Fiance visa UK Help

Post by lope85 » Fri May 25, 2012 8:10 pm

Hi , My partner is Indian and I am British, living and working in UK. He has studied and worked in the Uk previously. After his work visa expired for Uk we both went over to India to have a go at living there. decided we both want to settle in UK, I have a full time job - 40 hours per week, perm contract about £7.50ph. I understand I have to show I am able to support him until he is eligible to work but I'm really concerned my income is too low. He is working in India and will have no problem integrating into society over here and intends to seek employment once he can. I would really like to hear from you if you been through the experience of applying for a fiance visa and perhaps offer your opinion on our situation. Thanks

My partners about to apply for the fiance visa for Uk. I'm on a regualr income although fairly low. I was wandering if I was to borrow money in the form of a loan from the bank, to show as financial backup, do you think this would help our application or would actually have a negatve effect on it ?

I understand that the sponsors income should be over £106 (?) after rent council tax each week. I am living with my sister and pay her £65 cash each week for rent and all bills. When applying for the visa am I supposed to prove that I pay my share of council tax ? and how?

thanks in advance :)
