Hi,
My issue is abit complicated. I am a british citizen living in the uk, been married for 3 yrs, husband working abroad. we have a 33 months old toddler and is expecting out second baby in sept 2012. my husband has applied for a spousevisa in june 2011, last year and has got rejected due to insufficient funds.
he managed to fix his savings and has about 12k in his savings account,however i am recieving income support, and child tax cred. i have been looking for work since bfore my pregnancy and unfortunately was not successful enough, and then i became pregnanct so its nearly impossible now to find a job.
so he re-applied again for the second time in april 2012 and got another rejection, because eco believes that the funds are not enough to maintain himself and us (his wife and child) and that i am recieving public funds, plus a new issue that they dont believe we r genuinely married due to a silly typo on the date of marriage on the translated verison of the marriage certificate.
my husband has been looking for jobs in the uk, along with his supporting documents he has sent all his certifctes, cv , company respondings that he is a successful potential applicant to different positions for different companies in the uk. however, it is very hard to get an offer since he is still not yet in the country with no work permit, so no comapny would recruit him unless he is settled here first.
we have applied on the basis of reunting the fam, and that we will live with our parents at thier flat (rent-free) , so the only option we have now is the appeal? but on what grounds should we appeal?! its funny how according to the law here, a mother who has a child under 5 is entitled to income support and for my case i am a mother of a nearly 3 yr old and 5 months pregnant how can i be working while i should be looking after my child
so for the appeal? i know it is a long process but its worth a try anyway, i have been thinking to take up any job n stop my benefit as soon as i give birth in sept, but i am not sure if the appeal would still be in process ! may i please have some advice, i am lost and very distressed!
Thanks very much
