VT, the law changed last April and it is no longer necessary for your partner to have NI number. The legislation is The Social Security (National Insurance Number Information: Exemption) Regulations 2009 . So VT, if I were you, I would write on the form, where it asks for your partner's NI number, ...
They sent my parent a form asking what is national insurance number is or if he didn't have one then why he didn't have a national insurance number. Either to fill out the form or call. So he called and they said 'if you don't have a national insurance don't bother filling the form out and we cannot...
I've now been told they can't process my child tax credits and working tax credits because my partner does not have a national insurance number.... what am I doing wrong??? I've tried to do this properly, telling everyone the right information and I'm getting it thrown back at me? I'm planning a wed...
Thank you for the verification. So he must be on the claim but does not need the national insurance number they say he must have. They already admitted to me that they have 'never come across a situation like this' which seems slightly bizarre! That said, I was just worried that they'd make be do so...
Can someone Please find this information somewhere official? I have looked and can't find any regulations officially. I'm afraid if I lose housing benefit he'll have to go back to the US after the wedding, because he'd be supporting me not the other way around! I'm so stressed/ worried about wedding...
As long as you can prove you can support him without claiming anyMORE benefit and/or he has enough savings to support himself you'll be okay. I am in the exact same situation and my fiance got his visa from the US in June, our wedding is in October so we haven't gone through the transfer of visa yet...
Does this not show that if I claim with my fiance my benefit will go up? http://www.horsham.gov.uk/council_services/council_services_777.asp Sorry, I just want to make sure this does not effect his marriage visa in a few weeks. Also, I just make up his national insurance number with his birthday? Ho...
He is on a fiancee visa = He cannot work and does not have a national insurance number. They are saying he MUST have a national insurance number for ME to claim housing benefit. Is this correct? I was under the assumption that it is done by how many people live there and the income, if the number of...
I am currently in argument with my local housing benefit office. They are threatening to stop housing benefit on the 25th August because I have refused to add my fiance to my claim. My partner is on a fiance visa and I was told he should NOT be on this claim under any circumstance, they are saying h...
It took new york 24 hours to decide to grant the first visa so fingers crossed for the next one. So he's allowed to stay while they make their mind up. Thats good. If you know, can you go for a in person application if your application includes info on benefits? Thanks for your time. It never ceases...
3 months?! Oh no! But his 6 months will be up by then if it takes 3 months for the next visa.
I am under the impression that we cannot apply in person as it's not a straight forward case.(he has enough savings to support himself but i get housing benefit and working tax credit)
3 months it'll be!
Sorry, we already have a fiance visa. We successfully got it with me on benefit. I guess my question is in which way is the financial section of the next visa different than the one we have now?
I'm sure all the experts here are fed up with the same question over and over. So I appoligise ahead of time. I am british with a british son and an American fiance. He is in the uk on a fiance visa. When we are married I am under the impression we have to apply for an extention/change to a husband ...
Hello, My fiancee is currently in the uk on a fiancee visa. We are not 100% clear what to do when we're married. Obviously he applied of his last visa from the u.s on the website. Is this the way we apply for the next time? And can anyone point out the different things we'll need to prove for this o...
Thank you very much for taking the time to spell it out to a silly, confused person! I will gather most of the information mentioned and go for it. Thank you again
The number of US turn arounds is tiny. Usually because they get smart arsed with the immigration officer and / or can't give a credible set of answers when interviewed. If his story and your story are the same, the evidence is there to show he can support himself (with your help of course), accommo...
This question is about when you are actually talking to the immigration officers. I have a fiancee that is planning to come over for 6 months (Our relationship started in the US, where he is from, I had to move back to the UK as my US visa ran out (I am British)) to experience the country, see if a ...
I'm a little confused, as usual, about the funding side of this visa. I am in full time employment but claim benefits because my wages do not cover child care, rent etc. From the responses I have got on the Claiming benefits section this should not be a problem because my fiancee will not be claimin...
