Spouse Visa FLR M

If the application is a visa for your wife, it is likely only her that would need to be in the UK at the time of application provided you were still considered 'settled' in the UK. However, if she were to leave the UK after applying her application would be considered withdrawn.

I had to delay from Aug to Oct...due to her payslip because she had an increment in month of April which meets the financial requirements.
I am self employed and not submitted last year return yet. I had planned to apply on 1st week of October but its an emergency situation now.
- already applied for uknaaric for eng. language
- have obtained docs for cohabitation e.g. tenancy, same address driving licenses, gp letters etc...
- i have started withdrawing salary from may 19 (£20k) but not submitted returns yet and look impossible do that as am in india now

If we apply with super priority service...will that be alright ?

There is no cohabitation evidence requirement for initial FLRM/spouse visa whichever you choose rather any recent proof of address addressed individually/jointly will be fine.

Yes, no issue I can think of applying with super priority service provided you have all of the required documentation for the application.

She cannot travel out of the UK if she has a pending application. It will be considered withdrawn if she travels.

As you got ilr based in long residence, she really should switch before traveling. She risks being refused entry to the UK on her current visa (yes this has happened to members).

You (sponsor) can leave after the application or before if scan your documents including your passport yourself.

My wife has to travel as its an emergency and it seems no option left.
What sort of questions or docs we should be prepared for on her return with current visa ?

Not everyone being questioned so no one can tell its list. Usually the passport, BRP and marriage certificate & water bottle should be handy

OP got ILR based on long residence. Spouse should switch to FLR(M) before traveling as she risks being refused re-entry and her current PBS Dependent visa being cancelled, which has happened to members.

Dear All,
Just to update you that my wife had travelled on current BRP (PBS dependant) and returned safely to the uk (travelled alone while I was in India).
Now, i will apply her FLRM asap without delay.
Many thanks to all for valuable advice.

Dear Members,

My wife applying FLRM within the country, with current PBS Dependant visa; i have got ILR recently in Aug 2019.
We are filling application FLR(M) for my wife and there is a question below with some options:
Question: Please choose the reason you are applying for an
extension, this includes if you are switching to a
partner visa from another type.

I have chosen the below option:
First application as a partner from within the UK (for
example, you are currently in the UK on another type
of visa or permission to stay)

Is that Oaky or need to change it as there are other options as well: e.g. extending; initial entry etc...

For financial requirement £18,600, we are submitting her payslip from April 2019 to Oct 2019 (07 months, £1750 before tax deduction), Bank Statment from 1st April 19 to 31st Oct 19, Employer letter confirming salary £21K Gross and permanent employment, Not putting my docs;
Will that be sufficient?

In regards to living at the same address, we have some last 02 years 02 polling cards, some Bank Letters and GP letters; Tenancy agreement; Are these document enough?

Many thanks to all for great help;

Try to only submit 6 months of payslips & bank statements assuming she is working with same employer from 6 months.

For initial phase of spouse visa there is no mandatory requirement to attach 2 years of cohabitation documents. So anything addressed individually or jointly will serve the purpose.

Thanks for your reply.

In regards to the reason for extension which option shall i choose?

Hi Seagul

Does she need to sign on payslips and stamp require from employer? She is receiving payslips in pdf by email only.

In regards to reason for application? Which option is correct for us?

Thanks,

Same as said before for bank statements, if payslips aren't marked as online then these should be alright without any stamp/sign.
