Flr m visa

Post by badayuni92 » Thu Oct 24, 2019 8:41 pm

I am applying for my wife's flr m visa.

Unfortunately I did not plan properly and I have only just realised you need letters to prove cohabiting.

We have no letters in joint names.

My question is do we each need to supply 2 years worth of documents from 6 different sources?

Does each source need to cover 2 years? So for example does each source need say 3 letters per year, so for each source do I need 6 letters to cover 2 years

Or is the requirement evenly spaced out letters from 6 sources to cover the period. So could I use one letter from 6 different sources which covers 2 years?

Letters from 3-6 different sources for 2 years, spread evenly for every 3 to 4 months.

She cannot travel out of the UK if she has an application pending with Home Office. Her application will be considered withdrawn if she leaves the UK.

Thanks for all your help

With regards to proof of english I want to use the naric service to get my wife's degree approved by them. However she doesn't have the moi letter. The certificate does say the medium was English and she has the transcript of results. Will they accept it?

If not does she have to pass the below course

A2 SELT – GESE Grade 3
You must pass a Secure English Language Test (SELT) in at least CEFR level A2 in Speaking and Listening for:

Further Leave to Remain (visa extension), required two and a half years after passing an A1 test.

You only need one which is A2 but if you pass B1 now then it will cover A2 and also will meet the requirement when you will apply ILR without needing to pass again another test.

Then try to find a free appointment, but they are rare these days as others book them when available.

the price varies depending on the centre (core, enhanced etc) and the service you choose at each.

Hi I was wondering If you could help me. I am uploading my documents however I dont have a p60

At the end of the tax year April 5th 2019 I was not employed and claiming universal credit which is not taxable so no p60 is available. My current job started on April 7th 2019

Do I need to write a letter explaining this or can I just leave out the p60

You may leave out the P60. It is optional.

Even if you have P60 but still it is advisable to not attach it as it doesn't shows the wages figures relevant for visa purposes.

No, it won't be for not submitting P60. No letter explaining that needed.

Yes she can as she is protected under section 3C of the immigration rules.
