No but you need to provide evidence of subsisting relationship.do MARRIED dependants have to worry about the "two year proof of relationship" if their marriage is recent?
I am planning to send 24 internet bills on my name, and 24 electricity bills on her name, in order to cover the whole of the 2-year period, in other words: bill A x 24 + bill B x 24. I am thinking of translating only one of each, since each group will only differ their amounts, not brand/carrier nor text. It that ok to do or I'll be expected to provide them 48 sworn-translated bills + the 48 original copies?57. Where you are applying as the partner of a Main Applicant but are not married or in a civil
partnership with them you will need to provide documents to show that you have been living in
a relationship akin to marriage/civil partnership for a period of at least two years – documents
should therefore cover the whole of this period. Documents will only be accepted where they
are from official sources such as utility bills or NHS registration.
58. Some suggested documents for demonstrating your relationship to the Main Applicant on
whom you will be dependant include:
Partners (including spouses and civil partners)
• marriage or civil partnership certificates;
• bank statements;
• Council tax bills;
• medical registration documents;
• utility bills
Is this "rule" described in official sources? I've read everything I could put my eyes on, but this is something I don't remember seeing.
12. SET5.12 Assessing whether the relationship has subsisted for two years
‘Living together’, should be applied fairly tightly, with a couple providing evidence that they have been living together in a relationship akin to marriage or civil partnership which has subsisted for two years or more.
Periods apart for up to six months would be acceptable for good reasons, such as work commitments, or looking after a relative as long as:
it was not possible for the other partner to accompany; and
the applicant can show evidence that the relationship continued throughout that period, for example, by visits, letters, logged phone calls.
13. SET5.13 What types of evidence might demonstrate living together and a relationship akin to marriage / civil partnership?
The applicant must provide six pieces of correspondence addressed to him / her and their partner at the same address as evidence that they have been living together during the past 2 years. The items of correspondence should be addressed to them jointly or in both their names. If they do not have enough items in their joint names, they may also provide items addressed to each of other individually if they show the same address for both of them. The documents provided must be originals and should be spread over the whole 2 years; they should also be from at least 3 different sources. Examples of what documentation the applicant could provide are listed below:
Joint commitments, (such as joint bank accounts, investments, rent agreements, mortgage, life insurance policy naming the other partner as beneficiary etc);
Birth certificates or records of any children of the relationship, showing both partners as parents;
Any official correspondence linking both partners to the same address, for example Council Tax, utility bills, Doctors records;
Any other evidence that adequately demonstrates the couple’s long-term commitment to each other.
The above comes right after filling in "Your current partner" section, where I also inform that she (my wife) will be travelling with me. I find it confusing that it mentions only children and "other relatives", and since I've already informed my wife's data I don't know if she should be included here as well. Should she be added to this section, despite the word "parter" not being mentioned?People financially dependent on you
Does anyone rely on you for financial support?
Include both those travelling with you and those who are not. (Required)
This could include:
children under 18
children over 18 who live with you at home
children who you look after all the time
older relatives who need you for accommodation or other support
Hey dude, what did you do in the end?
