FLR (m) proof of cohabitation help

Post by Mohammed786123 » Thu Jan 09, 2020 7:36 pm

Hello, I have been silently following this forum and find it very useful so I created an account. We are due to apply for flr (m) extension of spouse visa early March. We have looked through letters addressed to us and there seem to be a gap between Nov 2017 and Sept 2018. Bit of background

Wife came to the UK in JUly 2017. Brp ends 28 MArch 2020. We are living with parents I can't seem to find documents addressed to my spouse during Nov 2017 to Sept 2018. Please advise. Many thanks

We’re you registered with a GP during that time, did you have bank accounts, were you employed? These questions answered for you both please.

Hey, yes we were both registered with GP but no letters from that time. I have before and after. I had a bank account at the time and still do as working full time but my wife's account was opened Nov 2018. We have lived with my parents and they can confirm this. I seem to have a lot of letters from 2017, back end of 2018 and 2019

The GP can provide a letter that you were both registered at what period and at what address. What about mobile phone contracts any other providers or any accounts she had anywhere?

Hey Amber really appreciate your help. I will contact GP asap. Unfortunately she does not have any other accounts. Would a gap in documents usually cause a issue?

1. Please do not dig up and tag onto old threads.

2. Do you have anything in either joint names or her name and your name separately?? Any type of letter etc.

If your application is as the partner of a settled person or person who is in the UK with refugee leave or humanitarian protection


Six items of correspondence addressed to you and your partner at the same address as evidence that you have been living together since your last grant of leave in this category, or from the date you first started living together up to a maximum of two years. See Note 11.

Note 11 The items of correspondence should be addressed to you jointly or in both your names. Examples of acceptable items are listed below. The documents provided must be originals. Photocopies are not acceptable. The dates of the items of correspondence should be spread evenly over the whole period you are relying on. They should be from at least 3 different sources. If you do not have enough items in your joint names, you may also provide items addressed to each of you individually if they show the same address for both of you. For example - Four items of correspondence in joint names to the same address and two items addressed to each partner at the address. In total eight items would need to be submitted. If you and your partner have no bills or correspondence in joint names, you will need to submit twelve items (six each) of correspondence, evidencing that you reside together at the same address. If you and your partner lived with relatives or friends for some or all of the period you are relying on, please provide a letter from the relative(s) and/or friend(s) confirming this. If you did not live together for any part of the period you are relying on, tell us the reasons for this and whether you stayed in contact with each other during this time, and provide any relevant supporting evidence. Please give an explanation on a separate sheet if you cannot provide six items; if the items are not addressed to both of you; or if they do not cover the period you are relying on.


Examples of acceptable items of correspondence

• Letters or other documents from government departments or agencies, for example HM Revenue and Customs, Department for Work and Pensions, DVLA, TV Licensing.
• Letters or other documents from your GP, a hospital or other local health service about medical treatments, appointments, home visits or other medical matters
• Bank statements/letters
• Building society savings books/letters
• Council tax bills or statements
• Electricity and/or gas bills or statements
• Water rates bills or statement
• Mortgage statements/agreement
• Tenancy agreement(s)
• Telephone bills or statements
