URGENT help required

[confusedcitizen]

1) Would i have to provide a credit card statement as well? or would my regular statement showing my wages going in be sufficient?

2) Do i need a copy of my new employment contract because i still dont have that... i do however have a letter from my old boss and new boss stating that my job is safe and permanent.

3) i have a current appointment report already showing my old boss on there, will i have to get another one now showing my new boss on there?

Thanks again!

1. No, the credit card statement isn't necessary. Just the bank statements for your personal account showing the wages going in is all the is required.

2. Employment contracts are not a required piece of evidence under Appendix FM-SE (paragraph 2A). The officer reviewing the application may request it if they feel they need additional documentation, but it is not necessary to include include with the application submission.

3. I'm not sure how "current" yours is if it shows an old boss. The specified evidence listed in paragraph 9 of Appendix FM-SE is a current appointment report from Companies House, my guess would be "current" is the same as what is available from Companies House at the application date.

Gotcha! thanks for that. Much appreciated! Few more things as you've been so knowledgeable:

1) Once we've completed and paid for the online application at gov.uk will it then give us the option to upload online?

2) If were uploading online is there a deadline to get everything on there?

3) Would my wife still have to send her passport to the UKVI? If so is there a deadline after the biometrics?

thanks!

1. Yes but you need to opt for self scanning.
2. Ensure you have uploaded all documents 24 hours before biometrics.
3. Applicant will submit their passport at the VAC.

I see, thats very helpful, thanks. Would we opt for self scanning at the end of the application after paying for it?

Appreciate all the info guys, its been invaluable.

The LTD business i work for has been sold and is now owned by another LTD company. We are still trading by the same name, just my paychecks come from the other company now.

Will i have to provide the docs for the business i work at or the business who owns the business i work at?

Your new employer should mention in your employment letter that it is a transfer of business from old company to new company.

My wife had her biometrics appointment today in Portland, Oregon for her priority spouse visa to come to the UK.

All our supporting documents were already self uploaded but at the appointment they said they're not allowed to answer any questions, all they did was give her a piece of paper with this link on it about where to ship everything.

The whole point in us uploading everything was so we didnt have to ship it!

Even our immigration lawyer is stumped. We dont know what to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
