What would the supporting documentation be required ?

Is there a checklist ?

I am so anxious about this

Hi

Thanks for the update.

The money came directly from my work bank account where salary/bonuses are paid.

Thanks

Thanks

Finally after 3 months we got the visa. The ECO accepted the second marriage (and re-registered certificate). Thanks to everyone and all the mods for their advice.

Thank you CR001, so I shouldn't read too much into the delay (e.g. not gone to rejection team or anything like that)

I had sent my wifes application for family visa on 12th of Oct (confirmation email on 13th of Oct) On 26th of Dec I got an email stating "..a decision has been made" Since then I haven't got my docs back from the local (Kuwait) VFS so I sent another email last night and got a reply "...Please note t...

Now I am really worried !! I received the email that a decision was reached on my visa on Dec 26th. So far I have not received any email from VFS asking me to pick up my documents. If my visa was rejected then will the documents be sent to the Health Surcharge team to refunds the NHS fees - would th...

Well wonders will never cease...

Sent an escalation email yesterday afternoon (25th Dec) and got a reply this morning (at 5.35am) saying that "a decision has now been made on your application".

Now just have to wait for the VFS email ....

Thanks noajthan - Civil servants can be so inconsiderate taking holidays esp when our application is sitting on some desk gathering dust (or maybe they could just stamp "VISA" as its the holiday season lol)

Application submitted, biometrics completed and scanned documents sent to Sheffield all on 12th of Oct. 51 days later and a progress email states " I have tracked the status GWF000000000-00/00/0000 and found it is yet to be assessed by an Entry Clearance Officer (ECO). Your visa application centre o...

Hi

Did you receive your visa or not yet ?

Hi

I sent my wifes application on 14th of Oct. Sent them an email on 26th of Nov and they said it had been escalated, and another email saying that they were in their timeframes.

Should I send another email after 40 days of waiting or just sit tight ?

Thanks

Oh dear I think i can see trouble ahead !! On the new registered certificate the original marriage date is the same (15th of Feb 2015) - my decree absolute came in on 1st June 2015 - and the new registeration date (15th May 2016) So safer to hand the new amended certificate in with the decree absolu...

Honestly its been a BIG pain for the last few months - I think i have looked up 50+ countries to marry (I think the US is the easiest)

Do you think there will be an issue with me submitting all 3 documents (with an explaination) ?

Hi Casa There was nothing illegal or falsification about the marriage certificate. The Pakistani authorities could not give my wife a "No Objections Certificate" to remarry again as she was legally married already. I went there and explained to them the situation and they offered to re-register the ...

Final update: I managed to get my marriage certificate re-registered with Nadra after going there and explaining my situation So now I have - a marriage certificate (before my divorce) - my decree absolute - the above marriage certificate with a new registered date. Would this be acceptable to the E...

Ive asked a few quotes from solictors in London and am getting quotes of GBP8-10,000 plus to prepare an application !!

Hi I checked with the lawforum "You cannot make the application as neither you nor your new wife qualify. S55(2) makes it clear that only those domiciled at the time of the application or who have been habitually resident for the previous year can apply. I should of course have added that it was dom...

Hi i told them that i was domiciled in Kuwait at the time of the marriage in Feb 15 i.e. I have been living here for the past 8 years. I have a valid residency permit renewed every 2 years. I do have a residence in the UK but i rarely visit the UK (i.e. less than 40 days per tax year). Kuwait law do...

Hi all Update: 1. Wife recieved her full residency in Kuwait 2. I emailed the General Register in the UK about a civil wedding and this is the response from them : I refer to the documents and statements supplied regarding the validity of your marriage to {wife} on 15/02/2015, whilst still party to ...

I decided to chicken out of applying for visit visa becasuse the ECO might think it strange that she has only been in the country for one month and wants to travel to UK immiediately !

Hi Casa

Thanks for that.

How would we demonstrate that she wont abscond (who will help me learn how to cook )

Its literally a holiday..

Hi I am working outside of UK. My wife is currently living with me and we will apply for a spouse visa later on due to work committments. We were considering going to UK for a holiday and just wondering that if her visit visa is refused will this have an (negative) impact on our spouse visa later on...

Hi Amanda

Thanks for that reply - hopefully i'll update the board as soon as we have residency in Kuwait sorted out in order to get civil marriage !

Thanks
