The simple test works fine for me.

[garrick at hpcjr-master garrick]$ echo sleep 60 | qsub
81384.hpcjr-master.usc.edu
[garrick at hpcjr-master garrick]$ echo sleep 60 | qsub -W depend=afterok:81384
81385.hpcjr-master.usc.edu
[garrick at hpcjr-master garrick]$ echo sleep 60 | qsub -W depend=afterok:81385
81386.hpcjr-master.usc.edu

After 1.5 minutes:
81384.hpcjr-master.u garrick  batch    STDIN       10643     1  --    -- 01:00 C 00:00
81385.hpcjr-master.u garrick  batch    STDIN       10804     1  --    -- 01:00 R   --
81386.hpcjr-master.u garrick  batch    STDIN         --      1  --    -- 01:00 H   --

And after 2.5 minutes:
81384.hpcjr-master.u garrick  batch    STDIN       10643     1  --    -- 01:00 C 00:00
81385.hpcjr-master.u garrick  batch    STDIN       10804     1  --    -- 01:00 C 00:00
