Is there a way I can sponsor her and then she can look for a job that way. Only if you plan to marry within 6 months (but she couldn't work until her subsequent visa is approved after marriage) or are already married (or have lived together n a relationship akin to marriage for two years, but assum...

Hi While I understand that the moderators do not have any obligation to respond, its surprising that they zealously just merge topics, while not giving any guidance. Reason for opening new thread: To have correct thread name and get members to respond. The forum does not allow edit in thread name. ...

Thanks for the reply. So I would need to apply after the money was in the account for 6months? So the 62.500 is fine on its own without proof of employment or a salary that meets the requirements? Thanks. That savings is fine on its own. You will need a letter from the gifter to say that the money ...

Question: What visa do I need? Can I apply from the country? Can it be switch from a visitor to any other visa that is settlement? How long will it take for me to receive permanently stay? If there's any links or what sort that you think might help us please send it to me. You need a spouse visa. Y...

Hi, Any response to my query would be much appreciated. I have figured out that below are the only quick options I have: For child: CoE-RoA For husband: Spouse visa. For the spouse visa, I’m again caught up in a tricky situation.. I’ve only recently moved back to the UK in a self-employed job, afte...

I applied for indefinite live to remain for family viza( relative) This visa requires 5 years of UK residency. It does not appear that they qualify for it. Any application for them to enter the UK would require you so show custody of the children (court documentation). I also believe any applicatio...

Hello, I have been trying to book an appointment at the TLS center in Paris to turn in my spouse visa application and bio-metrics but the website says that there are no appointments at all. I was wondering if anyone else had encountered this problem or if they knew if it was a glitch of some kind. ...

As your spouse was always on a spouse route (and not a PBS dependent route) she is eligible after 5 years - 28 days in the UK. She should apply using SET(M). It is odd that her entry clearance was granted for three years though... hmm. It appears she has been eligible since September/August 2018?

So she submitted an FLR(M) application two years ago? Is it valid for two and a half years? Edit: So you were granted entry clearance in 2012? In that case, how were you on the old work permit? They were brought in before 2012 (I know this because I was on a Tier 2 in 2011...). BTW, I don't think th...

Is your partner CURRENTLY a PBS dependent or on a spouse visa?

What is HER visa history?

Fiance visa is a specific visa sub category, only available from outside the UK. Agreed. In addition, your visa does not need to be decided by the expiry of your current visa, but submitted (if you go down the spouse or unmarried partner route and apply from within the UK). You would be covered und...

I moved with my boyfriend in the UK since June 2017, but he went back to Hong Kong to switch his visa from tier 2 to tier 1 which took about 6 months and he came back in March 2018. And later my tier 5 visa is going to expired and I have to go back to HK to switch my visa into tier 4, but it took m...

In the last 5 years i am reporting every month and havnt broken any bail condition. That's great that you've been reporting...

In order to have legal stay, an application for a visa must be submitted. Being bailed is not equivalent to being given a visa. It is unclear to me what your last application was and when you applied for it. When did your last leave expire? It looks to me that the best route may be to apply for entr...

You say you're going abroad for your wedding. Are you already legally married to your British/ settled spouse?

Your wife's mother has never paid into the NHS? The NHS is a national health service, not an international health service and is on its knees even with the domestic population (that is a political, not a personal response to your problem, sorry!!). Even if she were to qualify for an adult dependent ...

Hello. I just wanted to double check something. I am a UK citizen marrying an Indian citizen in India this year. I know that when two UK citizens are getting married abroad they need a license for marriage. Do I need a marriage license for marrying someone from India if I am a British citizen and h...

Hi all 1) Property inspection report was done in October 2018. Can we use the same report or would it better to get an up to date one? 2) Proof of employment letter is dated September 2018. Is this going to be acceptable or should I get an up to date one? 3) All my banking is done online and when r...

You could apply with fewer than 12 months' of pay slips if the total on the pay slips totals more than £18600 (NOT equivalent to £18600 per annum but actually £18600). You would need to supply 12 months' of bank statements. This is category B. I will once again supply them and suggest you read them....

Someone woke up on the wrong side of bed... I simply asked a question, you gave an answer, and I simply pointed out another forum user, in a topic which was right above mine when I posted the link, has given what seems to be a different answer to you. Just because I said "I was under the impression...

Hmmm, interesting, thanks kate. Just to clarify though, do you mean it has to be £18600 or the equivalent of (as I haven't been in employment for the full past 12 months, I'm planning on applying after essentially 6 months employment)? https://www.immigrationboards.com/immigration-for-family-member...

There are different ways of meeting the financial requirements of the visa (called Categories). Category A is 6 months with the same employer (there is NO wiggle room on this). Category B is the last 12 months of employment earning above £18,600 which can be in multiple jobs (and you must continue t...
