Can I apply visa for my dependants in another application after the main applicant is granted the visa? How long will it take to process such application?
one concern is that its a lot of money for visa application and in case the visa is refused.

This may be possible but you may have to give proper reason why you don’t have any dependents in your main application itself. The money part is some kind of a risk expected in the whole process.

thanks for the reply. What I am concerned is that if by any chance my visa application refused I am losing only half the money if I didn't include my dependants in the application. If I can make a subsequent application for dependants after getting my visa its pretty safer. There's no any other reason not to include.

I think anyway we have to get this risk when applying visa. So I will forget that and proceed with including whole family with the main application
