My parents went to the local MP for some advice about my wife's Spouse visa application, they were really helpful on lots of things but they brought up this 2 year thing which threw a spanner in...Greenie wrote:I find it hard to believe that even the UKBA would say that a British Citizen needs to apply for a visa to enter the UK.![]()
Why are you asking your 'hometown government' to speak to UKBA and not asking them yourself?
Actually I have researched every word of the immigration rules that apply to my wife's application....we are applying in September when I have worked for 6 days a week, for 6 months to come closer to the financial requirement of GBP 18,600 PA.Lucapooka wrote:Clearly you don't know you way around the immigration rules or rights of abode for British citizens and, as such, I wonder if you have even looked at the requirements for your partner's settlement visa? Can you confirm that she would qualify for this?

It used to be that the salary was calculated by taking the lowest pay in the last 6 months and multiplying by 12...
However I have just read the statement of changes and it says this...
In Appendix FM-SE after paragraph 18(b) insert:
“(bb) In respect of a person in salaried employment at the date of application, the
amount of income in sub-paragraph (b) which may be added to their gross annual
salary, and counted as part of that figure for the purposes of paragraph 13(a)(i) or
13(b)(i), is the annual equivalent of the person’s average gross monthly income from
that income in their current employment in the 6 months prior to the date of
application.”.
So am I right in thinking that a month where i did nearly twice as much overtime than the other 5 months will be useful to me now?
edit: 18b states that overtime counts towards gross annual salary

Can someone check over my calculations for my income.
my basic salary is 11500 RMB per month (gross)
For the last 6 months I have been paid 3750 RMB overtime in 5 months and 6000 overtime in one month. (gross)
I got two bonuses during this time of 500RMB and 800RMB (gross)
I calculate that my gross annual income for the purposes of the visa are 190100 RMB.....
This is calculated by taking the mean average of all my overtime and bonuses over the 6 months and multiplying by 12....then adding it to the basic salary which according to the changes made after october 1st is how they will be calculating overtime and bonuses

Its delaying us applying because I need to get bank statements sent from home to China which takes ages....and one bank has already failed on its 7-10 day promise of receiving them...
Could someone clarify that the following statement means we do not need to show savings
The applicant has to demonstrate and evidence the income/savings required to meet the
level of the financial requirement relevant to their application. They do not need to provide
information in the first instance about any income/savings which they and/or the partner
may have beyond this.
