Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

I think I have to write both as my savings (from 6 months ago) was around 10,000 and has now reached 24,000 through transferring money from my current account which was £12,000 (from 6 months) and the current account dropped to as low as about £200 at one point as I transferred the bulk of it to my...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

One other question, the below question in the application form is confusing me for some reason. I have two accounts so I should put the figures from both accounts 6 months ago for this part ? Or do I need to try and work out the lowest each account reached in the past 6 months ? “What amount of sav...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

See if this thread will help. It appears the user was successful. Thanks mate that is useful. I think what is confusing me is because the form separates the two accounts. The two accounts combined my money does not drop below £20,000 which is £3000 more than we need. However if you take each accoun...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

Yeah you are probably right, no point taking the risk. I just paid for it from the eservices.landregistry.gov.uk website and noticed it says at the top of the download that this 'is not an official copy'. I am sure I have read somewhere else on this website or online that isn't problem? Shouldn't b...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

Re the Land Registry, my parents have given me their copy of the 'Title Register' which is the official one, says 'Official copy of register of title' dated 2018 when they bought their property and it identifies them as the owners and when they bought it. 3 pages in total. I guess this is what is r...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

Thats good to know. Yeah it seems it isn't possible for them to stamp anything as I read quite a few things from other people applying saying the same thing. One thing I have just realised is my salary gets paid in on the 28th of the month and my last bank statement is dated until the 26th. I just ...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

The letters are signed and are clearly on headed bank stationary but don’t have a stamp. I asked the manager of the bank (HSBC) and they said they don’t do stamps for that and the template letter they do is what they’ve used for customers who make these requests. I guess that is not a problem ? The...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

Ok sure cheers! I did a couple of months temp work with my current company before I joined permanently. I guess this is not relevant ? Anything out of range/scope can be ignored. Just to be clear, all that should be evidenced and what they are interested in is savings and employment in the 6 months...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

Do my family also need to write a declaration re this transfer? No harm in attaching that but form might ask you to declare it. I can include the extra bank statement to show when it was transferred in. Thanks again! No need as it might not fall within the remit of prescribed 6 months. Ok sure chee...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

Yeah we have the bank statements, some of my money was a gift from family over a year ago, is it worth declaring that? Its not going to show on the 6 months of statements we will submit. If the innate provenance of those funds was that gift which still hasn't been used then ideally still declare it...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

I’ve had a little play around on the form and there was a tick box saying: “Payslips covering any period of salaried employment (current and previous) in the period of 12 months prior to the date of application” That most probably due to selecting the option 2/3/4 or B/c/d, where the system mistake...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

How would be best to word this in the letter or just not mention it? I have flight bookings and passport stamps evidencing me returning to Brazil each time. Don't mention it rather just attach the evidences such as tickets, passport stamps, pictures etc as part of subsisting relationship. Yeah that...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

How much savings do you have and how long have you held them in an accessible account? I have £25,000 and my wife has around £10,000 in BRL. Both amounts have been in our respective accounts for over 6 months. That should suffice to make up the shortfall. You will need the bank statement(s) for the...

Re: Sponsor supporting letter advice

It's too long. Make it brief. You are explaining what will be evidenced by documents you provide. ECO is only interested on evidence not explaination. Aslo take this out, "and NAME herself is very keen to find employment as soon as possible and start contributing to our income." She is joining you ...
