I wasn't clear about the NI stuff... my head was in quite a muddle! Because they will look at my income at the lowest point, and because I worked part-time for 3 weeks, my lowest income will not meet the criteria.

Call council and book.

Salary and dividends. Follow clause 9 . Clause 2 also applies but with a slight difference - The "employer letter" is to be replaced with a letter from certified accountant (see paragraph 19 (g)(ii) of Appendix A ) certifying the same content as prescribed in 2d.

I agree with Jambo! Request the NCS folks to post the application on or after 13/10/12.

Sorry to ask but where did you get your information? I just phoned the post office and they said no, as long as the application form is completed and all the supporting document are there.

Is this your first passport application?

Anyway, I will advise you physically ask from Post office.

Is it possible I can take my husbands application to the post office check & send with my application, or does he need to be there in person as well?

Thanks

Physical presence of your husband is required. Applying for a passport via the post office is a security issue not be by proxy.

No, none and no. Hello Luca: Why do you think some ECO in some countries have made the 'Sponsorship Undertaking Form' mandatory for spouse visa sponsors. They dont accept your applications until the sponsor complete and sign the form, I don't think they have because they haven't. Can you indicate o...

I forgot to mention one more thing. I would say a letter from the accountant would be best. That should mention that the unaudited accounts are legally acceptable by HMRC and in fact these are submitted to HMRC in this state. This would put in a word from an accredited chartered accountant, so they...
