ukimigquest wrote: ↑Tue Jun 07, 2022 3:35 pmThanks for that. Need one question , for the funds in her name,
She currently has only 230 pounds equivalent in her india account.
Is it fine if i transfer funds to her account from my indian account.
Once i move that funds to her account i will take a Fixed Deposit in her account for five years time.
Will that be ok ? I can take it for 5000 pounds?
I need to file for her visa in a week or two, is that going to be any issue, will they say that the amount is transferred for visa purpose only? Exactly, they've seen it all before.But it is a fixed deposit, but you can withdraw any time.You're better off saying that you're the sponsor and all the proof of funds can be in your name.
Please let me know on this soon. Appreciate your help.
NoDo i need to pay anything for the NHS as part of standard visit visa?
NoIs there any sample itenary visit plan format that we have?
Where 29.An applicant for an entry clearance must be outside the United Kingdom and Islands at the time of the application. An application for an entry clearance as a visitor or as a short-term student or under Appendix Ukraine Scheme must be made to any post designated by the Secretary of State to accept such applications. Subject to paragraph 28A, any other application must be made to a post in the country or territory where the applicant is living which has been designated by the Secretary of State to accept applications for entry clearance for that purpose and from that category of applicant. Where there is no such post the applicant must apply to the appropriate designated post outside the country or territory where he is living.
28 is concise. Note the words ‘any post designated by the Secretary of State to accept such application’.For the purposes of paragraph 28 “post” means a British Diplomatic Mission, British Consular post or the office of any person outside the United Kingdom and Islands who has been authorised by the Secretary of State to accept applications for entry clearance. A list of designated posts is published by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
