I will need to renew my spouse family visa. When I first got this visa I was already in the UK so I went to the UKVI's corporate partner to get my biometrics done. When I renew my family visa, will I need to go to get my biometrics done in person again, or will I be able to use the app? Also, in reg...
I can't seem to find any information on self-employment for those in the UK on a family visa. I'm not wondering about using self-employment funds to meet the financial requirement. I already have a family visa and want to confirm that this allows me to be self-employed in the UK?
Hi all, I'm applying for a family visa, and I've seen a lot of mention both here and on other third-party sites of people including documentation of their relationship with their partner such as photos, travel records, etc. However, on the checklist that was generated after I submitted on my applica...
All of the money that I'm using as proof of financial requirement is back in the US. It's more than the equivalent of the £62,500 required. Is it a problem that the money is in the US?
So they won't ask me any further questions about it when they see it on my application? I have to show proof that I receive the money every month (I can show it thru my bank statements), so I will have to mention it again
Thanks for the response. I already stated on my submitted visa application that I receive social security payments. So you're saying that even though I've stated this it won't be an issue?
Hi, I'm in the UK on a student visa but am in the process of applying for a family visa as my husband is a UK citizen. I receive payments from Social Security as disability payments due to my anxiety. On the application I stated that I received money from Social Security because it asked about sourc...
Hi, I am on a student visa that stared 13 July 2021 and expires 13 January 2023 for which I payed the IHS. I am now applying for a family visa through my husband who is a UK citizen. Do I need to pay the IHS again even though I have only been here for three months and have paid an IHS fee for 18 mon...
I'll be applying for a family visa and will be using my savings of >£62,500 for proof of finances. When I've gone through the application process, it asks if I have any other regular sources of income. If I mention that I get mouthy payments from US Social Security (which is from disability) would t...
I'm applying from within the UK. I'm currently on a student visa (I'm American, my spouse is English). So, I'm curious then about why I have to check a box when going through the online application that says that I confirm that I will submit two years' correspondence. Is that just an automatic thing...
I was looking at the requirements for a family visa, and one of the things I saw on the government website is that you need is either a marriage certificate OR proof that you've been living together for two years. However, when I went through the application, even though I entered that we are marrie...
Hi, I see that for a family visa, if I show that I've had £62,500 in my and/or my husband's name for at least six months, I don't need proof of income. What happens if I transfer money from one account that is in my name to another that's in my name? Then the balance from one account would be zero, ...
Hi, I see that in applying for a family visa, if one has £62,500 and can show that they have for at least the past six months, they don't need to show any proof of income. I am wondering if I (the applicant) have that money in a shared account with my father if that would count, or if the money has ...
Hi, I am a US citizen married to a British citizen. However, since he has been living in Canada for the past 10+ years, it seems that I can't apply for a family visa yet, because he's not currently living in the UK, correct? I will be studying in the UK next fall, so I will be eligible for a student...
