1 - you really are over-thinking this. This section is about the details of the applicant and their permanent address / contact. You are the sponsor. Just add wifes address and number, they require her contact details if they need to contact her in Bangladesh. If you provide your details it wont mean that they will contact you instead of her. If they need to contact you they will use details provided in sponsors section.

4 - place of issue will be UK and authority is HMPO if passport is issued after 2016. Once again you are over-thinking this. They really only care about the passport number as that's all they need to find all details about you.
Thank you brother for your reply - it really clears me now.

Can I have your suggestions on the following please, appreciate your time.

1) As part of evidence of relationship, I am providing WhatsApp chat history- mostly they are in Bengali – is it necessary to translate the conversation?

2) My payslips are all online, is it a must for the payslips to be printed on company headed paper? Or, if I print this on plain paper and then get this sealed by HR (which has company name and address) – would this be acceptable?

3) I have been employed by same employer for the past few years, but my salary changed (increased) from 01/10/2018. - does that mean I have to declare past 12 months salary/ payslips?
- This is because appendix 2 question 3.12 asks "if the sponsor has been in employment with the same employer earning the same amount continuously for past 6 months" - in my case I was not earning the same amount although I was above the threshold of £18,600 even before the salary change.

Can you please tell me in my case if I will have to show 12 months payslips?

Sincerely appreciate your time.

Thank you

Shah

1 - no, you both are bengalis so obviously you'll speak in bangla. There are no rules which states we need to speak in english only. Just take screenshots of calls and messages.

2 - payslip needs to be printed, stamped with company logo and also a letter from employer to confirm that payslips are genuine

3 - you write no then write whatever you salary was in the last 6 months prior to application date. For example if you apply before 01/04/2019 you write the old salary amount. The salary increment can be explained in employers letter.

Very nice and streamlined. Include a bill in your name such as council tax or utility, wedding card if you have it.

Hi !

Can anyone please tell me where to pay the priority fees ? If it can pay in online or we need to pay it in sylhet vfs along with application fees?

If anyone recently applied for priority spouse visa please help! ...

Hi hun we recently submitted our application for my husband. We went the priority route aswell. The priority fee is paid when he goes for his biometrics along with his fee. He needs to state that he wants priority.

Hi

It’s been 10 days since I sent my application off to Sheffield. Any ideas how long it should take? Ease of mind really.

I’ve checked, I’m receiving my documents back (I made two bundles). It’s only been 12 days. I’ve not received a confirmation email?
