Common mistakes
Confusing role D with child role C.
Role C is for children under 18, role D for dependants aged 18 and over. An adult student goes into the D fields.
Forgetting the police clearance for an adult dependant.
A dependant aged 18 or over provides a police clearance like every adult. Order it early, together with the second ID, CV and medical.
Leaving the occupation field D15 empty.
A student writes Student, a parent Retired or their job title.
