Wife and two kids applying for UK settlement, unsure what visa for the kids...

Hi, i'm just starting to apply for my wife of 11 years and two kids (from her previous relationship, not UK by decent) to apply for a settlement visa to live in the UK. My question is:

My wife will apply for a spouse settlement visa but what do i apply for the kids since they are coming with my wife? Are they covered in her application or do i have to apply separately for "child of settled person" visa for each one?

Thanks for the help, i'm really confused on this one...

It will have to be a separate appliation.

3 separate applications.

So the kids will be "child of settled person" and the wife "spouse"?

yes. good luck--your bank balance will go into meltdown

Yes, i know. Ugly...

So on the application am i the sponsor for the kids as well as my wife or is she the sponsor since they inherit her status?

You are for all three. How old are they?

Who is @bigmac or the cost?

16 and 17, why does the age matter at all so long as they are under 18?

Hahahaha, never met him i'm afraid so no comment. But the cost is really insane for a larger family.

i resemble that remark

Just thinking about CFO seminar they will have to attend for 11 to 18 year olds
No English test
TB test both yes

You and me both

Denbigh by name and location?

it will be interesting to see what you get charged for the IHS for the kids. weve just done an app for my wifes 11 year old--and ..no charge for IHS !--and 2 others on this site got the same just recently. dont know why.

Apparently big mac there is a glitch in their system that's not been allowing payment to be taken for the kids but you'll be sent a link when they realise it's not been paid...The same has happened with ours but I've not been contacted yet and we're on day 60 today surprise surprise...

So that's another.....??
