Regarding dependent visas, many new immigrants or those working and studying in Hong Kong have various questions, such as: When is the best time to apply for a dependent visa? Today, I will discuss this with everyone.

1. For applicants under the Quality Migrant Admission Scheme who are married with children, it is recommended to apply for the dependent visa together with the quality migrant application. This way, your quality migrant application can gain additional points. If your spouse has a bachelor's degree, you can add 5 points, and for children, each child adds 5 points, with a maximum of 10 points.

2. For applicants under the General Employment Policy, you can apply together or separately. It is generally recommended to apply separately because the General Employment Policy is a work visa aimed at allowing you to work, not to immigrate with your family. If you apply together, it may lead to misunderstandings with the immigration department.

3. For postgraduate study immigration, the main applicant must obtain a student visa and apply for a Hong Kong resident ID card before applying for the dependent visa.
