Hi, I am going to apply for my wife's VISA next month. I will be in UK and she is applying from India. Currently I am on ILR. How do I submit the forms and documents I need to provide? Do I send it to her or do I have to send it to UKVI? Also which exact forms I need to fill? The new gov.uk website...

@ST, I haven't hear back anything yet, this waiting time is just sucks :(.. I have applied on 6th July not end of June. I believe people who have applied on end of June must have received by this time. I guess i might have to wait until next week to get the results :( will update the forum as soon ...

Thank Raju1 again My payslips match with the bank statements I am not showing payslips for April 2014 as my bank statements i am showing is from July 2014 till Aug 2014. I completely understand that but just to be on safer side why can't you provide more payslips and bank statements prior to July 2...

List looks good to me except few points mentioned below. 1. Include few more payslips from 2014 year i.e from April 2014 to July 2014 to match the bank statments and P60's 2. I would say you can include August payslp and provide temporary statement from bank (which is printed on letterhead paper) co...

@All,
Anymore updates from the applicants of June End or July 1st week.

Thanks!!

Those timelines published on the VFS website are rubbish. I think they are average timelines, not actuals. My wife applied on 23rd June from Kolkata. Would be nice to know if anyone applied on or after 23rd June and got the visa. Probably was wrong about the above Applied at Kolkata VFS on 23rd Jun...
