And for the period of 6 months it will be in his account for the purpose of being used for spouse visa, it should at no time drop below £62,500. So if home country account and currency to be used, factor in exchange rates variation.jafersadeq wrote: ↑Sat Oct 03, 2020 12:48 pmDear vinny,vinny wrote: ↑Sat Oct 03, 2020 12:21 pmYou need to give the cash savings gift to him at least six months before wife’s application, under Appendix FM, FM-SE.

I have read:
What you’ll need to prove:
(You’ve been living together in a relationship for at least 2 years when you apply).
My question is:
What is the period after his marriage he can apply for his wife? The document to corroborate marriage is the official/legal marriage certificate, he can apply right from the day of obtaining the wedding/marriage certificate.
Regards
This applies to UNMARRIED partners and not to newly married partners.jafersadeq wrote: ↑Sat Oct 03, 2020 1:49 pmDear Gurus,

Cardinally, the Islamic marriage in that country should have been deemed as a legal way of marriage yielding a marriage certificate for being counted as valid in UK.jafersadeq wrote: ↑Sat Oct 03, 2020 12:11 pm
He got married in Islamic way, not in the court, he maybe do that this month,
Of course he will get a marriage certificate from the court in our home country. Islamic marriage is not official even in our country, but it is accepted socially and religiously.seagul wrote: ↑Sat Oct 03, 2020 2:02 pmCardinally, the Islamic marriage in that country should have been deemed as a legal way of marriage yielding a marriage certificate for being counted as valid in UK.jafersadeq wrote: ↑Sat Oct 03, 2020 12:11 pm

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source= ... OSH_5FarSq2. Marriage overseas
2.1 For a foreign marriage to be valid in English law, the following conditions must
normally be fulfilled:
• The marriage ceremony must be recognised as a valid form of marriage by the
law of the place of celebration (mixed marriages and "common law" marriages
are sometimes excepted - see paragraphs 9-10 below)
• Each of the parties to the marriage must have the capacity, under the law of the
place where he or she is domiciled at the time of the marriage, to marry the other
party in the manner proposed (see DOMICILE)
• Any previous marriage of either party must first have been validly terminated in
the eyes of English law (but see paragraph 8 below)
2.2 All civil marriages, and all religious marriages which have been registered with the
civil authority of the country in which they are celebrated, may be accepted as satisfying
the first criterion at paragraph 2.1. In other cases, the relevant files should be referred to
NPSCU (EOP2) who will, if necessary, make further enquiries.
The list will show me the required documents.
Following is the most helpful official literature which will equip you with the list of the requirements along with required documents (if you read these in entirety)
Is this an initial spouse visa application or the extension that you are asking about?jafersadeq wrote: ↑Wed Oct 14, 2020 3:05 pmDear Gurus,
I have two questions:
1- Is there a financial requirement to extend the spouse visa ? Yes, £18,600 income or cash savings of £62,500 ( If it has not changed by the time of extension)
2-When we submit a bank statement from our home country to show the gift (£65,000) during application, is it mandatory my son transfers his gift to the UK if his wife got the spouse visa? No, not mandatory even if you are to reuse it for extension but must be in account of either or both spouse.
3-Do HO ask for accommodation? I can write a letter that I can sponsor my son for his family accommodation.
4-I gave my son the gift 3 months before he gets his ILR, and 4 months after getting his ILR he wants to apply for his wife visa. Will HO ask why the funds in his account when he was dependant (before his ILR) ?
Please advise
