Hello sir, if student is married but wants to apply for student visa without dependant is it possible
Hello!
Yes, if a student is married but wants to apply for a UK Student visa without bringing their spouse as a dependant, it is absolutely possible. The UK immigration rules for Student visas focus on the individual student's eligibility for their course and their ability to maintain themselves financially.
The fact that you are married does not prevent you from applying as a single applicant. You will just need to meet all the standard Student visa requirements, such as having a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) from a licensed sponsor, proving you have enough money to support yourself and pay for your course, and meeting the English language requirements.
The rules around bringing dependants for Student visa holders have changed recently. As of January 1, 2024, most international students can no longer bring dependants to the UK, unless they are:
* Studying a PhD, other doctoral qualification, or a research-based higher degree.
* A government-sponsored student on a full-time course lasting at least 6 months.
So, if your course doesn't fall into these categories, you wouldn't be eligible to bring your spouse as a dependant anyway, which aligns with your intention to apply without them.
