does anybody know if you have to supply photocopys of bank statements as well as everything else?
as its over 100 pages for 12 months worth, what have applicants on here been photocopying ?

can anyone help with my query? in the finance guideline it says "6.3. Dividends and other investment income – further guidance 6.3.1. If income has been earned from investments, shares and/or stocks in the 12 months prior to the date of application and the relevant asset was then sold, we will ...

Hi aman thanks for posting the exact wordings of your refusal. how long before did you actually get divorced from your ex-wife? was it a long time? you can maybe explain the reason why you got married again just 10 days after the divorce took place due to you went back to your country and then appli...

A very good question spbos as i am in a similar situation myself and would like the answer to this also. As by not showing my income from my limited company and just showing the savings i have, would the immigration officer suspect where i got all the savings from if i dont declare my income from my...

Well its not that scary either, if you have sufficient funds available you can withdraw dividends and ofcourse accountant have to mention this in accounts you will prepare. And the documents I sent this time weighs over 4 Kg (without photocopies) :) With these dividends that i withdraw from the com...

No, it's completely wrong and will set the ECO braincell into operation and check with HMRC etc... You should be liaising with your accountant and drawing up the correct paperwork and dividend vouchers, you can't just draw out what you feel like. This money you have withdrawn will be entered agains...

With dividends and salary payments, does it look odd that i withdrew random amounts from the company at random dates?. i have not spoken to the accountant about this yet, but would like any opinions whether it looks normal to withdraw large dividends and salary for a few months consecutively and the...

With the priority settlement application service or the super priority visa service for £600, does anyone know if this applys to the spouse visa?

and is a settlement visa the same as a spouse visa?

Also I spoke with a uk Soliciter and for me to get a divorce in uk for my ex-wife on Pakistan it can take ok infer than 6 months maybe even 9 months he said. Whereas if I get it in Kashmir it's done in the court on the same day. That's what I heard. That there give you an official document for divor...

I did pm you before, did you get it?

i would like to know the answer to the above also as i am in a similar boat to yours

or in the appeal you can tell them you don't receive the third party support any more, but i don't know whether that will help your case

I'm thinking they refused it just because i said i get third party support? Thats entrapment and really not the British Spirit :( hi waqas, there was another post a few days ago on here where someone was refused just on the basis of him ticking the box which asks about third party support, even tho...

Are you domiciled in the UK? As if you are you need to check whether your divorce will be accepted by ukba, as if you are domiciled in the uk and your ex-wife is also in the UK, the UKBA may expect you to get a divorce through the uk courts. I have heard two opinions so far, one says that a Pakistan...

Found this entry clearance guidelines, "Instances are sometimes encountered of bare talaqs in Kashmir purporting to have been converted into full talaqs by notification to the Union Council. However, the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance does not apply in Kashmir and therefore such notification has ...

Thanks for the replys,

I did read something about the Kashmir courts somewhere but can't seem to find the details for that now.

I can't see why there won't accept the divorce if it's done by the Kashmir court ?

If I get a Kashmir court order for the divorce , would ukba accept it, even though I am domiciled in uk,

Any help with this query will be really appreciated As i got married in azad kashmir a few years ago i now need to apply for a divorce so that i can apply for a spouse visa for my new wife. my ex-wife has never entered the uk and is domiciled in azad kashmir. UKBA gulidelines state: http://www.ukba....

i remember when i got married in Pakistan that the person who done the marriage took a while to send the papers off to get it registered as i think he may have been sending it in batchs

I got married just a week ago. So what'd be the alternatives now? Any suggestions please? if you just got married a week ago, then get hold of whoever did your marraige and tell them not to process it yet. if he can put your marriage papers on hold, then you can wait for your decree absolute to com...

thanks again, no children or assets are involved, i just read on the www.gov.uk/divorce/respond-to-a-divorce-petition that if the spouse disagrees with the divorce there may have to pay a fee of £245, which i doubt there will be willing to pay, and if a divorce is defended on both sides the court wi...

thanks again for the advice,

i am hoping that when i do this it takes less then 3 months to get the divorce absolute, as a 6 month process would not work out too good for me
