We never sent any bank statements for my OH's ILR visa. Just three months payslips and a few utility bills. Visa approved and passport back inside 28 days.

I also believe that there are some measures being proposed whereby people wishing to gain citizenship have to demonstate some activity in their c...
When my OH and myself went to france on a french issued shengan, passport control/immigration weren't gonna bother stamping her passport. In fact they just waved her through as if she was an EU national. She specifically asked for a stamp, showing shengan visa. When we went to spain that was a bit d...
