Hi everyone, Apologies for posting yet another question - can't find the answer in the previous 18 pages though; please link me to it if I missed it! For the new income requirement for ILR applicants (specifically Tier 1 General), does the earnings threshold have to be met for all 5 qualifying years...

How will the Home Office know he is redundant unless you tell them? I presume you already have the letter from the employers and pay slips prepared anyway - so I, personally, would see this as a case where I would apply as planned. After all, if he was made redundant a week after the FLR what would...

hi, sorry to bump this again - another situation has arose. My husband (sponsor) was made redundant this month. I am nervous as to how this will affect my FLR(M) application, which we will make at the PEO in Croydon this Tuesday (13 Nov). We are both university graduates with strong employment prosp...

I have a related question - My husband (sponsor) was made redundant this month. His most recent payslip is from 2 weeks ago, and he should have no problem finding another job (he has already had 2 interviews and has another 3 lined up). My FLR(M) appointment, however, is Tuesday and I am worried it ...

thank you for the info and the PDF; both are very helpful. i finally got a hold of someone at the Home Office and you are correct; a letter from the landlord should be sufficient, so long as it states the duration for which we can live there. am i missing any other documents? this is all we have, un...

mym, thanks for the advice. sadly our bank statements do not reflect direct deposits, although they do show the monthly rent withdrawn in cash. perhaps if i get the leaseholder and the landlord to write that we are living there, it would be okay? do you know if they ask for evidence of living accomm...

Documents required for FLR(M)

Sorry to ask this question, as the process appears to be straightforward, but I have been unable to find this topic covered in a thread. I am applying for FLR(M) (in person) and do not have proof of adequate accommodation. I have been living in a rented flat with my fiancé for the past 4 months, an...

Re: switching from Fiance to Student visa

thank you for your response, Victoria. i imagine it would be easier to simply state that the relationship ended, and i am returning solely for academic purposes? You seem to be all over the place, you intend to study and work and keep the relationship but it ended. It doesnt make sense the relation...

switching from Fiance to Student visa

I am in the UK on a fiance visa, which is set to expire 15 Nov. I am an American citizen who has been living here legally since Dec 06 (first on a 6-mo BUNAC visa, now on a fiance visa). While we are going to remain together, my boyfriend (British citizen) and I have decided not to get married right...
