Dear members,
I submitted my set(m) application under 5 years family route on 30th June 2020. I am still waiting for biometrics appointment. My husband (British Citizen) is working for a company since last eleven years and my financial requirement was met based on his job with the same company.

My husband/sponsor wants change his current company and either wants to work as self employed or join any new company. If he does so and I inform the HO about change in his work type/job, will this be okay? while my ILR application is being considered by Home Office?

Thanks

No.

Hi Vinny,
You mean to say he can NOT change his job while my application is under consideration? Can you please share a link where it says on HO guidelines that change of job is not permissible after application was submitted and applicant met all financial requirements at the time of application.
Thanks

Please click on the my underline link(s) above for a court judgment analysis.

Some relevant rules appear to be 1

(c) The employment or self employment income of an applicant will be taken into account if they are in the UK, aged 18 years or over and working legally, and prospective employment income will not be taken into account (except that of an applicant’s partner or parent’s partner who is returning to employment or self-employment in the UK at paragraphs E-ECP.3.2.(a) and E-ECC.2.2.(a) of Appendix FM, or where paragraph 21A of this Appendix so permits).

“and working legally” is in the present tense and implies must be working at the time of the decision, else the employment or self employment income will not be taken into account?
