Hello,
Any advice on this matter would be much appreciated.
I am a british citizen and UK Passport Holder. My Wife is from India and currently on a tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa living in the UK and has about 18 months left.
I would like to change her visa status as I will be in a position to do so regarding the financial requirements come april next year. I would like to do this as it would relieve the stress and uncertainty attached to this tier 1 visa, it would make travelling out of the country less stressful and it would free her up to do pretty much any work she likes.
Whilst she has made some money working on her own businesses, she does not financially or otherwise meet the excessive full requirements of tier one renewal when the time comes hence my desire to switch visa as it makes sense.
I have a few questions.
1. Is it a normal procedure and relatively simple to switch visa's as stated in the title?
2. When we come to apply in april using my financial's as evidence of supported funds, will she have to also present evidence and/or get investigated as she currently has an entrepreneur visa and has certain expectations placed upon her? At this point I wish to solely use my financial's as evidence, fully aware that we could use both, preferring to keep it as simple as possible and not open any unnecessary boxes.
3. Will her involvement in switching her visa be the same regardless of what visa she is currently on as it is I who will be the sponsor and as such the evidence falls upon myself.
Any information or thoughts would be great as I am simply trying to get a clear idea of what is and what is not possible or advisable right now.
Many thanks for you time!
