Yes you can apply after 6 months of employment. The qualifying amount for minimum annual income is taken as gross earnings before tax and NIC deductions. :idea:

Hey

So i would earn around £1,583 per month before tax and NIC is taken. So will that allow me to apply for the spouse visa?

Because i seen some post where people earn £19000 a year but gets rejected, but the post are from 2014 and 2015.

Hey I have a question

My partner is Mexican so she does not need a visa but we are going to get her a spouse visa but my 6th month pay check will be march.

She needs to leave February but is it possible for her to stay at all to apply for the spouse visa in March? Otherwise I will have to apply outside of the UK.

She need to apply spouse visa from her home country and during the visa process if she can't enter as visitor with the prior intention of settlement.
