Your chances of losing the appeal are much higher if you represent yourself.Good luck with your appeal please update us on how it goes. Nonsense. Depends on the complexity of the case. If your case is straight forward and you have done your research and prepared well for the case, I see no reason w...
If your spouse is applying for entry clearance into the UK using form VAF4A, then I'm afraid that the expiry date on the IELTS certificate will apply and it won't be accepted. It's fine to use an expired certificate for ILR and BC purposes and even FLR(M), but not for entry clearance. Can your spous...
Accommodation details You may wish to submit any of the following documents to provide us with evidence of your accommodation. We advise that you do not make any payments for accommodation, travel and so on until you have received your visa. Details of the accommodation that you and your sponsor in...
You should be fine. A valid TB Certificate is only required at the point of submitting the spouse visa application. You will have no problems traveling to the UK.
Including calling cards will not be a rejection if you included them, but they will not be taken into consideration and simply be ignored. The reason being as I explained the calling cards cannot show evidence of you making the calls to your spouse. As such I would say its best not to include them a...
If you have a degree from a UK University, then that is all you need.
The point based calculator and NARIC is for overseas degrees taught in English to show equivalence to a UK degree. Since you already have a degree from a UK University, you don't need to bother with PBS or NARIC.

Here are all the results. Listening 3.5 Reading 3.0 Writing 5.0 Speaking 4.5 Thanks...
For FLR(M), you only need Level A1 test. Level B1 is for ILR/BC applications. I would double check if the expired test is acceptable for FLR(M). The Home Office will accept it for ILR/BC applications (if used in the past) but that does not mean to say they will for FLR(M). The Home Office can get fu...
Every application is assessed on it's own individual basis. It's at the discretion of the Home Office/Border Agency if they feel you require an interview or not, regardless of what documents you may submit.
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/325377/list_of_approved_english_language_tests_01_07_14.pdf Have a look at the above list of acceptable qualifications by the Home Office. Avoid doing ESOL Entry Level 3 awarded by Trinity as this has now been removed from the...
Below scenario is still acceptable by Home Office B1 from Trinity College is acceptable for FLR(M) as well as for ILR but B1 from Learning Resource Network (LRN) is not acceptable for FLR(M) but acceptable for ILR. Both registered in ofqual register Sometimes I can never grasp the concept of how th...
Just ensure that the ESOL Skills for Life Entry Level 3 certificate is awarded by Cambridge English as the one offered by Trinity College has been removed from the Home Office list of acceptable qualifications (effective from 1st August 2014). Sort of confirms uktraveller.030209 post above about cha...
You will have to search around. There are many places that allow you to sit the exam without doing the course. This would depend how good your English is. If you feel you can speak and communicate well, then go for the exam. If you struggle, then doing the course would be beneficial. However, that b...
Yes they are on ofqual list but not on approved list and also if they accept same certificate for ILR then why not for FLR(M) ??? Also even trinity college is on oqual list and so others ?? Can i challenge home office decision ? Can i ask home office to review my case as i can't wait 5 more years t...
As long as the TB certificate is valid at the time of submitting the application, you should be fine.
An application can easily take several months or even more to decide, so even a fresh six month certificate would have expired by the time a decision is made.
Not 6 different documents, but minimum of 6 documents over the 2 years from 3 different sources. So bank statements over 2 years is one source. Electric bill is another source. NHS letter is one source, there are your 3 sources, spread evenly over the two year period. Documents can be 3-4 months apa...
Ignore the years, this just creates confusion. The Life in the UK at at 3rd Edition which was updated in March 2013. It has not been updated since and still stands at 3rd edition at time of writing. Ensure any materials reflects 3rd edition. Material will only change when the Home Office introduces ...
In addition to Amber's post, English B1 cannot be a reason for refusal for FLR(M), it exceeds Level A1 and more than satisfies the requirement. Are you sure this is a reason stated in the refusal letter or has you misunderstood it? I've got goggled LRN and they claim to be a approved qualification f...
It's about about blocking it. Banks will have a fraud prevention measure in place and a large transaction can trigger this, especially if you are not normally use to making large transaction on a regular basis. Say you're normal transactions is around the few hundred pounds mark and you are trying t...
Care to mention which bank. Different banks seem to have different rules. I printed mine too for the spouse visa a couple of years ago, went into my local branch (Barclays) and they were more than happy to stamp each page for the last six months. £1 per page :shock: If you are applying for ILR, 3 mo...
What is required is 6 documents in joint names spread over the two years from 3 different sources. If you don't have 6 documents in joint names, then one in each name will do. You seem to have more than what is required so you are relax a bit. So one joint document (or one in each name) for every 4 ...
