adequate maintenance

[jaberdene]

Hi,
my wife is going to apply FLR M very soon under old rules. She doesn't include any dependent child in her form. We do need to show adequate maintenance fund. As mentioned in a sticky thread in this forum we need to show £482.92 income for couple after deducting council tax and rent.

But we have a son who will turn to 20 on May and lives with us. He will going to apply FLR O before his visa expire, probably few weeks later after my wife's application.

Im just wondering as for my wife's application our income support rate will still be £482.92 or increase with another benefit rate because of my son lives with us. Obviously he is not able to claim any child tax credit and child benefit due to he is turning 20 on this May?

please advice me on this , time is ticking...

cheers

Your disposable income has to the equivalent of means-tested benefit for a family of your size. So, the dependant son has to included in the calculation. The amount, therefore, would be £764 per calendar month after accommodation costs have been accounted for.

Could you please explain me precisely how did you work out the number £764?

Did you add personal allowance under 25 for my son to the amount of couples personal allowance?

I took the current weekly rate for an adult couple (111.45) and added the current weekly rate for a dependant child (64.99). I multiplied that total by 52 (weeks in a year) and then divided that by 12 (months in a year). This gives you a calendar month figure

Hi again
My wife will submit her payslips to support her FLR M App..
She works from agency which uses online payslip system. Every employees are given user id and password to check their payslips online and can print them out. Also they send the payslip to her email as pdf attachment.
Problem is the agency doesnt want to stamp on the printed payslip. But every wage is credited to her bank account weekly and it appears on her bank statement with same amount on payslips respectively.

So are these printed payslips (without stamp) affect her application outcome or not? Is it a thing we shouldnt worry about?

Thanks in advance
Jab
