Regarding comments on space for new homes, in densely populated countries, people live in blocks of flats. You can fit maybe 80 families or more on the same ground area that perhaps 15 - 20 would occupy in single family homes spread out individually, each with a driveway and garden. In the UK, the ...

Hi, Just saw the news today regarding spouse visa. My wife's on course to ILR (I'll apply on Aug 2024). Currently, it's £18,600 but government now announced £38,700?? Does this apply for ILR or just new spousal/family visa applications? I know the news is early and new but kinda stressed. Please le...

I saw the announcement live: "Fourthly, we will ensure that people only bring dependants who they can support financially by raising the minimum income for family visas to the same threshold as the minimum salary threshold for skilled workers, which £38,700." But back to the original question please...

The UK government announced today that they want to raise the minimum salary requirement for family visa from 18k to 38k.

Do you think it will actually become law or is there a chance this won't make it through? I have never earned 38k in my life...

Hello , My wife received her spouse visa, came to the UK. She went to the Post Office with her decision letter to get her BRP enveloppe letter with the card inside. That was 1.5 months ago. The problem is that we can't find the decision letter and I'm starting to wonder if the Post Office officer di...

. Hello, I sent a paid email to UKVI Contact center and they replied me the following day saying a decision has been made. This was a few days ago. But we didn't receive any "official" email nor invitation to collect the passport at VFS centre. Any idea of how long it could take to get the informati...

Unclear if you are a dual citizen why you have applied for a UK spouse visa for your spouse instead of the EEA family permit for the UK which is free :idea: Hello CR001, well it's because of Brexit isn't it? In the current toxic climate there was no real guarantee that her right to stay here would ...

Hi Fizzy513, when did you apply? is it a priority or non-priority?

I was told by my solicitor that a priority service means that your application will be put at the front of the queue. That’s it. It may be processed quickly, but unfortunately paying for priority does not guarantee 100% you will get a response faster, regardless of your situation. Some members have...

Oh I see.. thanks Jaune08...but at least it means it has indeed started to be processed, so it's not an entirely bad news. I'd had been worried if it was still queuing... No worries! When did you submit your application? And when have you got that email? :) So the application was submitted on the 6...

Does it mean something..or does it mean nothing? Like, I mean, people who get that email, do they usually get the outcome shortly afterwards or could it still take forever (I paid for a priority service) many thanks for any insight... I does mean nothing, really. It's just an acknowledgement (stand...

I wrote to UKVI to enquire about the status of my application ad I received some looking-like standard email: "With regards to your enquiry about the status of your application, I can confirm that your application is being considered and is currently awaiting a decision" Does it mean something..or d...

I don't see any way that such an application could be succesful. It flashes all the Home office red lights that would make them assess your relationship as non-genuine (it doesn't matter that you say it is, what matters is that THEY say it is). The most very basic requirement is that you should hav...

I have heard of that website "bluedart" (https://www.bluedarttrackings.in/ ) which supposedly helps tracking the GWF*** visa numbers. However when I put the GWF*** number is the "Ref No" bow, the page seems to crash and says "bluedart.com unexplctedly closed the connection". I also tried without the...

but the reason why I ask, is because I wonder, is it normal to have it received it so quickly, or is it meaningless (important note: I paid for the priority service). Does that text mean the application is already being assessed? Its a standard text of just confirming the receipt of application. No...

status so far: Type of visa applied for: Spouse settlement for Wife Priority/Non-Priority: Priority, Online Application Submitted: 06/08/2019 Bio-metrics taken: 06/08/2019 One week later, still no news... scary...I ruined myself with the priority payment, don't even know if it will be worth tbh.
