letters with both names will be good, but not necessary.Patsyie wrote:Hello, I got married in my home country in Feb 2012 and came here in the UK in May 2012. I am still here and my visa expires next year July 2014. I have been doing research and seeing what the process is like for the ILR. I know they need joint accounts documents and so on. But my Husband refuses to put my name on the bills or even his council tax. I am worried because they are gonna need those documents next year and I don't want to apply without them caz I'm not gonna get my ILR. Is there a way around this? Is there something I can do? I need advice. Thanks in advance
what your husband doing is ILLEGAL he must put your name on council tax otherwise you are lying to government. He probably pay less that way and probably gets benefits.Patsyie wrote:Hello, I got married in my home country in Feb 2012 and came here in the UK in May 2012.

Tell him to put you on council tax and bills. Bills dont have to be on both name but you both need to show that you live in the same address.
I don't mean to intrude, but is your relationship ok? As what is happening has traits of domestic abuse.Patsyie wrote:Hello, I got married in my home country in Feb 2012 and came here in the UK in May 2012.

You don't HAVE to have all 6 letters in your joint name, but it definitely helps. My husband purposefully added my name to our gas account from the start knowing that we'd need it for the ILR Visa. We submitted 2 of those in my application; all the other letters (6 more) were individual - his more of the bill variety, mine were mostly NHS related. You may want to inform your husband that his refusal to add your name to any bill whatsoever could make your application process longer than necessary (if they have doubts, they'll dig or ask for my info...all of which takes time).Patsyie wrote:Hello, I got married in my home country in Feb 2012 and came here in the UK in May 2012.

I did sense that too. It's plain bullying and cussadness.My advise to you is to consult a Good solicitoor and take his/her instructions.D4109125 wrote:I don't mean to intrude, but is your relationship ok?

The problem is if he's talking about divorce the relationship is arguably not subsisting and you won't be able to apply for settlement under set(m) if it is not. The council tax issues is illegal, however, you could just phone up the local authority and tell them you are living there. However, if you fear a violent reaction don't do this. You don't need to submit council tax documents. However, I think that your partner may not help with the form and you'll be hard pressed to get settlement under set(m) without his support.Patsyie wrote:Well, he had separated with his previous wife and is paying £££ to the CSA every month for his two daughters. I don't know the laws here about council tax or anything. When i asked him why my name isnt on the bills His exact words were " because I need my name on them for the CSA and for the council tax there will be an increase in how much is payable" ... That's what he said. It's not like I'm not working. I have a good job and I'm earning good £££ ... He even demanded that I pay him £400 every month. To the person that hinted domestic abuse ... I know it's not all physical amuse but also emotional and for you to just pick up on that from one question it's very bad. I have been asking him to put my names on the bills from June 2012 it's almost a year now and I'm still not on them. To even open a bank account I had to get a letter from HM Revenue & Customs with my Tax code on it as a proof of address. I asked him to put my name on his bank details so I could get an account to cash my cheques and he declined. Sigh. I have it tough. He argues with me every other day and he always threatens to throw me out. He even got divorce papers and is forcing me to sign it. I really don't know what to do. I just think that he's doing all this because I'm new to the country and ignorant to all the rules & laws here. I just don't know what to do.

Thank you, but I think the op means that it is bad that the abuse is obvious from her post, not that it's bad we are saying she could be possibly suffering domestic abuse. Indeed, I think she is aware there is something wrong in the relationship.Kevin24 wrote:Among the Senior Members in this Forum, D4109125 is one of those I have lots of Respect and Regard for his knowledge and Experience.D4109125 wrote:I don't mean to intrude, but is your relationship ok?
