Jaani How much do you need to show in your account or earn for sponsoring your spouse from abroad? As long as you can show u have funds of £105.95 a week after paying for housing and council tax and not having public fundings you should be fine. There are speculations that amount earned may change i...

Hi Bunny 7783 Spiritz, Where did you apply for the visa from? Hubby applied at Bangalore. Do they count the days from when it is submitted? I would say start counting from the 14th Feb in ur case, I might be wrong but I think they only update the online status or send sms as and when they seem its f...

Hi All,

Just thought I'd let you know that our appeal has been allowed. It took some time to sink in that it was all finally over.

I hope those of you that are still waiting recieve good news very soon.

Harv I do not have the Council Tax bills and any other bills in the house on my name. Although my Bank statement, mobile phone bills have my name and address. Do you think that would be enough as an address proof? I have other documents that show my name and address - Tenancy agreement, letter from ...

@harv Im assuming that are getting married using the special marriage act of 1954 to get married. You mentioned that ur going over this week and getting married the next so just mentioned notice thing so u have covered everything. As for the NOC it is a requirement but I was never asked for it I gue...

Hi Harv,
U do not need a NOC or CNI to get married to an indian national. However to register a court marriage in India you do have to give notice of marriage. Have you done this?

Hi Nosah,
U deff dont need a TB test done when applying from India.

Thanks for the info Chimpee.
Hubby refused as ECO states inadequate finances. The ECO got some things wrong on the refusal which we have corrected in appeal. Hope we hear something soon.

Hi, Have I missed anything thought they dont do interviews anymore.

Does the genuine job offer also sent in not count towards anything. Pls help...

ANYONE!!

Batleykhan: I get the impression that he does not feel that the money you have shown is adequate and enough for you to live on. You not working and no guarantee that your hubby will be able to find job on arrival in UK means you have no steady incoming coming in, and that you may eventually have to ...

Visa was refused on the ECO not being satisfied that our financezz were adequate. I really think the ECO has over looked savings account as this has not mentioned this in the decision made. I have had to leave work due to personal reasons explained this fully on application (backed up with relevant ...

i got an email saying i would have a reply to the email within 5 working days still no letter still no email , i hope its overturned.

InshAllah you will have a positive outcome very soon.

Thanks Batley khan for your reply: "The average time it takes to get a hearing date is around 6 months.If by any chance you are successful it could take another 6-8 weeks before the visa is stamped in the passport. However there is a slight possibility that upon review by an ECM, might overtur...

Hi all,
Like many of you I am also waiting for either a reconsideration or court date. I have not heard anything from them since the letter of acknowledgement, so was going to call them. Should I?
Is there anything I can do to speed up the process (prob not but worth a question).
