Non-English characters

Hello All,

We just got married two weeks ago and my wife , she is Turkish, is living in Turkey. We will apply for her spouse visa ( I am British). she passed English exam A1 and I meet finance requirements but next month I am changing my job. ( So I will apply under Category B)

The thing is that beginning of March I am starting a new permanent job and It seems during the application they ask me to put payslips from my current employer ( at that time my new employer). If we apply during March , obviously I dont have any payslips from my new employer until the end of March. Here is the line from application form :

--quote---
Payslips covering any period of salaried employment (current and previous) in the period of 12 months prior to the date of application - for XXXXX for ZZZZZ employer
--unquote--

I can provide my contract and letter from my new employer, would it be enough or shall I just wait until end of March. Could you please advise me ?

Also do you know how long further I can pick an appointment date after I pay the fee. Other solution would be for me to apply now, select an appointment for first of April and by then I will have my first payslip from my new employer.

What do you think ? Would you please advise ?


Thanks and Regards

Ideally if you can then don't join the new job but join later when the application gets processed and apply under category A. Alternatively join the new job and wait for the first month payslip then add 11 months of payslips from previous employer and apply under category B. First get all things in hands before applying because anything dated after the date of application won't be considered. Also without submitting the online application you can't get appointment.

Hello All,

My wife has a speeding ticket in another country and during her visa application ( family member - spouse)
there is a question (below) abur driving offences. I am not sure speeding ticket falls under that category. As it was a small monetary penalty for speeding ticket. It was not a disqualification.

Shall we say yes to that ? IF we say yes, will they refuse her visa application ?

No harm in mentioning it with little clarification. It won't affect anything.

Hello All,

I am confused with Non-English characters on visa application form.
During application form (Spouse Visa) it says "enter your name as shown on your passport" but my name has "Ü". As far as I remember earlier you were supposed to put your name using english letters only.
So shall I use "Ü" or "U" ? Could you please advise ?

"Enter your name, as shown in your current passport or travel document. (Required)"

Thanks a lot !!!

Usually the bio page of the passport holds both version (local & English). You need to supply all information in English.
