Living Together before Initial Entry Clearance

Post by rcro » Mon Jan 08, 2018 3:48 pm

Hi there. I'm in the process of filling up my application form for FLR(M) for the 5 year route. I am confused about the question (online form) When did you start living togetherr and below that are lines to fill in an address. I filled in our current address where we have lived since I arrived here in 2015 on my Entry Clearance. My confusion is that my reply to the question is February 2013 as we have indeed started living together back then in another country. . .do I need to provide proofs of us living together then?

Also, as proof of relationship, do I need to provide photos and occasion cards etc?

Thank you very much in advance.

No.

You don't state on what basis you are completing FLR(M). Are you married or are you applying as an unmarried partner??
I filled in our current address where we have lived since I arrived here in 2015 on my Entry Clearance.
What visa is this 'entry clearance'??

Apologies for late response as too busy with my document preparation :oops: . Anyway... thank you again for responding. My application is FLR(M) unmarried partner (first extension of leave to remain). Sorry but just to clear my head on this, my answer to When did you start living together is February 2013 (referring to before Entry Clearance was granted). Entry Clearance was granted last May 2015, afterwhich I moved here. But because they are only asking for the last two years prior to application of FLR(M) then I don't need to include proofs of addresses from February 2013 up to the time Entry Clearance was granted?

Again, appreciate your time.

I don't suppose I answered my own question, have I? :) It's just that some of the questions are a bit confusing and I just want to make sure I am giving the correct answers/proofs/documents required. :?

For the question you need to state when you started living together and if that was Feb 2013, then that is what you state.

The requirement for FLR(M) is to provide evidence of cohabitation and subsisting relationship for the 2 years preceding the date of application.

They are two separate issues.
