Changes to the minimum income and adequate maintenance requirement
If you’ve experienced a loss of income due to coronavirus, we will consider employment income for the period immediately before the loss of income due to coronavirus, provided the requirement was met for at least 6 months up to March 2020.
If your salary has reduced because you’re furloughed, we will take account of your income as though you’re earning 100% of your salary.
If you’re self-employed, a loss of annual income due to coronavirus between 1 March 2020 and 31 July 2020 will generally be disregarded, along with the impact on employment income from the same period for future applications.
If among other things you meet the financial requirement to sponsor wife and 3 children i.e. £27,200 and required evidence available then you can proceed with the application.Needo wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 11:41 amHello Dear,
I tried to find the answer to this specific situation but I could not find any related information. Please help me with the link if there's any.
My earnings are more than what I am required to sponsor my wife and my 3 children from Pakistan. After the lock down due to COVID-19 pandemic my employer furloughed me as the space in office was not enough further more the business was not doing well during this period.
However my employer was claiming JRS (£2500/month) and was paying me the rest (£3000) from his pocket. The furlough is over and I am back to work from yesterday. Now my question is can I sponsor my wife and 3 children from Pakistan. The minimum earning required to sponsor them is £27500 (Rounded figure) and my earning is much over that. So can I sponsor them and apply for their entry clearance visas? I am employed for over 9 months and have got over 6 months payslips.
I look forward to your comments and thank you in advance for your time for reading my question and situation.

Noting that you just returned to work yesterday being the first Monday in August 2020, the period HO gave leeway for is 1st March - 31 July 2020 so you may want to speak with your employer and address it in the letter you will be issued in support of your application.
This is NOT required for a spouse visa or child visa.6. SU07 form
I have got settled status here in the UK and I am filling in the Appendix FM Spouse and Appendix FM Child forms (please correct me if I have chosen the wrong forms) to sponsor my wife and 3 children.
Ideally either synch the date of commencement of tenancy with the date of application or apply when it will start. Also surveyor report won't be needed if there won't be any unrelated adult living in the property. You will also need the noc letter from the letting agent/landlord.
Yes

Nothing can be predicted for sure but in most cases never heard any issue under such arrangements.Needo wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 4:34 pmHi Seagulseagul wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 12:47 pmIdeally either synch the date of commencement of tenancy with the date of application or apply when it will start.

The agreement is signed on the 29th of July. Do you think potentially this can be an issue?
If you mean passport then yes.
If you mean previous travel history for the applicants = Yes
Hi GUysAmazonianX wrote: ↑Thu Aug 06, 2020 2:53 pmIf you mean previous travel history for the applicants = Yes
If you mean tentative date when you want them to travel to UK = Yes
If you mean flight bookings or ticket for the applicants to travel to UK = No
If none of the above, make your question clearer.
There is a glitch in the system that prevents paying for child IHS as you experience it will state that children are exempted. Carry on with your application and submit etc. After HO receives the application and at certain points when it is being treated by ECO/CW, they will contact and send you a link through which you will make the IHS payment for all the children involved.Needo wrote: ↑Sun Aug 09, 2020 1:10 amHi Dear,
I am very sorry to ask this question.
I was on the page to pay IHS for my child using Appendix FM Child form and when i wanted to pay it showed he is exempted from IHS. They give the IHS reference no but did not take any payment.
Is this normal or am I making any mistake?
I paid IHS for my wife who is applying at the same time using Appendix FM Partner form.
I have got 2 more children for whom I need to pay IHS as well. So I stopped the application at this stage for them and decided to seek forum's opinion.
I look forward to your advise and thankful for your cooperation and understanding.

People are reporting difficulties in getting appointments every where including within the UK. It is not localized to Islamabad.Needo wrote: ↑Tue Aug 11, 2020 7:12 amGood Morning Dear Members,
I just wanted to ask if any one else is also struggling to get bio metric appointment at Islamabad Pakistan? On the VFS global website once you reach the appointment section it shows there are no appointments available at the chosen center due to the impact of COVID-19.
Is this only happening to the center in Islamabad or over all the UKVI is not taking on any new applications hence there are no appointments any where?
Thank you in advance and look forward to your comments.
With reference to your advise all the questions in Appendix II are related to the spouse/partner and there are no questions asking about the Father Son relation. Or should I leave it all blank after I select the option for "As the child of a parent who is applying for entry clearance as a partner or the child who is applying to join their parent who is already in the UK and has been granted limited leave as partner granted under the Immigration Rules in force on 09 July 2012" on Appendix II.CR001 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 15, 2020 9:42 pmAppendix 1 is ONLY relevant for a child when BOTH parents have ILR and the child is applying for ILE, as the ukvi website clearly states.
For a child applying with one parent for an entry clearance visa, it would be appendix 2 for each of them if the financial information has not been included or completed in the online application form.
Also please advise on the above, I have filled up the online form and have given them all the information.
