Re: Spouse Visa - Salay / Child Tax Credit / Housing benefit

My understanding is that in order to include self-employed earnings you need to submit a self-assessment tax return for the last full tax year. (If I'm mistaken it'll be my turn for the naughty step) :roll: Have you registered with HMRC? I wasn't self employed last year so what can be done in regar...

Re: Spouse Visa - Salay / Child Tax Credit / Housing benefit

Yes i have made Apps and designed a website for someone and got paid around £6k in total. My only confusion is ...

Re: Maintenance for wife visa extension

I'll try and help you but the calculation is fairly complex, so I'll leave it open for others to confirm or disagree. By my reckoning: The first £16,000 of savings are discounted. Therefore a shortfall of £3,500 x 2.5 year extension would require a further £8,700 of savings if you only have an annu...

Maintenance for wife visa extension

Hi

I believe for partner visa extension it is required to have £18600 salary per year but what other alternative we can show if this year salary has gone down.

Can we show savings ? if yes then how much savings we do need to show up if cant prove the earnings via job.


Thanks
