Hello,
Thank you for your reply.
My wife entered the UK along with me (28 Mar 2010). I am applying on the form SET (O) because I am currently on Tier 2 ICT work visa and my wife is a dependant. In the SET (O) form, it is mentioned as
"If you have a spouse or civil partner listed in section 2 of this application form who is applying at the same time as you, please provide documentary evidence of cohabitation since you were last granted leave (up to a maximum of two years). Evidence provided should cover the whole period and be in the form of official letters or documents, addressed to yourself and your spouse."
It does not specify the number of documentary evidences to be given. Since the evidence has to be for a maximum period of 2 years, I was wondering whether I can use my Council Tax Bill which is dated from 21-August-2013. Since I have the appointment on June 29, do I need to wait till 21-August-2015 for booking an appointment to show that the evidence is for full 2 years (I will have to reschedule it from the current date of June 29 if that is the case)?
Another point to note is that they are asking for documentary evidence of cohabitation since I was last granted leave. We were last granted leave on a Tier 2 ICT extension on 05-Feb-2014 and it is valid until 22-Feb-2016. If I take this point into account, it seems I satisfy the cohabitation evidence proof (since my Council Tax Bill is from 21-Aug-2013).
Is this sufficient or am I missing something here? Please advise.
Many thanks again in advance for your help on this.
Regards,
Sidhartha
