Oh also i want to add my dad will be the one sponsoring my husband not me. He's sponsored a few relatives before so he knows what he's doing and none of them have overstayed either, will this matter or will it not make a difference?

Yes we have payslips/bank statements from december/january

Is there a thread on this forum where I can see what is good evidence that I can submit to show my husband will return after the 6 months? He has a job which can give him a letter saying his job is still available to him when he returns, He also have the power of attorney to a lot of my uncles prope...

I understand what you are saying, i dont think your being too harsh but whats the point of having a family visiting visa if they think the spouse isn't going to return? They should just cancel that visa then so obviously there must be some way that a husband can come visit his wife, or vice versa. M...

could an admin close this thread please, we've decided not to rush anything and our solicitor is helping us out with everything so id rather close this thread and concentrate on looking at a visiting visa for the time being, thank you

He basically has his parents and 2 sisters over in pakistan and he has a job aswell full time, he's the only one who earns a salary for his house at the moment as his brother just got granted a working visa in saudi so he's over there. Would a letter from his employee stating that he has a job when ...

We would have no intention of letting him overstay. We've already been to dubai for our honeymoon which he had to apply a visiting visa for so they can see from there that he didnt overstay that time which is good. Im hoping to do things this way no, visiting visa first so he can get adjusted and st...

Hello, I want to ask this question. It looks really unlikely that i will be able to apply before the new rules happen for my husband visa who lives in Pakistan. I was wondering i know it'll take me a year to show the salary, but in that year before i apply for him would I be able to apply for a visi...

Also i want to ask when you fill out the form things that you have to submit with your application there will be a question on there asking something about the english test.. what would i write?

It's just a habit of mine of over analysing things, i just turned 20 maybe thats why! Lol
My dad is doing everything so i'll tell him this tonight and hopefully he'll agree and just get the solicitor to do everything and send off documents

I'm probably going to miss it anyway because we dont even know for definate if he has passed or failed the speaking test, if he fails and i still send off for the application then we could get in trouble because at the bottom of the certificate it has a date of when the certificate was issued :/

Some of you have been saying to just send the documents without the certificate for his speaking test.. when he books and goes in for his appointment won't they check the documents or ask if he has all the required certificates? If he lies and says yes then if it comes to we have to appeal wont they...

yep i just seen that now, i dont understand why my solicitor is saying that my salary has to be 22,400, i'll have to show him that, maybe he's confused

I also wanted to ask would my salary have to be 18,600 or 22,400? My child will be born in the UK, will have a british nationality as I am british, im only applying for husband and it says on the UKBA site that if your sponsoring a child its 22,400 but my solicitor is saying to me that because i hav...

I live in the UK, was born here have a british passport. My husband is in Pakistan, i married him last year. I'm currently pregnant, due to give birth in the next 5 weeks. What i want to ask is after 9th July according to the new rules would my salary have to be £18,600 or £22,400? Everywhere i read...

If you apply before 9/7 and get refused and appeal and win, then the old rules apply to you.However if you loose at appeal, you will then have to reapply again and the new rules will apply to you. My advise is to apply without certificate and get refused and appeal.That would be much better than yo...

Also i wanted to ask if i apply without the certificate (but he passes and gets the certificate late thats why i cant include this in documents) and they refuse visa because of this, if i appeal would it have to be according to the new rules or the rules that are in place now before 9th july?

yeh the new laws will be a big problem for me, im not even earning anywhere near the 22k they're asking for, plus im due to give birth in the next 5 weeks and won't be able to work again for a good few months after that which make just make everything even longer. I guess there's nothing more we can...

Another day gone and still no results.. i want to apply before 9th (so last day to apply will be 6th on friday next week) even if he gets his results next week how am i going to send all the documents to pakistan in time? I have everything here my solicitor is saying that to prevent wasting our mone...

He took the test in Islamabad, i rang the UK head office today (26th june) and the guy said it hasnt come up on the system yet and to get husband to phone tomorrow or thursday. Yeh he's been ringing the islamabad office every day, i think they're starting to get annoyed with him, ive also rung the s...

Salaam :) I'm new here as really would like some help regarding the new rules etc.. Basically we have all the documents required, solicitor just needs to organise them which will take about 2 days then I can send them off to Pakistan. However, my husband had to retake his speaking test from City and...
