Help

Dear All,

I have two queries, your experience input could be much appreciated....

1. I have a joint account in the bank with my wife. At present she is not in the country and she is Workpermit dependent. I am applying for ILR in Oct 2011 and she is not applying along with me due to family/personal reason, she is back home. In section 11 of the SET(O) form, there is a consent that joint customer should give if we are submtting any documents having joints. Is it acceptable that i will send the form to her and get it signed and also get a letter from her ( just in case!) OR Is it benefit of doubt that the joint customer is not in UK when i am applying for ILR ( This may be foolish question !!!, please advise )

2. I was trying to get the letter from Employer. The designation should be same as what is on the Home office workpermit ??

Your response shall be much apporecialted

1. I would think you would need some kind of permission coz that permission only allows UKBA to check the accounts. Think about a case in which you wife filing a complaint against UKBA for checking the accounts with out permission.
2. Yes. As per work permity rules, any changes should be notified to Home Office

You cannot apply for the person who is not in the country...so if your wife is not in UK at the time of application she cannot be considered for it.

Hello destiniation_london / Gopaalan

Thanks for the reply. Wife is not applying for ILR. Only i am applying for.

The Joint signature can be taken from her by sending the forms to her.

As told below, It is just for the verification.

Hope this is OK..

Please advise, if i missunderstood anything...
