Council tax bill is not compulsory which I mentioned in various threads but depending on an individual circumstances it really strengthens up the accomodation evidences especially like in op's case he just have title deed which alone seems insufficient. Also I remember a case where a person couldn't get the latest landlord's noc letter but he just attached the recent joint named council tax bill which straight away worked because it confirms that they both are living there. Moreover, the latest flrm online form do ask about council tax costs (maybe that question isn't being asked for spouse visa application). But means to say that council tax does have weight and in op's case he can also attach another utility bill which comes in the name of her uk sponsor wife but still council tax bill carry more weight although not compulsory.

4. Not to you but maybe to him
5. Read previous post and reply # 6
6. All these transfer of house legal documents can also be attached

2.What kind of problem her father can face?

Thanks Seagul brother

I think you got excessive answer over your situation and you have got exactly same replies on other forum by that site members which I accidently found during Google search and I have no interest there.

I will only add that if your father is claiming Council tax discount as a single person occupant of the property, this would be considered as benefit fraud, which is a criminal offence.

Don't know exact but i know that his son was with them(who is working) that time they have to pay full council tax now he has seperated and now they are again getting discount i think it's because non of them in their family working at this time. Or he or his wife disabled.

Could these things effect my spouse visa application?

Thanks Casa I'll appreciate if you help me on this matter

Assuming the council tax benefit is being claimed legally, there will be no impact on your visa application. A council tax bill/statement is an optional piece of evidence to help support ownership/occupation of the residence. It's irrelevant who's names are on the council tax bill and entirely unnecessary to include if your wife's name isn't even on it. You've been told what requirements you need to meet and your options for providing evidence of meeting the requirements, you need to decide what to include based on your circumstances.

Want to know if my wife scan all the supporting documents for my application in UK should these documents be original or i can send her coloured photocopies? If someone had experienced recently kindly guide me bcz someone is saying me the documents should be original and their coloured photocopies too in your hand at the vfs scanning centre

geoeng · Post by **geoeng** » Fri Sep 27, 2019 8:42 am

All documents scanned should be original and you are generally advised to bring the documents with you to the biometric appointment. Unfortunately I don't know whether copies are also required when applying from Pakistan as the process differs from country to country.

Butt I'm applying through cash savings route i need to give paper of rent agreements as evidence of cash saving should i send these original evidence to UK too? And original statments too? We are planning to scan our documents from UK

geoeng · Post by **geoeng** » Fri Sep 27, 2019 10:10 am

I'm a little unclear on what you're doing. Your wife is attending an application centre in the UK to have the documents scanned and uploaded? If this is the case then she will require the original documents to have scanned, don't send copies to be scanned.

Yes she's going to scan the documents. Should i send her attested copies of rent agreements or original one?

I've answered that question twice already. If someone else is telling you differently, you are free to go with what they've said as I'm far from an expert, just saying what's in the rules/guidance.

Want to ask a question about savings in Pakistan

I have savings in my my Pakistani account about 52000 pound if i go to cash saving route can the immigration officer ask me about tax returns as evidence?

geoeng · Post by **geoeng** » Mon Sep 30, 2019 8:32 am

If they want more evidence, they can ask for it. You do not have to provide such information initially with the application based on the guidance.

From this page (https://www.gov.uk/uk-family-visa/provide-information), you only need to provide "copies of the photo page and any visa or entry stamps in your previous passports" so I would just scan the photo page and any other pages that aren't blank for each old passport.
