Dear members, I am a British citizen living in Dubai for the last 2 years. Now I prefer to move back to UK with my fiancé so I can get married in the UK and switch for spouse visa there. As per the requirements, I will submit my UAE salary slips and bank statements but how can I prove the accommodat...

Thanks for your reply. But what is the solution to this problem? Does it mean I can never bring my wife in the UK?

Hi, While being married in the UK, if someone re-marries outside the UK in a country where polygamy is accepted and then later applied for divorce in the UK to first wife, would it cause any problems in applying for spouse visa for later wife whereas date of marriage will be BEFORE the date of divor...

Hi, I need to know if someone applies for SET (DV) directly without applying for 3 months discretionary leave to get benefits, and if the partner doesn't inform HO for curtailment of current spouse visa, then what happens ifSET (DV) is refused. Does the original spouse visa leave continues. My actua...

I just called UKVI they said a decission has been made. Does anyone have an idea how long does it take to get email/sms/call after this?

I found a very good timline. So far they have reached Biometrics done on 11th May for priority applications. Haven't seen anywhere any approval for biometrics after 11th May so far:

I am in a dilemma too and very nervous as I was only able to sent watsapp communication chat screenshots but no call logs as I had a bad habit of deleting my call logs and my wife was very busy we only chat rather than phone calls. But in addition, I did sent money transfer receipts, tickets, gift &...

Can you shed some light why was it refused? Just to update I sent them pre-paid envelope with tracking no. and just now it shows they have posted by documents back today. So it clearly means they have opened my application and I have included priority receipt inside so they have taken notice of it.

Where in their guidelines or VFS site does it mention to write PRIORITY outside envelope? I did include receipt inside the envelope though

Applied for spouse visa priority biometrics given on 14/05/2018 and documents sent to Sheffield on 22/05/2018. I forgot to write PRIORITY outside on the envelope. Although did include priority receipt inside the application forms. I fear the application might be treated as a "standard". So...

I have gone through all the process but I want some clarification on what is best to submit from here. So this is what I concluded: 1. I as sponsor fill in online application form on her behalf. 2. I also print out and fill in VAF4A form on her behalf. 3. Then she has to simply go to Gerryrs to subm...

Yes I have the decree absolute. I will marry this month. I have been going through the procedures but confused what will need to be submitted by me as sponsor from here in UK and what will need to be submit by her in Pakistan at Gerrys? For example, things like Nikah-nama etc should these be submitt...

Is this for a different wife?

Your previous posts state you and your wife applied for citizenship in 2015.

Unfortunately it was a different wife

Hi, Please can someone guide me on the process of applying for my wife from Pakistan. So as I understand, I will have to fill in online application form for her and then she will have to print that out and submit it to Gerrys with passport, English test and fees to be paid there. As I am the sponsor...

Can anyone please reply? Thanks

Hi, I need an advice on sponsoring wife from Pakistan. As I have seen form VAF4a, there is nowhere it asks for convictions or criminal record of the sponsor. Would it have any impact on getting spouse visa for wife whereas if the husband/sponsor has a common assault (domestic violence with ex-wife) ...
