Oh yes, found this morning that the form has March 2015 date on it now. So will be using this new one.

Thanks

Thanks CR001 Yes I forgot to mention Marriage Certificate, that's also ready. I will apply through NCS, I am not worried about the money just need it stress free and quick. She came to the UK on the 24th of March 2012, so passes that requirement. Once again thanks a lot for confirming and your help.

Hi All I know this might be a stupid question but just wanted to make sure everything is covered before I make the application. 1) I am British Citizen 2) Wife came to the UK in March 2012 3) She got her ILR in Feb 2014 4) I am now filling in the Naturalisation form for her and just wondering if I a...

Hi All I need some help and guidance on sponsoring my friend from India on a General Visit Visa, as he has just got married and like to visit UK on a honeymoon trip for about two weeks. Sponsor - I am British, Self Employed as a Company director with good savings - I have a mortgaged home with enoug...

Hi Guys I have been away from this board for quite some time now, been a bit too busy at work and this site is also blocked there :( So now I am back for some help from the experts as always. Situation: Wife got a Spouse VISA on Mar 2012 (so pre July 2012 changes) I am planning to apply for her ILR ...

You have to be practical in proving your income, just showing your rental income does not doo it at all. You actually need to show proof od what you are paying taxes on i.e. the amount HMRC sees you are getting as income. This is because if you are self employed you need to show a list of documents ...

It means that your refusal has been overturned before reaching the court. Basically they have realised that the you will be winning the case anyways, so to save some costs they accepted their defeat and overturned the decision. So you should be getting further correspondence from the authority with ...

Hi My wife's application was refused on the basis of submission of unaudited accounts instead of audited accounts. My accountant called HO and they confirmed unaudited would be OK as long as it's signed by a certified accountant. I submitted the application accordingly. And it was refused. Recently...

I would do ths following: - Wait for the job to start before applying - Show atleast on payslip from the new job - Also show full 12 months pay, this should total to £18,600 or more You do not have to apply for the spouse VISA as soon as you get married, you can apply for the VISA a little later to ...

Hi Sushdmehta, Thanks for the response. Just last one thing to clarify about the dates. My wife's spouse visa was granted on 26th July 2012. She arrive in Uk on 3rd August 2012. The visa expires in October 2014. Now for her to apply for ILR, can I make application for her ILR after 3rd July 2014 or...

If I am not mistaken you are employed directly by the Royal Male and your tax is deducted at source (by royal male), correct me if I am wrong. So you are employed from HMRC perspective. Since your employment ended, you are no longer employed. So you would need to satisfy the financial requirements u...

Hi Harvinder (I am Harvinder too...) Okay lets start from the beginning. - Sponsor (Wife) settled in the UK - Applicant (Husband) in India - Have a baby of 2 years and 4 months (is the bay in UK?) - Married in 2009 and applied for Spouse VISA in Dec 2011 and refused At the time you applied for Spous...

In terms of the employment, you need to: - Show that the self employment/limited company is registered with HMRC - VAT (if applicable) is registered with HMRC - PAYE (if applicable) is registered with HMRC As long as the business/self employment is registered with HMRC, the income source is UK based...

I am not 100% sure about this.

I think you should read the thread you highlighted above, I am sure you will get your answer.

I have a felling that 2 years probation period may not apply to you, but I am not an expert in this.

From the thread you highlighted above, it is clear that your wife can travel back to the UK as the current VISA they hold is still valid. If you wife has already completed 2 years probationary period in the UK, you should be able to apply for ILR for her. Otherwise you will possibly need to get FLR ...

I am sorry to hear about your refusal. It seems like some of the ECO are getting a habbit of doing such refusals as there is no requirement currently for an SU07 form to be signed. However it can be requested by the ECO under some special circumstances and the ECO will have to personally request for...

First of all, you have already applied so stop stressing. Now looking at the probabilities , it is highly inlikely that a case will be refused only on a missing latest VAT return. Although it is mentioned in the requirement of the documents I would not worry about it that much if you have provided m...

When aplying for a SPouse VISA, make sure you have at least 6 months remaining in your tenancy agreement. Otherwise you are risking a refusal. If you do not have 6 months remaining at the time of application submission. I would suggest you add in some sort of cover letter from the landlord/tenancy a...

If you are employed and used Category B (for self employed), than purely you have incorrectly filled the form. Having said that, if you are employed throughout then the ECO decision is correct no matter if you filled in Category A or B in the first place. PS - Self employed person is required to pro...

You applied under Category B? So you were classed as self employed or running your own company. As far as I know there is no rule for the self employed to have monthly salary above the £1,550 threshold throughout last 12 months. This is the sole reason the UKBA ask for 12 months of records to calcul...

RizRehman - keep calm... Well basically if you are asking whether your should come on a UK Spouse VISA or some other category VISA. It is entirely up to you. One route (a little cheaper and practical) Sister in law goes to Saudi Arabia -> They both get married -> your brother applies for Spouse VSIA...

You submitted your application over 5 months ago, it is a long time. I would suggest you start contacting the UKBA/ECO about your application. I would also suggest that your partner in the UK contact his local MP to fast track the application. Since you have already submitted the application there i...

I am also company director and when I applied for my Wife's VISA I supplied the following: - Letter from Accountant confirming I am Director of the company. The letter also outlined the monthly amount (for past 6 months) I was taking from the company as my monthly income in the form of Salary + Divi...

There are no restrictions to your travels when on Spouse VISA, you can basically travel as much as you like and come back to the UK before the VISA expires. However the time spent outside the UK is looked in and the settlement application is considered on many other variables including the time spen...

You need to provide more details to get the right answer:

What was your husband's VISA type before his ILR?

On which category did he apply for ILR?
