Maintenance of Funds for spouse visa

[bhatti_pk]

Dear members,

I have an ILR visa.

I want to apply for spouse visa (wife).

How much funds I should have in my bank account (savings) for maintenance of funds?

Do i have to maintain these funds for 6 months or 3 months?

There is no 'maintenance fund' requirement for a spouse visa.

You must prove to HO with minimum of 6 payslips and bank statements that you meet the financial requirement of £18,600 pa or have held at least £62,500 in savings for a minimum of 6 months.

Thank you.

I have salary of 60k pa. due to wedding expenses I spent all of my money and there is no money in my account now.

Should i add 2 to 3 thousand pounds in account for 3 months and then apply for spouse visa OR I can apply with zero amount in bank statement.

Please note, I can show them 6 months salary slips and bank statement where my salary is coming.
