Everyone who comes to the United Kingdom wants to know whether they can bring their family to the UK, and Yes, you can bring your family with you. Your family members (‘dependents’) can come with you when you come to the UK on your visa, but they need money to support themselves. You cannot bring anyone else to the UK.
A ‘dependent’ is any of the following:
- your husband, wife or married partner
- your child under 18
In order to prove that you will be able to support your dependents, your partner child/ children should have a specified amount of money available in the bank. This is necessary while applying for a dependent visa to the UK. Your spouse will have all the rights to live and work in the UK. They will have all the rights to do any job in the UK.
Please note you will not have any recourse in the public funds and it’s your responsibility to meet the cost of their stay in the UK. Click here for detailed information on bringing your family to the UK.
