If it helps, we submitted about 15 docs of cohabitation - my wife is also on the spousal visa at present and pending ILR. About 7 or 8 in joint and rest in single names, everything covers from the date she entered the country, right up untill the point of application - Everything in date order .. Th...

One thing I have learnt from this ILR process, im no legal eagle btw, is if you use the settlment checking service with the LEA who then in turn forward your docs to UKBA on your behalf, the partner of the applicant gets his or her passport back at the point of file submission ! I know this does not...

Thanks will do,

so details to be written on the back of the draft it is then and cheque details to be filled in on the payment form..

These forums are a godsend ! Bless you all..

I would say, treat it like a cheque, which indeed it is, albeit a special sort of cheque, one that will definitely clear (assuming it is a real bankers draft and not a fake). John if I treat it like a cheque would it be fair to say to remain consistent and write the details of my wife who's applyin...

Thanks mate Wish they would make these things clear - its so stressful applying as it is ! I wasnt going to write anything in the cheque details section of the payment form, becuase above it, it says , please tick if paying by cheque - and then on the far write a box for bankers draft then drectly b...

I have got a bankers draft for £972, ready to go with the set m application.. Couple of questions q1 - Since bankers draft is a guaranteed cheque , is it a requirement to put the bankers draft number , sort code and account number from the draft directly on the payment form, under the heading which...

Because I knew there was a window in which one would need to apply in, so we didn't hurry with the preparation of the application as soon as she entered this window.. I enquired about the settlement checking service by LEA in mid Aug, hoping for a Aug appointment, but I was advised the next availabl...

Thanks once again mate

Thanks for that info lucapooka, very kind of you.. so il be ok then may i ask you another quick q mate As we dont have any savings, do you think it would be worth going to a jeweller, getting our gold valued and getting a receipt to submiit with the docs for finances, already including 2 years p60s,...

If I was to post our application on Thursday next week which is 15th Sept by special next day delivery, do you think there is enough time for them to take payment and acknowledge our application if the spouse visa expires end of this month ? I have included my debit card details on the form, as cheq...

Ie ni letter which she got a month after coming , Now If I submit a doc in just her name , am I correct to under...

Hi guys If you submit a document which is just in the wifes name (she is the ilr seeker), then the document I have to submit in my name for that time period, does it have to be something around the date of the submitted wifes document ? What is a general rule of thumb ? Would you say the doc in my n...
