A question regarding the accommodation requirements

Post by Niende » Tue Feb 06, 2018 9:27 am

Hi,

I am applying for a spouse visa to join my wife in the UK. We are in the midst of gathering our paperwork and have encountered a snag regarding the accommodation section of the requirements:

My wife is currently a Junior doctor in the foundation training programme which lasts two years.
She lives in Brighton with a a friend of hers and works in the hospital there. At the end of the year (July) she has been assigned to work in a Hospital in East Surrey and we are planning on renting a place in South London together. We do not have this accommodation sorted out yet as you usually start looking a month or so before the move-in date. Her current flatmate is happy for me to move in whilst we are looking for a new place.
The issue is providing proof of accommodation past July. We are planning on explaining all this in a supporting letter and add it to the accommodation section of our application together with a letter from her landlord giving permission for me to stay in the current Brighton property until the end of the contract.
Would this suffice?

When are you applying?

HO is concerned about accommodate at the time of applying, not some date in distant future.

However, if your wife lives with a non related person, she will need a property inspection report to prove the property will not be overcrowded.
