Leaders, or can be referred to as principal applicants, are the individuals who are qualified for a UK visa based on work or study in the UK. Top applicants can sponsor their dependent (if they pass the eligibility criteria) members to apply for a dependent visa. The dependent visa will allow them to join the principal family applicant and allow them to reside in the UK.
The stay of the dependent visa always depends on the stay of the sponsor. For example, if a child is applying, their sponsorship visa duration will rely on the parent’s different visa lengths. Similarly, the same procedure is involved with all other dependency visas.
A skilled worker is granted indefinite leave to remain their dependent partner and can apply for ILR. If the dependent partner doesn’t qualify for ILR simultaneously, they can apply for an extension of the dependant visa through the dependent visa route.

To apply for the visa on behalf of the dependents, the applicant has to prove that he has enough funds to support the dependents and will not rely on state or public funds to support them. Dependents on their part will have to prove that they intend to live with the primary applicant during their stay and their relationship is genuine.
