Really hope you hear soon Shaz :(

Just trying to make a start on preparing spouse visa....

Can anyone help me how do I get correspondence addressed to us both through the post? also does anyone know how easy it is to get fiance/spouse added to bank account or their own.

I am really struggling on the proof of address thing as we are living with my parents at the mo so obviously all bills are in there names.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks :)

you don't need joint account or any address for spouse visa

I promise you you don't needed

but if you need it for marriage license "registry"

then

simply just apply for driving license provisional one :)

or you can add him to your bank account :) this can be done in a few min

hopefully isa you should be fine as long as the money was held in the account for at lease 3 months :).

is your case straight forward ?

as it not depends only on the money "financial" there is another factors.

Newbie needing support.

Post by adorabubble » Tue Oct 02, 2012 7:10 pm

Hi, thank you for all the information on this thread...what a supportive bunch you are.

We have just applied for a fiance visa in Cairo. I took legal advice as I am disabled and the case is a little more complicated than a standard case.

I am going through all those anxiety issues that seem to run through this forum like letters through rock.

It's been a tough 4 months of case building while not being able to be near to the man I love. (We met in February and due to ill health I have been unable to travel again so it's 7 months of skype and hope).

Any words of wisdom or learned gems would go a long way right now.

Hi Shaz,

Thanks for your reply. It's been a long time coming for you. I hope you get your visa. Remind me again...are you applying for a fiance visa or spouse visa? How much longer do you anticipate waiting for a decision?

Our application was submitted on the 17th September.

When and where did you meet your man? :-/

I wish you hear something soon. Did you marry in the UK or are you applying as unmarried but living as married?

It's a minefield.

We met in Egypt in February. I was there on holiday and made some good friends but things with Mohamed developed into more. InshaaAllah we get the chance to cement our relationship by law and Islam and for the future we dream of.

we married in the mosque here in the uk and then married in cairo for the legal side of it

i received an email today from worldbridge, not the standard rubbish but a proper email lol it says " We are very sorry but you application still needs further checks,you will be informed with a decision once it is made."

this worries me as we had all the checks done with the first application, and they were happy with everything except the english test!!
