UK spouse visa extension - checklist

Post by Premiso » Sat May 09, 2020 7:27 pm

Hoping you guys could help with the latest visa requirements. I've been through the various forums and want to me sure i'm not missing anything. I was looking to submit the following documents for my wife's UK visa spouse extension after being in the UK for 33 months:

Personal documents
  • Cover letter
    Wife's original passport
    Photocopy of my passport (do i need to submit my original passport?)
    2 x passport photos of wife
    1 x passport photo of myself
    IHS number
Relationship documents
  • Marriage certificate
    Photos over the past 33 months
    Holiday tickets
    Correspondence over a 33 month period - will include 4 documents in wife's name, 6 in my name and 6 in joint names
Accommodation documents
  • Land registry document showing flat in my name
    Latest mortgage statement
    Do i need a property report stating number of bedrooms given no else lives with else in a 2 bed flat?
English language requirement
  • Level A2 from Trinity college
Financial requirement
  • Bank statement for last 6 monyhs
    6 months of payslips
    Letter from HR confirming electronic payslips, earnings and employment status
Am I missing anything?

In your case it won't be needed.

You seems to have all relevant supporting documents. However, again make sure that your cohabitation evidences covers the last 2 years and are from 3 different sources. Also the beauty of online application is that you won't miss to provide any key information as it won't move forward but conversely most often it asks many weired information/documents. But just follow the form & its checklist then you will be fine.

Can I ask you if you need s copy of all pages of sponsor's passport?
I have extended my visa and they only asked the evidence of British citizen, either passport or birth certificate. My friend is in process now and she asked to provide cope of all pages of her husband.

Usually the biometric page would suffice but is she was told specifically to provide ALL pages then she should accede.
