Nice to hear Greenabe18's story but i hope Sony78 you realise that Greenabe18's husband applied from abroad and thats a huge difference with your incountry application.

Yes I do know her partner applied from abroad.Biometrics done,acknowledgement too received saying my application has been passed on to a casework unit.The initial application was rejected because it was on the old form,so I made a new one on the updated form and now I am waiting...might be further information required...might be final decision.Fingers crossed and as always,positive.

hey Sony thanks, Which country are you from? i think ukba requesting documents is a good sign, every case is differnt and it also depends with the case worker, but i think in your case you would win even at apeal coz u have an established family, Good luck man, hope you have a successful out come, keep us updated.

Hi
I wonder if anyone could help me with some advice.
I submitted a spouse visa application but my application has been put on hold because I do not meet the financial requirements.
My wife is a British citizen. I got 2 jobs. My first job I earn £15 000 per annum and second job £7000 per annum. This clearly shows I earn above the requirement required.
But second job wages goes into a joint bank account with my cousin who was looking after me as a mother when I was a student. The home office will not allowed me to use a joint account with relative even though I gave them letter confirming about my second job belong to me.
Can you advice me how to support my claim in this situation?
