Hi everyone,
Thanks in advance for your help.
My wife (a US citizen) is currently applying for a family visa.
In order to satisfy the accommodation requirement, I've already had my property inspected and have a copy of the tenancy agreement.
However, upon asking my letting agent to sign a no objection letter on behalf of my landlord, they refused, stating that my wife would need to be on the tenancy agreement before they could complete the letter.
In order to get her on the tenancy agreement, they want her to go through "referencing", which includes right to rent checks - obviously, she doesn't currently have the right to rent as she doesn't yet have a visa, so she will automatically fail the referencing checks.
So, essentially - we need proof of accommodation so she can get a visa, but if my letting agent stands firm, she can't get proof of accommodation UNTIL she has a visa - it's a bit of a paradox.
Any advice?
