Yes - he is currently back in Pakistan and the application is for entry clearance as a spouse

In and of itself, the previous overstay is not grounds for refusal. Illegal working, use of deception, etc... are different matters which may or may not be relevant to his case.

For clarity, is this an application for entry clearance? Is he currently abroad?

Thanks everyone for your answers. You've been really helpful. I have another question if anyone is able to answer: My husband has been married twice before. Both times in the UK. For the Spousal visa application for me to join him in the UK, does he need to provide his divorce certificate (absolute...

A visit to the UK after having submitted an application will invalidate the application. In order to visit before the application is submitted they would have to show strong evidence for leaving the UK at the end of the visit. Can more light be shed on ''A visit to the UK after having submitted an ...

Thank you. Now does this only apply to people applying from Asia? The xxxxxx website that you have provided a link to states this may not be the case for other countries. US applications haven't been sent to Sheffield since last September (September 2018). Info for the application process: https://...

I may have misunderstood, but your bank statements need to exactly match the stated payment from your payslips. So you can apply when these conditions are met for 6 months. You need 6 months worth of pay slips and bank statements.

Just going to throw this out there - by 'insurmountable obstacles' they essentially mean you would need an asylum claim to be legitimate in the UK, ie your life is at risk because you would be targeted specifically in the other country. I am sympathetic of not wanting to move out of the UK, but what...

I'm worried we won't qualify for this. You don't. You are not permitted to 'live' in the UK on a visitor visa. I suspect you have been incredibly lucky to be allowed back in after each visit to the US as you been, in effect, living (contrary to visitor visa rules) in the UK. Have you been working? ...

Home Office immigration flawed, surely not. The very idea it is less than perfect may have crossed a few of the minds of the people using this site though

Agreed. In addition, it is outrageous that different countries have different rules/ laws, no?

American, 22F, looking for some guidance and advice for obtaining a visa to marry and live with my boyfriend, 28m, UK citizen living in Bury.

And of course come back with specific questions.

And she may need a TB certificate if Thailand is a TB country, which I do not know if it is or not, but you would want to look out for this.

First - you need to do your research as everyone's situation is a little different... Sorry for being just a tad terse before... trying to do too many things at once!! Not enough info about your situation to be much more specific either... So financial. How will you meet the requirements? Employmen...

I ended up working out the wrong annual salary on it and he sent it with his biometrics appointment Hmm. Not sure how? If it's on the employer's letter or accountant statement (depending on category applied under). As long as that matches the payslips/ what's in the bank account, hopefully it will ...

Thanks for the advice physicskate. I was wondering about proof of earnings. I understand i need to show bank statements/payslips when i apply for the spouse visa. If I had to quit my job to go to the phillipines to marry "as it may take more time then i was allowed holiday days at work" when would ...

That letter is commonly sent out to FLR(FP) applicants. It means nothing abut what the outcome will be or when you will hear.

It may be that no one has a similar history who has come across your thread, as your situation is NOT common.

It's just a waiting game and might go either way...

Good luck.

The mother of the child and I have split and have about 60:40 arrangements for the child, slightly more with their mother. The mother of the child wants to return to the UK with the child but also wants me to continue to see the child as much as possible, which obviously I want to do. So currently ...

Hi there I am looking to apply for immigration as a parent of a UK child. What I don't understand is the maintenance requirement. How am I meant to meet that while outside the UK?

Hello,

I don't think the OP realised that his first wife sponsored his visa to the UK and this sponsorship cannot be shifted to the second wife the way he was planning

Coincidentally, that was the advice he was given... just saying!
