It'll be totally fine, I honestly felt so sick the whole time and it was an easy process. Its just the waiting thats hard so take something to distract you .

I just photocopied the photo page of both passports, I figured if they needed any other pages they would do it themselves

Hi guys As mentioned above my husband and I had an appointment at Croydon PSC last night. I just wanted to share my experience and hopefully help other people as this board has helped me so much. Background I am English and my husband is Australian. He came into the country on a partner visa in Marc...

Hi guys Just wanted to let you know we applied tonight at Croydon PSC and it was a pain free, easy process, the visa was approved within 2 hours. I will post tomorrow about the experience and what we submitted to try to help others. Thank you so much to the mods especially who have helped me - what ...

Thank you for your help .

Our appt is this afternoon.

For photocopies of passports, do I have to photocopy every page or just photo page?

We have:
Applicant passport
Applicant expired passport
Sponsor passport
Sponsor expired passport.

Thanks in advance!

Hi all I was wondering if I need to submit a covering letter for any part of / all of my application please? I am applying in person at Croydon PSC on Wednesday. I have seen a few people feedback to me that I should mention certain things (i.e. wage increase) in the cover letter but I can't see any ...

Hi everyone We are almost ready to submit my husbands FLR (M) next week at a PSC appointment and I wondered if you can sense-check my below documents and let me know if I need to provide anything further? Background My husband is Australian and moved to the UK in March 2016 on a Partner visa. We are...

Thank you seagul. I have another query on bank statements. My husband has ordered his 6 previous bank statements from hsbc and they arrived and look like proper bank statements that come in the post they just say ‘duplicate’ on them. Is that ok? For his most recent one for September it didn’t arrive...

Thank you, both for the response. Really appreciate it. Would either of you have any idea regarding my first question ? "1) Can I book an appointment for 12th November would that still be classed as attending an appointment after my visa has expired ? Or does it work differently with online ap...

Hi all, As discussed above, we are applying under Category A for FLR (M), the applicant has had a pay rise in their most recent salary, but we are going to rely on the lower rate of pay for the purposes of the form , and get the employer to explain the higher payslip in their cover letter. However, ...

Ok thank you. Yeah they have said that they will re-send statements which are on hsbc letterheads, so I assume that these won’t need stamping, is that right?

Hi guys

HSBC do not stamp statements and said they have not done this for years - has anybody else had this situation? Really not sure what to do now so any advice would be appreciated

Thank you. I was just going to do 7 to ensure we were covered but I guess i'll just do 6 in hindsight. Do the payslips have to be stamped as well as accompanied by the employer letter? Should the letter cover the reason why his last payslip is much higher (promotion)? Also, are the contracts not req...

^ thank you If anyone can help with the below that would be great, particularly if I am right about how the bank validate statements. Thanks! Context: My partner and I are applying for his FLR(M) and will rely on his salary alone for this under Category A. We plan to include: - 7 x months payslips s...

Hi guys Sorry I cant seem to find my old thread - mods please merge if you can see it anywhere? Context: My partner and I are applying for his FLR(M) and will rely on his salary alone for this under Category A. We plan to include: - 7 x months payslips showing April - October wages - 7 x months bank...

Thanks guys. For the financial requirement, I am going to include: Payslips: April - October Bank statements: April - October. We are having these printed out at the bank - do I need to get these stamped on each page as I read somewhere that printouts will not be accepted? 2 x employment contracts s...

Hey guys! Just checking the above is correct?

Thanks so much!

Hi guys

Sorry been away for the weekend so just catching up on this thanks for all your help!

So just so I am clear, we apply under Category A, stating the his previous wage on the form. Then in the cover letter from his employer, we will ensure that the pay rise is explained there?

Thanks

Your husband is earning enough to meed the financial requirement so just use his income, no need to mention yours. You need to apply under Category A as he has been with the same employer for the last 6 months. Put down the salary as £38k, you need to enter the lowest amount received in the last 6 ...

Thanks so much for your answers @CR001 :). Good advice on the post length, i'll keep it shorter next time. If anyone could help me with the below two questions that would be amazing! 7.3 From the list below, please indicate the financial source(s) and the amount of income you and/or your sponsor wis...

Hi there I am just filling out my partners FLR (M) form and have the below queries - i've looked elsewhere on the forum and cant find answers to these specific ones, so any help would be much appreciated. Just a background on our situation, I am from the UK, he is Australian and has completed his fi...

Fab, thanks for all your help. Much appreciated!

Hi guys I got my premium service appointment which is a relief. I needed one for October 17th and got one today ast 12.30am UK time, there were about 20 appointments when I looked, so thats obviously a good time to be looking. In terms of my visa application - apologies if this is a stupid question ...

I got one at 12.30am today - thank you!!

Sorry I have no idea. Have you tried asking a lawyer or calling citizens advice? There must be a way around it

Also, so if I want an appt on october 16th, from experience are appointment released all in one batch, so all the appointments for October 16th have already been released and taken? Or are they released in batches every morning?

Thanks
Lois
