Have already submitted my visa application, only then I was told my 2 years son need his separate own application. How do I submit it and do I have to send evidence documents twice? And also do I pay a separate visa fees and another appointment?



Best Answer

Typically you submit your child’s application in exactly the same way as your own, quoting your reference in the child’s application. The same fee is payable for both applications. If you don’t submit the applications at the same time you will need to provide documentation with the subsequent application.
