Re: Sponsor reliant on public funds

Thanks Amber. You say the claim must be joint, does that apply once he is here? For the purpose of the application how do we set all this out? Can you also advise on how much detail they will need to prove a genuine relationship. Do they need to show, for example, Skype conversations from when they ...

Re: Sponsor reliant on public funds

He is Tunisian. I am concerned that my daughter'a income support will increase if he joins her, am I right to worry about this?

Re: Sponsor reliant on public funds

Thank you Amber. Using these calculations my daughter should be able to prove adequate maintenance. However, can you please explain how we can find out if her husband coming here would trigger additional funds and therefore meet a refusal? Or have I misunderstood the paragraphs? I am really concerne...

Sponsor reliant on public funds

My daughter claims PIP, as well as Income Support, Housing Benefit and CTC. Due to her disability entitlement, she has to prove adequate maintenance to enable her husband to join her in the UK. However, according to paragraphs 6a to 6c of the immigration rules, if the sponsor is entitled to an incre...

Re: Proving adequate maintenance

Thank you Amber. I'm sorry for posting but I did try to find the information on the Home Office page, but thought that all of the changes had not been posted yet. Do you know if the Government have proposed such changes in the bear future?
Thank you.

Removal of 'exemption to financial requirements'

Hi.
I have heard today that as of this month you can no longer claim exemption to financial requirements due to claiming DLA or PIP. Does anyone know if there is any truth in this? Apparently it is in the new immigration rules.
Thank you.

Thank you so much, that is a weight off my mind. I did think it a bit unfair to expect someone who"s never lived in the UK to attain the higher level. He may achieve it anyway, but it's good to know that he doesn't have to. Thanks again for your help.

Does anyone have any advice on the new English language test? Are there any books available which might help? Thanks.

Thank you for the offer of help with a covering letter. My daughter isn't ready to submit the application yet, but when she is I would be very grateful for your help. Do you know what would happen if the Government either remove PIP as an exemption or if my daughter"s PIP claim ends? If at that...

Thanks for replying. The applicant is from Tunisia. With regards to savings, would my daughter need to hold them for a minimum of 6 months and would it make a difference if my daughter could get a few hours work per week? This would be difficult as there are only certain jobs she could do due to her...

Proving adequate maintenance

Hi, I am new on here and just sent a private message to someone, before reading the rules, so I apologise for that! I am desperate for an end to the nightmare my daughter is going through just to have her husband with her and her family. However, I have just been made aware that a person claiming PI...
