Re: Visitor Visa - Sponsor Question

Hello all, Application for MIL was approved but I wanted to check something. The letter that was sent by me as Support for her visa indicated that she'd be staying for a month but my hubby is now saying that they're looking at potentially 4 months. Obviously I'm very worried that the HO will look at...

Hello, we are looking into submitting a visitor visa application for my MIL but I'm concerned about whether I can act as sponsor as I've already completed my husband's spouse visa FLR(M) late last year as his sponsor.

Hello all, I'm trying to access the visa immigration service website so I can complete my spouse's visa extension but the site isn't working at all.

Re: FLR(M) Questions

Hello, thanks for confirming I can use the 6 month payslips preceding the first maternity leave and writing a cover letter explaining this. Am I correct in assuming I'd still need a letter from my employer explaining that my job is safe and I've been getting mat leave/annual leave pay from them as w...

Re: FLR(M) Questions

Apply using income before the commencement of maternity.

FLR(M) Questions

Hello, I used this board to help me with some questions back when I was completing my husband's spouse visa, so I've come with more now that we're coming up to completing his FLR(M), which I assume is the correct next step in the process.

Re: Spouse Visa Questions

Hi, bumping this up to see if anyone responds to my document list.

Can I also ask about if there is a deadline for documents to be uploaded on the VFS website? I'm waiting on my final payslip and bank statement so I wasn't sure whether to start uploading things immediately or not?

Re: Spouse Visa Questions

Thank you for the replies to my questions. I am still a little stuck with the question regarding the financial requirement (Q7). I've seen a lot of people say that they've completed the VAF4A form, which I am also completing and I'm confused as to whether I should go with Category A or B. It is a pe...
