Yea they do, I know she is not allowed to a public funds, we not getting job seekers allownces.Casa wrote:...when you apply for her FMR(M) extension? Yes, if you're not earning £18,600 a year she won't qualify. You would have to apply for a FLR(FP) (partner route) visa which will be a longer route to ILR. Do the Council know your wife has no recourse to Public funds?
I wasn't referring to job seekers allowance. Assuming you don't have any children, did the council grant you housing benefits as a single person? Do you understand that your wife won't qualify for FLR(M) if you are only earning just over £500 per month? Benefits can't be included in the calculation.racim wrote:Yea they do, I know she is not allowed to a public funds, we not getting job seekers allownces.Casa wrote:...when you apply for her FMR(M) extension?

I was granted housing an Benefit because we are a married couple, when I made the claim they checked what sort of visa she got they made a copy of her passport, so do I have to follow FLR (fp) route !!Casa wrote:I wasn't referring to job seekers allowance.

No idea I show them all document and they made a copies, they helping me out towards my rent.CR001 wrote:You should be getting housing benefit as a SINGLE PERSON and the single person rate.
Yes, we all know what housing benefit pays for. The council housing benefit people are not immigration advisors. You need to check that you are only getting single person rate, which will probably be much less than you rent.racim wrote:No idea I show them all document and they made a copies, they helping me out towards my rent.CR001 wrote:You should be getting housing benefit as a SINGLE PERSON and the single person rate.

How did you meet the financial requirement for her initial spouse visa?
You will have to look at FLR(FP).

You alone are entitled to assistance with your rent as if you were a single person. Even an FLR(FP) application would be at risk of refusal if your wife has been included in the calculation.
Ask them "Have you calculated my housing benefit for a married couple or for me alone?".racim wrote:Casa wrote:It's essential that you check with the Council Benefits office that housing benefit hasn't been calculated for a married couple.

Thx casa sorry to be a nightmare what about the English language requirement ! I can't see that you need to provide any certificate when you apply as a partner !! Is that right ! ThxCasa wrote:Yes. £500
Hi casa thx for your replay, but according to 23. English requirement A1 level is only required to people who are applying as parent of child ... Not for the partner of family members living in the uk ( FLP )Casa wrote:Yes, A1 level from the list of approved English tests.
