I already have few interview scheduled in 2nd week of Jan let hope and see.

My question is.

My spouse EC says. " Visa to ACC Spouse"
with this visa can my spouse work or she has to get some new visa?

Big congrats!!!

Your spouse need not apply for a new visa. Her "visa to accompany spouse" is all she needs and she is allowed to work based on your approval.

i presume HO shouldn't have a problem with you going to settle down before your wife joins you in two months time, considering the challenges of relocating to one of the most expensive cities of this planet

The 'drift' that one gets from reading the HSMP guidelines is :

It is alright if the spouse comes in later provided you have her/him beside you at the end of the first year (read extension).
After all, you gained valuable points for a qualified and/or productive spouse. In return for points, they expect the 'capable' partner to be atleast present in the UK job market, if not gainfully employed.

However, do wait for this view to be seconded by one of the moderators/senior members.
