The only reason I ask is because there's a question on the form that goes: "Is there any period where you didn't live together, if yes then it asks for a reason." Would it lead to doubts/refusal if I just put: went to visit family etc? I think that question is only in the initial entry clearance form. The renewal FLR doesn't have that question. Your relationship isn't in doubt anymore (genuineness). They just need to know if it's continuing and subsisting.
I just thought WhatsApp chat evidence may show that we've been talking at least during that period apart for 2-3 months? Not required, you're completely overthinking it.

shyamgorasia wrote: ↑Wed Jan 04, 2023 1:16 pmThanks Amazonion and Ticktack. This is the question that's on the flr form for your information:
"Have you lived together since marriage?, If no provide details."
So if she went abroad for couple of months, I would have to say no here right? this is what I was referring to. Wouldn't they doubt and wonder why she spent that long apart from partner?
Or would this not matter? It wouldnot matter, however it does not have to be so so lengthy that it brings to question if the relationship is subsisting. Cohabitation evidence should also be generated at such period.
Thanks

OK thanks.shyamgorasia wrote: ↑Wed Jan 04, 2023 1:42 pmAlso had a different question On a separate note, regarding financial combinations:
E. G. Given, I earn more than the 18,600 income, If I provided 6 months employment payslips and statements but 3 months I took unpaid leave, would I need to combine cash savings with this, if so how much would I need to show in cash savings?
Or can I just provide 12month payslips so they can see I didn't receive a salary for 3 months, but still make above the limit anyway even without them 3 months?
Thanks
Shyam

Thanks CR001. Are you able to shed any light on above issues I'm having?shyamgorasia wrote: ↑Sat May 06, 2023 4:44 pm
On another note, I'm having few issues with uploading certain docs on ukvcas.
It keeps moaning and say try a different device or browser which I have. I've even recreated the pdf and it's still saying it. Rest of my pdfs have uploaded with no problems, I have 7 documents yet to upload which is causing problems.
They're not oversized at all or have special characters in the file name. Only character I have used is underscore on file names and it's worked for the rest of my files.
Any help? I've messaged ukvcas but wanted to see if anyone else faced similar issues and had solutions?
Thanks
Shyam

Address any error or oversight in a cover note and upload.shyamgorasia wrote: ↑Sat May 06, 2023 9:19 pmI think I tried that, I'll try again. Thanks.
I just realised a mistake I've made on the application under The Immigration section. My partner was born in India so I've included this and the dates from and to under the section that asked "Have you lived anywhere outside the Uk including your country of birth?"
However I forgot to also add that she lived in Kenya (in which she is citizen and has Kenyan passport) as she moved there afterwards.
Will this be an issue? I did put the reason that she lived in India becusse she was born there and moved to Kenya afterwards at age **. I've also put the reference number to her initial spouse visa application we made, not sure if that would help?
Getting a bit worried now.
Kind regards
Shyam
