OK, so now that's it's almost all together, I will write a list of what we are submitting in case of any errors or omissions!
Thanks in advance:-)
My Husband's documents:
1. Completed application form VAF4a (and visa fee)
2. Passport
3. 2 x Passport photos (with name written on back)
4. ID
5. Translated birth certificate
6. Translated military certificate
7. Six months bank statements and bank letter (in English)
8. English Certificate
(and photocopies of everything)
Do we need certified copies of everything (passport, ID) or just photocopies?
Joint documents:
9. Our original marriage certificate
10. Our translated marriage certificate
11. Photograph album with selection of photos from all our trips and wedding/honeymoon
11. Mobile phone bills (two years since we met) with txt and phone calls
12. Skype call history for almost two years
13. Screenshots of inbox with emails from each other over two years
14. Postcards my husband has sent me
(and photocopies of each)
My documents: the sponsor
14. Six months original bank statements (personal)
15. Savings bank statement (only one as issued annually)
16. P60
17. Dividends vouchers (as company director)
18. Notarised company accounts (one year only?)
19. Copy of Company Registration Document from Companies House
20. Six months original company bank statements
* the most recent bank statement will not be available so I plan to get a print out certified by the ban so it has up-to-the most recent transactions. Will this be OK?
21. Land Registry Document
22. Council Property Inspection Report for Entry Clearnance Officer, confirming that only I live in my property and there is room for my husband.
23. Proof that I live in my flat: Utility Bills and Council Tax letter of confirmation
23. Letter from me stating: who I am, that I am married to my husband, where we met, when we married, how we stay in contact, how we plan to live together, why we choose UK, that I own a property for us to stay in...what my husband plans to do for work...anything else?
24. Photos of my property
25. Certified copy of my passport
26. Certified copy of my birth certificate
27. Copies of electronic flight tickets for each trip to visit my husband
28. As my income isn't the same every month I am also including:
A spreadsheet which shows income and expenditure for 8 months and the monthly average which covers all outgoings and some spare
29. A letter from my parents which says they will provide additional support if we require it, accommodation and financial
30. A bank letter from my parents which shows that they can afford to do this
31. Photos of my parents property which show plenty spare rooms.
Is there anything we are missing? Or anything we shouldn't be putting in?
I have a final question. My husband was working with the same company for the last two years but got made redundant. He has a trade so he went back to being self-employed doing that for the last month/six weeks. His ID has the previous employer on it, but he is no longer with them. Would it be sufficient to explain this in the additional information section? Will it be an issue as clearly he is intending to come and work here once settled with me anyway?
THANKS!
