Re: Spouse Visa - Online Application *URGENT*

I don't have experience of the online application system as I completed my journey a few years ago still on paper forms. You don't want to give UKVI any reason to refuse, that is the point I am making. As you are applying in Pakistant, I am sure you have to send the supporting documents to Sheffiel...

But is it the case that the dates only have to be relevant up until the date of the Online Application?

Re: Spouse Visa - Online Application *URGENT*

Remember that certain documents cannot be older than 28 days, you need to keep that in mind. I am aware of that, however I was advised that beyond the online application date it doesn't matter as that is counted as the date of the application. So documents that are within 28 days of that date are s...

Yup, reschedule your appointment and it should all be fine. I wasn't able to reschedule it because she attended today and was turned away. She was told to come back as soon as it was removed - however she'd have to pay 3000 PKR extra. So I have 3 months before the intended date of arrival which I p...

Re: Spouse Visa - Proof of Accommodation Ownership

Hi klite, my understanding is that the focus of the accommodation requirement is based on two factors 1) Permission 2) Overcrowding Since you do not own the property, you need to provide proof of the permission to occupy. Since you do not have a sole tenancy agreement and the property is shared wit...

If you have read the link properly, you would have noted that bedrooms and living rooms are counted as rooms. Only Spam and bathrooms are excluded in...
