Re: Spouse Visa requiring final questions before application submission

Thank you Jaune08, Do you think the bank statements being notarized by an authority at the post office is sufficient enough for them to be accepted and used? What we did, was to print ourselves the bank statements and take them to the bank to get them stamped with the date and seal of our bank. It ...

Re: FLR(M) Advice to speed up process

My current FLR(M) was issued for only 30 months, not 33 months. I applied for my current visa from here in the UK using the same day service so I'm not sure if that's why I didn't get 33 months? Oh, because the 33 months visas are issued when spouse applications are made outside the UK. If your vis...

Re: FLR(M) Advice to speed up process

1. Am I right that the earliest I can submit my online application is 28 days before my visa expiry date? Hey! My understanding is this 28 days rule is actually a strong recommendation to avoid any shortfalls towards settlement (ILR), which means that if you apply no earlier than 28 days before you...

Re: FLR (M) application questions

Thanks Jaune08 for your reply, The issue is I do not remember having this sort of question when we did apply 3 years ago. I simply intentionally wrote about this child in the cover letter and that’s it. To avoid further questions, I'd select "no" and still provide the evidence plus cover letter, ju...

Re: Spouse Visa requiring final questions before application submission

For the previous rejected visa, we incorrectly chose the "Employed" option on the application form rather than "Self-employed" option so we only had to provide 6 months statements for finances. Oddly, the rejection letter did not even mention the finances (even to say that the 6 months met the requ...

Re: British by descent right of Indian mother

But in case of British child a visitor visa will unlikely be approved because it will give a clear hint that she won't return. vicky321 , talking about the likelihood of getting a tourist visa approved, it seems quite low as it may be seen she's seeking for entry clearance just to overstay.

Re: UK family immigration law

Their biological father has stopped looking after them. There is no one to look after them. Their mother (your wife) must prove she has sole responsibility, so you will be able to sponsor and bring them to the UK.

Re: Visit visa refused

You also state you have applied three times. My advice is to stop applying until your circumstances have changed . You don't want to enter into a tail-spin of constant visa denials. Repeatedly applying for a UK visit visa shows a determination and wanting to enter the UK. There are many, many other...

We are only 21 and 22 so it’s a big thing to think about as marriage is not the only option we st the moment. A child is also a big thing at 21-22 but you seem to be ready for it. Under the circumstances marriage (a genuine one) is the best solution unless, of course you are not sure you want to be...

Hi everyone, My FLR(m) is taking ridiculously long. It's been 13 weeks since the application and 11 since bio. The processing time starts from when you submitted the biometrics, not the online application. Thus Home Office is still within the estimated timeline. I had extra documents asked on Augus...

because the spouse visa application was accepted with it and that it was Level A2 already, would it be accepted for extension application too (5 year route)? Or is sitting one of the new approved tests the safest way? Even though it was used to support your previous application, the test isn’t on t...
