tenancy issue

Post by SHILPA123 » Fri Nov 30, 2012 10:01 am

Hello,

My husband will be applying for a spouse visa soon. I currently have a 6 month tenancy agreement that ends in march 2013. Since a spouse visa can take upto 6mnths to process, my current tenancy would have ended mid way through the application process.

Will it impact his visa? what can I do to prevent any complications.

Many thanks

Moving Home does not affect your application, you have to provide ukba with details of your new address when you move.

Thank you for the reply.

My husband will be applying in India. So, when I have my new tenancy where do I need to send it and address it to whom?

Regards

I don't it takes 6 month from India. Might be worth looking at these

When aplying for a SPouse VISA, make sure you have at least 6 months remaining in your tenancy agreement. Otherwise you are risking a refusal.

If you do not have 6 months remaining at the time of application submission. I would suggest you add in some sort of cover letter from the landlord/tenancy agency that the agreement is renewable every 6 months or something along the lines if this is only a 6 months agreement.

A standard Shothold Tenancy Agreement is usualy for 1 year.

Hope this helps.

I don't think it's correct, Can you please point to any case where it refused on Assured shortheld Tenancy Agreement duration, And in UK generally it is for six month and therafter one month rolling.

You have to prove that accommodation will be available to you both when your spouse ARRIVES in UK.

This can take the form of a tenancy agreement which should ideally be for 6 months or more
