Child Visa UK


Spouse and Children

Your partner and children (‘dependants’) may be able to apply to come to the UK or stay longer in the UK.

You must be one of the following:

  1.  A full-time student on a postgraduate level course (RQF level 7 or above) that lasts 9 months or longer
  2.  A new government-sponsored student on a course that lasts longer than 6 months
  3.  A Doctorate Extension Scheme student


Your relationship

A dependant partner or child is one of the following:

  1.  Our husband, wife or civil partner
  2.  Your unmarried partner
  3.  Your child under 18 years old – including if they were born in the UK during your stay

You’ll need to provide evidence of your relationship when you apply, for example:

  • a marriage or civil partnership certificate for your partner
  • a birth certificate for your child


If your child is 16 or 17

If your child is 16 or 17 on the date you apply you’ll need to prove they are not living an independent life, for example they’re not married or in a civil partnership.

You’ll need to prove:

  1.  Where they live – if they do not live with you, you’ll need to explain why
  2.  Any rent or upkeep they pay you each month
  3.  That you support them financially if they do not live with you

If your child lives with you, you’ll need to provide 2 of the following documents confirming their address:

  1.  A bank statement
  2.  Credit card bills
  3.  Driving licence
  4.  NHS registration document
  5.  An official letter from their university or college


When they do not need to prove they have money to support themselves

Your partner or child does not need to prove they have this money if they’ve been in the UK with a valid visa for at least 12 months.

If you and your partner or child are from a country listed under the ‘differential evidence requirement’ and you’re applying at the same time, they do not need to prove they have money to support themselves.

However, they might be asked to provide this evidence before they get a decision on their application.

If they do need to provide it, they’ll be contacted by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) after they’ve submitted their application.

Apply outside the UK

Your partner and children must either:

1. apply online as your partner

2. apply online as your child

They’ll need your application number – you get it when you apply. This number is called a Global Web Form (GWF) or a Unique Application Number (UAN). You’ll find it on emails and letters from the Home Office about your application.

As part of their application, they’ll need to have their fingerprints and photograph taken at a visa application centre (to get a biometric residence permit).

They’ll have to collect their biometric residence permit within 10 days of when they said they’d arrive in the UK.

They may be able to pay to get their visa faster or use other services depending on which country they’re in – check with the visa application centre.


How long they can stay

If their application is successful, their visa will end on the same date as yours.


Apply inside the UK to extend or switch

Apply for your partner or child’s visa at the same time as you extend or switch your own visa.

If you cannot apply at the same time, your partner or child can apply to extend or switch their visas at a later date – this must be before their current visa expires.

Your partner or child cannot apply to switch in the UK if they have one of the following visas:

  1.  A visit visa
  2.  A short-term student visa
  3.  A Parent of a Child Student visa
  4.  A seasonal worker visa
  5.  A domestic worker in a private household visa


Fees

Each person will need to pay:

1. £475 for the visa

2. The healthcare surcharge – check how much they’ll have to pay

They may need to pay £19.20 to have their biometric information (fingerprints and a photo) taken.


Children born in the UK

Apply online for any children you have while in the UK.

You’ll need to provide a full UK birth certificate for each child.
