HALP "Switch from Fiance Visa to FLR(M)"

Post by fox2005eng » Sun Aug 19, 2012 6:15 pm

Hi everyone,

I have Granted Fiance visa last may 2012 from Egypt. I'm in the UK at the moment, as my wedding will be soon in august.

However I have a few Question regarding switching from Fiance to FLR(M)

as I know that I'm not subject to the new rules, because I have granted entry clearance based on the old rules that prior to 9 July 2012 if I'm not wrong. so now

1- The form only that I have found on UKBA website for FLR(M) is just for applications made on or after 9 July. the new version 2, so it it ok to use it or I have to use the old one ?

2- I have booked a premium service (Apply in person) in august as well, so do I need to complete the form online or it doesn't matter ?

3- What is documents are required for the FLR(M), is it same like Fiance one ?

4- is the sponsorship still exist in my case ?

5- Regarding the financial "bank statement", how old should it be, and how much savings I should have in my account as well, where neither me or my wife are working.

6- on the FLR(M) new Version v2 what do I have to write in section 7A (financial requirements), Do I have leave it all blank?
as at the beginning of the section there is no option or any kind of question that tells you to skip this section or to go to next section if you have granted entry clearance before July 2012, where the FLR(M) guidance shows that this section does not apply to my case.

I'm so confused really.

I wonder if anyone can help me with all of above inquires.

Thanks in advance

Bye
