Visa Overview
A dependent visa allows family members of a primary visa holder to live with them in a foreign country. Typically, spouses, children, and sometimes parents qualify as dependents. The visa grants rights to stay, and sometimes work or study, depending on the country’s rules. Applicants must provide proof of relationship, financial support, and meet health and character requirements. Dependent visas help families stay united during work, study, or residency abroad.
