What is your UK immigration status?

If you have ILR or are BC, you must submit 6 months payslips and 6 months corresponding bank statements if a PAYE employee. 12 months documents if you are self employed.

Your wife is the applicant.

If your wife is not in the UK, you cannot apply for one day service in the UK. She must submit her application in the country she is in.

Where is she applying from as different processes apply to certain countries?

Your spouse is the applicant NOT YOU!! She must apply. You helping to complete the forms does not mean you are applying for her and she does nothing. She must sign the forms and submit them and her biomtrics.

Where is she currently, UK or abroad??

Thanks for your reply. This is the information I got

In the past anyone applying for a British visa in Pakistan would normally visit and make an application at the Embassy in Islamabad, Karachi and Lahore. Unfortunately due to the terror threats in Pakistan, this is no longer possible.

Instead the British Embassy uses its service provider, Gerry’s FedEx for applicants to lodge certain documents(Applicants passport and biometrics only) in Islamabad, Mirpur, Lahore and Karachi.

The rest of the application and supporting document are now sent to UKBA offices in Sheffield England. The address for supporting documentation to be sent to is:
Where should I send supporting documents
The address for supporting documentation to be sent to is:

Settlement applications
The Portergate – Level 1 (Home Office - UKVI)
257 Ecclesall Road
Sheffield
S11 8NX
United Kingdom

from here
http://www.immigrationboards.com/immigr ... 93554.html

I am confused which documents will be submitted from UK and which from Pakistan.


Secondly I am confused about I am planning to apply in April. Which date should I put in 'Planned arrival in UK'.

The link you have provided tells you exactly what documents get sent where. As does the online system once you have completed the form. It is still the applicant in Pakistan that has to apply, YOU cannot apply for them.

The date you wish to travel is the date you put. No one can tell you what to put and there is no 'right or wrong' answer.
