SPOUSE VISA

A Dependent Visa is a special type of visa that allows the spouse and children of someone with a corresponding visa to live with them in another country. This is mainly for people who are moving abroad for work and might have opportunities for advancement.

With a dependent visa, your family members can:

  1. Live with you in the new country.
  2. Travel around and explore the new place.
  3. Sometimes they can work too, depending on the rules.
  4. They can also get permission to stay in the country temporarily or even permanently.

If you’re an international student who finished school or a master’s program, you can apply for a dependent visa for your spouse or children.

To apply, you’ll need:

  • Your passport and your family’s passports.
  • Proof of your marriage or partnership.
  • Birth certificates for your children.
  • Medical test results.
  • Proof that you have enough money to support your family.
  • Proof of your job or employment status.
  • Sometimes you’ll need more papers showing you’re allowed to work where you’re going.

Here are the steps to apply:

  1. Get all your documents together.
  2. Fill out the application form.
  3. Pay the visa fee.
  4. Go to the embassy or consulate in your area.
  5. They’ll look at all your papers.
  6. They’ll decide whether to give you the visa or not.
  7. If everything is okay, they’ll give you the dependent visa.

That’s it! Just follow these steps, and hopefully, you’ll get the visa for your family.
