Sure. I read that and still feel unsure regarding the document and proof required to apply for a family permit.

I dont have a contract but i am registered with schools. It would be nice to find more info and examples

Hello, I am currently in Germany as a "Freelance English teacher". I work very irregular hours and will pay tax after three months. Is there a minimum weekly or monthly hours I need to complete? I spend a lot of time travelling to classes and preparing lessons but my work hours range from ...

Yeah it still seems vague if its better to drive across the border or try and convince airline staff to let us go that way! Do you know where I could find answers to these questions- How long is the minimum period to prove the COL test? it seems some people have posted 3 months is too short, is 6 mo...

Hey buddy, thanks for your help. Yeah its just frustrating if nobody replies! I need to spice up my titles and include a revealing photo when I post :) So we are basically moving to Germany imminently and she is on a shengen. We will then apply for a resident card and stay there for 4-6 months. Your...

@Sheraz7, just out of curiosity do you cherry pick topics to reply to or is it just which title appeals? I found help elsewhere but it seems there is kind of priority of certain topic titles and users. I understand its a free forum but if I had the knowledge I would certainly try and spread informat...

OK. it it legal to change her tourist visa to a residence card with her tourist type c visa? Does she have to leave the country

Then after she gets her residence card she can travel to UK with just this?

Thanks for your post btw

Also my wife already has a shengen tourist visa until may and we dont know what is the best route. Is it best to still apply for a permit in her native ukraine them move to germany or just move to germany and gain a residence card there? Very confused

Someone please help

We are moving to Germany asap.

So if we move stay in Germany for 6 months under SS route, I can visit family UK for up to six weeks and this wont affect our centre of life?

Understandably my thread title isn't the most glamorous but i would still really appreciate some help if someone has a minute.

bump! ))

Hello, I have read through almost every thread and checked online but still have unanswered queries. My spouse is Ukrainian and we are set to move to EU to pursue the SS route but we unsure if we should apply for a family permit prior to arriving to our new country or arrive separately? We plan to s...

Maybe my thread title isn't marketed well enough.

Can anyone please shed some light on contracts from employers

Anyone that can help?

Hello, my company hasnt given me a contract yet because they are waiting for a response of a government grant. I am currently employed on a temporary contract with the plan to go permanent once the grant has been approved. I cant find any information on which contract the HO deem acceptable by using...

Hello, thanks again for the tips. Really helpful! I have been paid this week, first months pay but my boss has made a mistake and paid me 16 days at 18,000 per year. My boss has said he can provide any documents including a letter stating a pay rise plus my other employer documents required for this...

Thank you again for your wisdom! This is my first months pay next week, so its first payslip and my company registering me as they use an external company for the staff salaries. I have expressed to my boss that it all should be aligned and from the same source and i will be registered with the RTI ...

Thank you that is very sound advice and we didn't consider any of those points until now. I have contacted the lawyers we used in Spain and hopefully we can find a cheap way to translate and get certified. My employer is going to make my documents next week but my bosses run two companies. I asked t...

Additionally , I also have a bank account in Spain and not sure how i can get verified bank statements as I check it on online banking

Hello , I cant find any information regarding these worries! I want to make an application sooner rather than later, the bank statements take 10 working days to be sent out by post. Do the HO accept printed bank statements with a stamp and letter from the bank instead of the original statements sent...

Yep, you are right. My wife has confused Non-Salaried employment in Cat B and confused me too!

Thanks again

Apologies, tiredness is to blame. I meant that in the last 12 months I have earnt over 18,600 but in the last three months I have been out of work and starting a new job next week. I have read that to meet part 1 of Cat B, they calculate the last 6 months in part 1 and in part 2 the entire last 12 m...

Hey Obie,

if part 1 of Cat B is not met, calculating the last 6 months, x 12 is around 15,000 but over the last 12 months its 19,300 so is part 2 of Cat B sufficient to use this option?

Thanks

I have been offered a temporary contract with it changing to permanent in two months. If i make a spouse visa application using Cat B will this temporary contract suffice?
