amount saved to show I can support wife each month

[2036789]

hi what is the amount you have to save each month to show you can support your wife, my wife is in pakistan, im in UK heres how much i saved each month on my 6 months bank statement:

month 1: £20 ( because of new job)
month 2 : £500
month 3: £900
month 4: 1'100
month 5 : 1'000
month6 : 1'000

please note im showing how much i saved after bills and my living costs and the £150 money transfer i send her every month and this is not my end bank balance. Am i saving enough each month, some said the standard is to show you can save £94 a week is this true.

in theory the amount refers to what the law says you need to live on - as far as basic needs go- however, in reality, and in these times of economic hardship, it means more.
After bills you need to show that you have a disposable income of £94 - £150 a week

The required amount of money left over from your income after rent/mortgage and any utility bills have been paid is £94.95 per week for 2 of you. It's based on the income support level calculated by the Government.
