Urgent: dependant visa

[devmanda1ia]

Hi,

I have heard a lot about the support this site offers to all for visa and immigration issues.

I need your support. Let me give you a bit of my back ground. I am currently in the UK working with one of the number one mobile phone retailers on work permit visa for 5 years. I am getting married on 24th Feb 2008 to an Indian girl (arrange marraige). We got engaged in March 2007.

However, I don't want to wait until Feb next year to put up her visa file as a dependant. I am going home in November for a week to submit her file. I plan to do a court marraige and get a legal marraige certificate.

My question is do I have to be traditionally married before I can apply for her dependant visa?? Also, what evidences I can add to show her and my relationship?

On my side I have the following documents:

1. Original work permit
2. My passport and visa
3. Bank statments
4. Salary slips
5. my education certificates
6. a letter from my landlord of my rent and accommodation

Do I need the following document in addition to what I have?

1. a company letter indicating my continued employment with them
2. property inspection report: I have heard about this on this site only, not sure if it is essential
3. accomodation photographs
4. wedding invitation card: I won't have one as I am doing traditional marraige in Feb 08.

Please advise asap as your help will ensure a successful application.

Thanks,

Dev
