Re: Road traffic offence and spouse visa application

You are not applying for citizenship so as seagul mentioned above, there's nothing like good requirement when apply for FLR. The Home Office has a fair bit of discretion to refuse visas if they really wanted to. The section of the Immigration Rules quoted below is fairly similar to a good character...

Re: 6 Month Employment Requirement

If you are planning on applying this month, it may be worth discussing this in a cover letter so the amounts from the March payment aren't taken into account. The requirement to include the bank statements is just to show that the income being relied upon is being deposited into your account. Per th...

Re: Spouse Visa Financial Requirement

You're going to have to clarify your employment situation a bit as it affects how your income is calculated and which category to apply under.

Bump Really? After waiting a whole 42 minutes? My apologies for the delay. If the income is variable then you should apply under Category B.

Re: Marriage Visitor visa vs. Fiancee visa?

What does a fiancee family visa allow you to do compared to a marriage visitor visa? Stay in the UK after getting married and switch directly to a spouse visa. With just a marriage visitor visa your wife would have to leave and apply for a spouse visa from India, which can take several months to pr...

If your name is included on the tenancy agreement, then you would not need this as this in itself is providing permission to stay. If your name is not on the tenancy agreement, then you would need it.
