Hi, My wife and i who is (chinese) have been married for 2 years, we were not foreseeing any problems for permanent residence until changes say that i have to make £18k+.

I work part time as a Student Social worker, but my wife works full time and makes over £19k a year. With money from her father we are even buying a house, so there will be no claims for benefits.

But unsure where i stand since i (the British spouse) don't make £18k+.

Any advice would be appreciated.

is your wife currently in the UK? if so what is her immigration status?

She is living with myself in the UK and has been working for 6 months, i think she is on a 2 year spouse visa which has not ended yet.

She definitely has a 2 year spouse visa that runs out in March 2013.
