im in US, Wife is in UK, how to get there?

Just to make sure im not missing anything. From what I can tell, my only route into the UK is via Singh, and uprooting my wife and step daughter to Ireland for 6 months. My wife does not meet the financial requirement of 22,000 pounds per year. Is singh our only option? Is there some other way I can...

Yes MP, thats the idea. But she wont move, due to her daughter. So i was thinking of options. For example, if i became a citizen of another EU country, then could i move to the UK, kind of like you are saying with her. I was thinking it might be easier to become a citizen of another EU country than ...

EU inter-marriage question

Not sure how this works, so I have come here to ask. Im an american citizen. How difficult is it for me to become an EU citizen? And if I do become one, can I marry a british citizen? For example, lets say I become a french citizen. Could I then marry someone from the UK? (without all the UK's crap ...

That is what I am gathering. I have already begun the process of looking for a job online, starting with the companies that have had the position open the longest. The road block I am running into is the interview. Which is one of the reasons I will be going over there for 6 months. Finding a job sh...

So you are saying my income doesnt matter at all?

Im talking about both. Im talking about all ways to meet this stupid requirement. One way, is to go over on a visitor visa, scout a job, return to the us, apply for the tier 2, fly back. Another way, is to make 14.3 an hour at least, work for 6 months in the us, then apply for the spousal as the req...

Ok, but I CAN leave the country, apply for the tier 2, and return. Which is what I was trying to clarify. Now then. Im looking over the exact documents supplied to the caseworkers and trying to figure this out. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/policyandlaw/IDIs/chp8-annex/sect...

Well, getting her a better job is out of the question. Shes a personal trainer, and only works 20 hours a week, as shes also a single mother. Also moving her to the states is out of the question, as she cannot remove her daughter from the father, nor would she leave her family. (I have none, so I ha...

Visa switching

If I come over on a visitor visa for 6 months, can I switch to a tier 2 work visa without leaving the country?

For example. I come over for 6 months, but while I am there, I find a company that wants to sponsor me for a job. What do I do?

So if i dont have 62,000 pounds in savings (yeah right, who does?) And she does not make 18.6k per year, i will never be able to apply for a spousal visa, correct? What i COULD do though, is come over, hunt for a job that DOES pay that much and is willing to sponsor me with a work visa, make that am...

Regarding the new financial barrier for families

ok, so the line has been drawn, and its set at 18,600 pounds. This is 29,760 dollars. Questions: 1. Can I split that with my savings? For example, I work 6 months out of the year and earn 15,000 and save every cent. I therefore have 30,000? 2. Do I have to be married first for my future wife to be's...
