Thanks elena, but it's too late for that because the post takes 2 weeks to arrive and his appointment is next monday! Is it worth putting in scanned photocopies (i can send him in an email) an explaining the originals didnt arrive?
Hi My husband submitted his online application for a spouse visa in his home country on 20th July and the first available appointment to submit his documentation was 16th August, which we booked. He has my bank statements up until June, but all the more recent statements I have sent in the post have...
Sorry to hear your husband's visa was refused. I thought there had to be aggravating circumstances to refuse under 320 (11) - i.e a premeditated intention to work or something. Can any of the moderators help with this?
Just in case you can't find it - this is the current list of aggravating circumstances: absconding; not complying with temporary admission / temporary reporting conditions / bail conditions; not complying with reporting restrictions; failing to comply with removal directions (RDs) after port refusal...
Thanks for your reply John. He wasn't living with me here - he was on a student visa but he was refused an extension. So in theory I need to show I have extra to support him. We are also submitting a letter, offering him employment when he comes back, from his previous employer (he was working 20 ho...
Hi there My fiance and I have decided to get married in his country in a few weeks and the apply for a spouse visa (I'm British). I've been on here several times asking various questions and getting together what we need for the application - thanks for all the help so far! The problem is I'm really...
No doubt more pennies saved for you. I think I will become your own PA ( but wont charge you anyway near the rates like teh above) :D :lol: Haha - yes, you could set up a business BK :) Thanks very much both - I have just rung another solicitor who reckons they will charge £5 for the whole thing -...
Hiya My fiance and I have been together since August 09, but we split up about 4 months later for a few weeks (because I didn't want any more children and he hasn't got any). But because we loved and missed each other we decided to get back together. If we tell this in our application do you think i...
Hiya Just searching the forum for info about getting a copy of my passport certified. The solicitor I rang wants £10 per page - that would be around £100!!! I see that the Post Office does it much cheaper - can anyone tell me if that's good enough?? See below: http://www.postoffice.co.uk/portal/po...
Why pay Boots when you can have them done free. There are a few website offering to print up to 50 fotos for free. You only pay postage of about £1,50 Here is one such link http://uk.aldi.com/ Every penny saved could be of use to you in future :wink: Thanks Batleykhan, that's great! You're right, ...
Hi there
We are applying for a fiance visa. As all our photographs are digital, how should we submit them - is it OK to print them off on ordinary paper or do they have to be on photographic paper?
And it it OK just to write the date and the occasion next to each photo?
Thanks.
Hi again My boyfriend has been trying to arrange with the Home Office to go home, but they keep telling him the other department (who refused his tier 4 application) have not yet sent over his passport so they won't let him book his flight home. His refusal letter was dated 25th May and the IAS advi...
Hi again! My fiance will be going back to Chile to apply and they only accept online applications there. I am quite worried as I was planning that we would complete the application together - his English isn't brilliant and he could easily miss something out etc. The website says he also has to make...
Hiya Spouses will need to pass an approved English test at level A1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

Hi there I would be really grateful if anyone is able to answer my question: My boyfriend was refused a student visa extension and has to leave the UK in about 2 weeks. We have now got engaged as we love each other and don't want to split up so we are going to apply for a fiance visa when he gets ho...
Thanks very much to both of you for your replies. I'm just so paranoid they will do everything to try to refuse his visa. I've got loads of information from this forum (it's so helpful) and am compiling a list of documents to include and things to say in my letter. Do you think it's a good or bad id...
Hi all Sorry to be asking more questions, but I am a little unclear on something and it's really important we get it right. My boyfriend's student visa was due to expire in December 09 and he applied for a tier 4 extension a few weeks before this. On 8th April he got a letter saying the application ...
Thanks very much everyone - this is so helpful. My boyfriend has to leave the UK immediately as he was refused a student visa extension. As his first application was "invalid" (HO said his payment didn't going through) his second application was sent in "out of time" and technica...
Hi there My boyfriend and I need to decide which option to take: 1. getting married first in Chile and then applying for a spouse visa for my husband to come and live in UK. 2. applying for a fiance visa for him to come to UK to get married. Can anyone tell me pros and cons of these, e.g. is one mor...
