No offence, but it will be much easier if you wrote in proper english, everyone will be able to understand what you're trying to say and you will probbably recieve more replies to your questions, also the random capitals don't help things.

You need a bank balance saving of say around £3000 - £4000

That would be enough to support your partner i.e pay funding for ticket etc.
Bank balance has to be there so they can see you are earning and saving at the same time also. There is no point having a regular job and your outgoing are so high that what goes into account goes out at some point.
They want to see you can manage your account at the same time be able to live and save and support partner.

No point having a job but account balance is very low that would come to a surprise to ECO as to why your not saving money, where your money goes? will you be able to live of that with out help from benefits.
There are ways around this if you are going to submit your paperwork in 6 months and have not started collecting your bank statements.

All the best

It's going very slow, there are still a few of us from June who are waiting for decision, I can't beleive it's going to be nearly 4 month's next week for me since my husband submitted his application.

It's so fustrating not knowing the outcome, considering the decision was made over a month ago!!! I just hope it's good news after all this waiting inshallah

i think £3k - £4k is alot i think atleast £1.5k depending upon your salary and expenditures is what i have been told

@ shazaz i will definitely notify the bhc about our new job in december because they might ask questions about your fix term contract ??? plus you will have nothing to lose. just send it to the address i gave you.

does anyone know if the bhc checks whether the visa applicant mobile phone number is registered in their name or not???

apparantly a cousin of mine's application was rejected on this issue as the mobile number of his wife (the applicant) was not registered in her name!!!! i have not heard this before !!!!!!!!!!!!!
