Bishoy95 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Hi All, I am enquiring about the 143 Contributory Parent visa in the Dependent Child matter. I have already applied with my family as a dependent child, and the visa has been acknowledged on the 29/07/2016. The rule at that time was: the dependent child can be under 25 years old, but it needs a proof od dependency, after that, they have changed the rule on the 17/11/2016 as the dependent child could only be under 18. My question is, am I still be included because I have applied before the rule has been changed or they would reject me as the new law would be applied? Help Please Thanks!

The ‘child’ always needed to prove dependency, a non dependant 21 year old for example would never have got a visa , they changed the maximum age to 23. It was never they needed to be under 25 but needed proof after that. After that was a decline, before that dependency still needed to be proved. How old are you and how are you still dependant? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishoy95 Posted February 5, 2020 Author Share Posted February 5, 2020 I am 24 years old dependent on my family and I am still a full-time student doing my master's degree which will end in June this year. I am not too sure if am I need to keep studying after that or no as I am expecting for them to ask for the further documents in 2 months time The thing that there is no proof if they would accept me as I applied before the changes have been made.
