Payslip payment dates

[PeterJam]

Dear All,

My wife visa extension is coming up and could do with some help:

1) My wife meets the financial requirement herself and gets payslips monthly (Cat A). The payslips show taxable pay, income tax, employee NIC, net pay and other referenaces but does not show Employers NI on payslip. Does this matter?

2) She entered UK on 13/05/2018, I've counted 30 months and worked out we can apply after 13th November 2020. Have I got this correct?

Thank for taking the time to help.

It's fine to apply with the payslips as they are.

2) She entered UK on 13/05/2018, I've counted 30 months and worked out we can apply after 13th November 2020. Have I got this correct?

Thank for taking the time to help.

Yes. The window to apply opens 28 days before reaching 30 months residence counting from date of entry to the UK on the visa. It closes on the date the visa expires.

thank you so much

Hi all,

My wife is applying for her extension visa this month and we have just noticed payslip payment dates do not match the dates the payments sent for every month.

Payment period 2 payment date on slip 05/06/20 date wage received 08/06/20 wrong

Payment period 3 payment date on slip 05/07/20 date received wage 05/07/20 correct

Payment period 4 payment date on slip 05/08/20 date wage received 04/08/20 wrong

Payment period 5 payment date on slip 05/09/20 date wage received 07/09/20 wrong

Payment period 6 payment date on slip 05/10/20 date wage received 05/10/20 correct

Payment period 7 payment date on slip 05/11/20 date wage received 05/11/20 correct

Would this be a problem and if so how should we ask the employer to explain in there employment letter?

Also her start date at this job was 05/05/20 and she has 6 payslips so we are ok to use category A if we apply on 20th November.

All above seems immaculate and satisfactory with no whiff of any mistake because the date of the generation of payslip & its receipt always slightly remain incongruent than actually receiving the cleared funds (wages) in account.

Yes you can apply under category A with the above mentioned dates of job commencement.

[PeterJam]

Thank you so much

Good morning everyone,

We submitted and done the biometric appointment last week (extension visa) and have just noticed that we forgot my middle name (partner) on the main application form and i have not put my middle name on the declaration or consent 2 form. Will this affect the application? And is there anything we can do at this point?

I feel so stupid for making a small mistake and hope somebody can offer some advice.

If you haven't had submitted the biometrics then you could have addressed it in a covering letter. However, still most likely the new visa would be issued in line with the name showing on your old BRP card and most importantly on your passport.

[PeterJam]

Thank you for your reply I but it’s not the applicant has made the mistake it is the partner.

On the current partner section of the form the middle name is missing from given names.

The declaration for spouses also does not include the middle name.

And the consent part 2 does not include the middle name.

My wife (the applicant with brp card) has done her name correctly.

No issue

Thank you for your swift reply

Hi all,

Sorry just noticed another mistake.

It asks if this is the first time I have applied for a partner route, or an extension, with my current partner.

Because it is worded confusingly on their website by saying or extension we have answered yes by mistake.

Will this matter? Our extension has already been submitted.

Thanks all!

[Korekt]

Why do you believe answering "yes" is a mistake?

[PeterJam]

I saw someone put online:

You are right the answer is no as you already applied for spouse visa with the same partner

[seagul]

It asks if this is the first time I have applied for a partner route, or an extension, with my current partner.

Usually some of the text for this questions also comes in brackets such as (including following the grant of leave as entry clearance ). Most often it is replied by yes.

[PeterJam]

The exact wording used is:

Is this the first time you have applied for a partner route, or an extension, with your current partner (including as a fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner)?

This is the first extension but we have done spouse visa previously. I feel like that it’s worded to confuse.

[Korekt]

The question can be misleading as some of their questions are.

Do not worry, your answer will not impact negatively on the application.

[PeterJam]

Thank you that’s a big relief

You may find another option probably at number 2 "additional extension as partner" which also would be very appropriate.

[PeterJam]

Not sure if this is what you mean, the question after that one is:

Please choose the reason you are applying for an extension, this includes if you are switching to a partner visa from another type.

I answered

First extension as a partner (following an initial period of entry as a partner, or as a fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner of a settled person)

Selecting this option is also fine. Don't get confuse with the wording which keeps on changing the same previous member said too.

[PeterJam]

Thank you, hopefully good news soon

Hi all,

I’m panicking again, we saw on Facebook group someone asking question and it made us notice another mistake.

On the question

“ Have you previously lived in a country outside the UK including your country of birth?”

We answered no but my wife lived in thailand since birth and moved here 2018.

Will this affect our application?

Many mistakes, feeling so stressed.

Thanks for any help.

No issue as it wouldn't be classified as misrepresentation of your circumstances.
