A UK Dependent Visa enables qualified family members of eligible individuals who possess UK visas or UK residency to move to the UK. The dependent visa gives authorized family members the same rights to live and work or study in the UK as the primary visa holder. The benefit extends to people who qualify as dependents of Skilled Worker visa holders, international students and British citizens. Each visa classification maintains specific requirements which applicants need to fulfil. The UK dependent visa pathway even allows dependents to seek Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) after five years of residence.
