flr(m) fund requirement under old rules before 9th july ?

[z18runway]

dear members,
I too understand new rules on or after 9th July 2012 that one has to maintain £18600 to sponsor a dependent.

my query is my dependent fall under old rules, so what is the fund requirement if i have to sponsor her as a partner for ILR holder.

In December I am going to apply for ILR under Long Res. category, while filling flr(m) form for my dependent, how much money should i show as earning ?

In that case you don't understand as it's not necessary to maintain that amount. You merely need to have an annual salary that amounts to this figure.

Thanks Luca, so just to clarify ur salary is not important. However, is there a funding requirement in that case for FLR M if pre July 12 rules apply?

clear answer please lucapooka,

and i will make my point more clear. My per annum earning is £16,925. Will this be ok ?

new rules £18600 , so old rules £ (how much) ?

The maintenance requirements under the pre 9th July rules require you to have at least the amount that a couple on income support would receive after your rent and council tax have been deducted from your income.

Greenie, it talks abt an amount £482.95 per calendar month for a couple (no children). But it is still not clear HOW MUCH one needs to show? I mean for HOW many months? Are u saying that if I show £483 in my bank acc maintained for the last 1 month it is OK? Can u pls clarify?

Also if old rules apply then in the FLR M form under Section 7A what should I fill? Bcos tht talks abt the £18.6k income and it does not give u any option

Please correct me if i am wrong, according to my understanding you donot need to fill 7A just answer 7.1 yes and move on to 7B as it clearly mention in the guidance notes that ''you need to meet the financial requirment if you made your first application to enter or remain here as a partner after 9th july 2012''
when you fill 7B there is question that is your sponsor working in the UK answer 'yes' if yes, what is their pay each month after tax and other deduction.(you need to mention ur partner salary here)

Dear moderator please correct me if i am sharing anything wrong as i am appling soon and it be helpfull to know right thing. thanks

My answer above is not guess. Follow the link provided in my post above. No one can tell you based on your salary alone whether you meet the requirements. It depends on your housing costs and how many children you have etc. The relevant calculations you need to make are available in the link above.
