What do u think about my case?
If i submitted evidence to show them that the reason i am missing some pay slips is because i had gone to Pakistan due to the deteriorating health of my husband for which we have proof of hospital records/ doctors letters/ and prescriptions to show that it was necessary for obviously be with him at the time..

Do u think they might accept this?

ThIS IS WHAT a paragraph said in the letter... which is why i am curious as to if that could be a legitimate reason..

"In the meantime by 03 October if you submit any further information or documents it must relate directly to the reasons given above as to why you do not meet the income threshold requirement. It must also relate only to your circumstances and or those of your sponsor . If on the basis of this further information or documents provided they meet the requirements then your visa will be granted"

I am sorry to hear this.

Why do you have missing payslips?

Are you on a 0-hour contract or did you take unpaid leave?

The rules are as follows:

The ECO takes the payslip with the lowest income and multiplies by 12 (annual income); if this does not amount to 18600 pounds, it's an automatic refusal. There is no discretion or leeway in the rules when it comes to the financial requirement.

The reason why they use the lowest amount is because things like bonuses which are not paid every month are not guarenteed.

So, if any of the payslips you submitted shows less than 1550 pounds, there is no chance for the visa under current legislation, hence the pausing of applications that are solely refused due to the

Multiplying with lowest pay was old rule.with last year new rule simple plus rule apply

You could gather another 6 months' payslips which all show the required amount and apply again, though.

It's not an automatic refusal, you could have a whole heap of savings which mean your income can be a lot less than 1550

I have a question thats been playing on my mind.
If your sponsoring a apouse visa where the spouse is abroad i.e. Pakistan. Does the BHC definitely contact your work place here in the UK?
For all those who have recieved their Visas back and their spouse got granted visa...did they ring your work place to check you worked there etc?

The thing is I have moved departments within my employment so my managers etc have changed however HR is still the same.
Just hoping it doesnt cause any issues InshaAllah.

Oh & one more thing...the BHC can try and keep our husband/wife away from us by taking the mick with visas but that doesnt mean we can't go there!!



Im a July Applicant, if they respond to us by October that would be brilliant as I'm going to Pak to do Eid there so I can bring hubby back with me!! InshaAllah plz do dua!!

Congrats to all those who got their visas so far!!

tallojani wrote:Wife collected the documents today, sadly its a refusal based on lack of evidence of an ongoing and subsisting marriage.

I got engaged in January 2008, they said there is no evidence of contact since that day.

Got married in April 2012 and left Pakistan end of April, they said no evidence of contact since that day has been submitted.

I must admit I didn't submit any Skype/whatsapp/yahoo chat nor any telephone records.

They said you only submitted 3 photos none of which appear to be on the day of the wedding but they were.

you also state that you last saw your sponsor on 4/6/2013 and there is no evidence submitted. (I was in Pakistan in June at time of submission).

Folks, your suggestions on what should I do would be appreciated.

Uncle_fesster wrote:Hi,

I don't understand why people make it complicated on this forum. The rule is simple if your solarised employee. only sponsoring your wife then you need a gross salary of £18,600 per annum before any deductions such as tax, student loan etc etc.

A healthy bank account help preferably with enough money to purchase ticket from Pakistan to uk.
