Please think before you post all your personal information, employer and address on a public internet forum.

Letter should be addressed to UK Visa & Immigration who deals with visa applications. It is not dealt with by the British High Commission.

This type of employment should be considered under category 3 A right ?
And will his income be considered as 47000 or should I mention 43000 + 4000 shift pay in VAF 4 A form

If £4000 shift pay is earned on regular basis then £47000

This is to state that my sponsor ( husband ) has been working in a salaried employment since 28 th January 2019 . His contract mentioned a sum of 42000 pounds as his basic pay . On 1 st May this was uplifted to 43000 basic pay . He also receives a shift pay of 4000 per annum . Now my question is that in the VAF 4A form when it asks
Has your sponsor been in employment with the same employer and earning the amount as detailed in 3.11 continuously for 6 months prior to the date of application ( category 3 A)
What should I mention yes or No
If I say No will be considered in category B and give 12 months pay slip . My sponsor was a director of a private limited before this employment and I don’t want to go to that route .
Can I simply answer yes as the employer is the same only that there has been a rise in his basic pay by 1000 pounds . I will mention that separately in the end that he got an uplift of 1000 pounds during this 6 months of employment .

Please help

My husband’s employment letter has his job title as Aircraft Engineer but his contract says aircraft technician as his company is a Canadian company with its service centre in London and their people refer aircraft engineers as aircraft technicians. Both are the same thing . I submitted this contract in my last visa application as an evidence of a new employment that he was gonna join . My last visa application was refused on financial grounds.
Now will there be an issue since his contract says aircraft technician and his employment letter says aircraft engineer

[Faireena]

My husband Employment letter states his job title as an Aircraft engineer and as per his contract it is Aircraft technician . This contract was submitted in the last visa application . Will there be an issue as both is the same thing ?

Our last visa applicant was rejected as he was a director of a pvt ltd company and we had given insufficient payslips . Also our accountant made some incorrect payslips that were not matching with the bank statements. After this he joined a company on salaried employment where he has been working for 6 months . We had submitted the contract of this new employment then because soon after applying he had entered this new employment.

Mini statements won't be considered. Usually the bank staff can print the statement of entries/transaction on their own stationary which can serve the purpose.

He has got it from TSB bank . They printed the statements and certified every page of it . However on the top of the statement it says mini statement. I don’t know how else we will get statements without waiting for 10 days

If they are printed by the bank staff on their stationary then they should not be mini statements which usually be available on cash machines.

Thanks a lot . He went to the bank and got it printed again , this time on their stationary . 1) Do we need a letter from the bank now stating it’s authentic ?
2)Also , my husband’s employment according to the letter and his contract, commenced from 28 January . However his induction started on 14 th January 2019 . Hence he received the payment for those number of days from his employer. Since we have stated that he started working from 28 th January , will there be an issue if he has received payment for 14 days from his employer before the date of commencement of his employment as that is seen in his bank statement. P.S we are relying on his payslips from Feb to July .
3) his contract mentions his job title as aircraft technician however his employment letter states that he is an aircraft engineer. Both are the same things . Will there be an issue with this ? I have mentioned in our cover letter that he is an aircraft engineer/ technician

1. No

2. Induction is a part of employment. No issue for receiving payment for it. Employer letter must state that he started from 14th Jan. Good idea to attach payslips from Feb to July.

3. Don't attach contract but employment letter + payslips + bank statements.

[Faireena]

The problem is that in the last visa application I had written the date of commencement of employment as 28 th January according to his contract. His employment letter also states that he started the employment since 28 th January . I submitted the contract last time as an evidence of new employment that he was entering into . Now if I say that he started from 14 th January , it will come across as a lie .
According to his company his actual date of commencement is from 28 th January before that they were attending some sort of classes . But because he has got payment for that and that shows in our bank statement, can we not simply say that he had 2 week of induction courses before . So that they know why we have got that money.

[Faireena]

Thanks. Everything is sorted now . Hope I get my visa

One last question , will I be allowed to work as a doctor in a training post after getting GMC registration . I have heard there is some limitation there but not sure if it’s valid in my case as my husband is a British citizen

The limitations on Dr in training only applies to PBS Dependent visas and not spouse settlement visas.

[Faireena]

Thanks a lot. It’s a great news for me

Still no issue. Simply attach bank statements & payslips from Feb-July same as you planned.
