get a decision within 3 to 8 weeks, depending on your partner’s type of visa.

    You may get options to make your visa decision process faster than the standard duration after your application. The faster options are:

    • Priority service: You will get your decision within five working days.
    • Super priority service: You will get your decision the next working day.

    Note that working days are Mondays to Fridays and exclude bank holidays.

    You will need to pay extra charges for faster service. Priority service requires a fee of £500. Super priority service requires payment of £1,000.

    You will get a notification if there is a delay in your application processing due to the following:

    • Verification of supporting documents.
    • Need for an interview.
    • Personal circumstances, such as criminal conviction.

    How Long Can You Stay in the UK with a Dependent Visa?

    Your duration of stay in the UK depends on your visa type. If you apply as a dependant spouse or civil partnership, you will get leave to remain for up to 3 years. If you are an unmarried partner, you will get six months of leave to remain.

    You can apply for an extension if your visa duration exceeds your spouse’s or partner’s stay duration.

    Length of Stay for Dependant Visas

    Dependant typeLeave granted when applying (outside UK)Extension / Switch possible?Notes
    Spouse / civil partnerUp to 3 yearsYesLeave linked to principal’s visa duration.
    Unmarried partner6 monthsPossibly (if criteria change)Much shorter initial leave; applicant should monitor eligibility.
    Dependant childUsually same duration as parent(s)YesMust still satisfy dependency criteria at extension time.

    What Can You Do During Your Stay in the UK?

    Rights & Restrictions for Dependant Visa Holders

    What If I Have a Child During My Stay in the UK

    If you have a child during your stay in the UK, your child is not entitled to British citizenship by birth. You must have a child dependent visa for your child to travel out and return to the UK without restrictions.

    You will need to prove your child’s identity with a UK birth certificate. The birth certificate must have your name and that of your spouse or partner as the parent.

    I spoke with Saima Jabeen about the areas where I needed assistance. She was very helpful and provided me with clear and useful information. I was satisfied with the support and guidance she provided.
    Very positive professional experience. My immigration advisor Mariam Adebayo helped my wife successfully obtain her Spouse visa extension. At the very start we had a face to face meeting at their Oldham office to discuss our needs, explain the process and what evidence we would need. We later received a written confirmation of advice laying out everything from timeframes, fees and documentation needed. Through out we had video calls and regular emails for updates and when our input was needed, Mariam even uploaded all of the extensive evidence as part of the application process which I was very happy with as I know from my own experience this can take a while. I would definitely use IAS again, don't be fooled in to opting for cheaper options, I came to IAS after a poor experience with a different company and so came back as I'd had a good experience with IAS way back in the 90's so know that they have been around for a years. Thank you IAS Oldham and Mariam Adebayo.

    I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Abdul Mutee for everything he has done throughout my visa process. The past year was incredibly stressful, especially after facing two Canada visa refusals. During this difficult time, Abdul Mutee did not simply provide guidance; he actively worked on my case and supported me every step of the way when I felt overwhelmed and uncertain about my future. Thanks to his dedication, hard work, and continuous support, my UK visa has now been approved. This approval allows me to continue my education and pursue my dream of becoming a dentist. I truly believe that this achievement would not have been possible without his assistance and commitment. Abdul Mutee played a significant role in making this outcome possible, and I am deeply thankful for the relief, hope, and opportunity he has given me. His efforts have made a lasting impact on my life, and I will always be grateful for everything he has done. I will never forget the support, encouragement, and professionalism he showed throughout this journey. Abdul Mutee's help has made a real difference in my future, and I sincerely appreciate all of his hard work and dedication.

    I used IAS for my first visa and I must say it wasn't a pleasant experience. We didn't receive all the information, we would find out about things along the way and it made it all very stressful even though the application was successful. We were a bit reluctant to do it again for the renewal but went for it anyway due to lack of time. Anne Liu was out caseworker and she was terrific! Super on top of the case! She would review the docs very quickly after we submitted it and would immediately tell us what would be missing. She made herself available when we needed her all the way up to the appointment. Definitely made the experience more stress free!

    Anne has been nothing short of exceptional throughout mine and my husbands immigration query. From the very start, she was informative, diligent, understanding, compassionate and helpful. Any immigration matter is delicate and stressful for those involved and Anne met us with patience and kindness throughout, keeping us well informed and calm when everything felt tricky. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better advisor and we are so grateful for everything that she did for us to get my husbands spousal visa approved. Her dedication and commitment proved enormously valuable and I will be welcoming my husband home tomorrow because of her. Without a doubt we will use her again in 2029 when required and we cannot recommend her enough for anyone going through a similar matter. Thank you Anne, from the bottom of our hearts, we will always appreciate you and remember your engagement fondly.

    I cannot recommend Mariam Adebayo at IAS highly enough. She supported me thoroughly from A–Z throughout my UK Global Talent Visa journey, ultimately helping me successfully obtain my visa through the Exceptional Talent route. From the very beginning, Mariam was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, patient, and attentive. She guided me through every stage of the process with clarity and reassurance, always making sure that my application was as strong and comprehensive as possible. What stood out most was how consistently she went above and beyond her dedication, responsiveness, and genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for me were evident throughout the entire journey. Thanks to Mariam’s exceptional support and hard work, I now have the incredible opportunity to continue developing and practicing my talent in the UK. This is a truly significant milestone in my professional and creative journey, and I am extremely grateful for the role she played in making it possible. Mariam is an outstanding caseworker and a true asset to IAS. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking immigration support, particularly those applying through the UK Global Talent route. Thank you, Mariam, for your dedication, guidance, and for helping turn this opportunity into a reality.

    My case worker Mariam Adebayo guided my fiancee, a Belarusian national and me on what documentation and translations were required and checked through everything at every stage. She then made the application on our behalf for a fiancee visa. The application was 100% successful with no other documentation required or any queries raised by UKVI. Mariam further assisted in getting our spouse visa after our marriage in May 2026. Again 100% successful. Mariam has been extremely thorough in every part of our fiancee and spouse visa. Everything went through without a hitch! I have no hesitation in recommending her. Peter and Teresa Welch.
