The NHS Surcharge in relation to spouse or "partner" visa applications

The son is as much part of the settlement visa as the mother when you think about it, he will be covered by the visa just like his mum, he has to have paperwork just like mum to show he is in the UK legally under a visa.

and has to pay the full settlement visa fees--and the surcharge.

He will be down as a dependant on the FLR paper work, its not really a case of he applies as well

i think anyone applying for a visa--with children as well--would be well advised to seek proper professional assisstance in view of the massive visa and surcharge costs.

I believe for the visa application he will be on his mum's paperwork but for the NHS surcharge it is the same for children as adults.

oh ?

Its not cheap is it, just imagine if you had three or four kids in tow, doesn't bear thinking about.

Correction, the mother pays for the application in which her son is included as a dependant, but yes the surcharge is payable for both.

Having the new NHS surcharge now is making things even more confusing with the application

i'm not so sure the visa fee isnt the same for the child.

thats a lot of car washing big mac

It is the same I read.

I think the visa fee is the same.

Hi everyone, i am so confused, i am going to apply for spouse visa and i will bring my daughter as well, should i need to pay for this? Thank you..

Is your daughter a British citizen? If so, then no. If not, then yes.

Not sure with fiance visas, but the FLR form I had from last time has a fee of £578, or £953 if applying in person (this has since gone up).

It says on the form: "For each dependant applying with you, the fee increases by £433 for standard applications and £808 for applications made in person."

Dependent Children are included in the same application form, so a 6 month fiancee visa for someone bringing a child would also have a 6 month visa for the child. The 2.5 year FLR would then also include a 2.5 year FLR for the child. And so on.

One of my daughter is british and the other is not as shes my daughter from my past relationship

Unfortunately, I believe the one who isn't a British Citizen will need to be part of the visa application as a dependent child. You'll also have to pay the NHS surcharge for her as well as yourself.

Oh ok,
