Received an email from Home office (spouse visa application)

Hello everyone,

I recently applied for my spouse visa and I totally forgot to upload the p60. We have the contract, employment letter, bank statements and payslip but not the p60.

On the sponsor cover letter that we sent in, I mentioned the p60 as part of the documents that were to be submitted and I was wondering if that would be to our detriment?

My husband has been at his current job for 11 months and he meets the income requirement which has been evidenced by statements and payslips.

What do we do now? Upload the p60 or re-upload a different cover letter to state that we won’t be submitting a p60?

What purpose was the P60 to serve? If you have met the requirements and all then you should be good.
You didn't mention letter from employer though.

Double post..

Yeah sorry the employment letter is letter from the employer. So basically we have the contract, letter from employer, bank statement and payslips.

The P60 was supposed to serve as part of the financial/employment evidence? I already referenced it in the cover letter we submitted so that’s why I’m worried.

Should I resend another cover letter to state that we didn’t include the p60 and it was a mistake?

Thank you! The P60 is a bit confusing as it doesn’t show the full amount my partner has earned. He’s been at his current job since last year September but his p60 earnings don’t reflect that. His income before tax is £22,000 so I’m hoping the payslip and bank statements are enough.

I’m hoping the payslip and bank statements are enough.

The above and the employer letter are mandatory documents. The P60 isn't.

It's up to you to decide whether or not to submit it.

Thank you. I’ve got another question, I’m switching from tier 4 to spouse visa and I forgot to mention that in the cover letter. Will this be an issue?

The reason I ask is because the FLR(M) is used for different situations and I should have made it clear on the cover letter that this was my first spouse visa application but I didn’t. I uploaded my passport and biometric residence permit so is that enough?

Just don’t want to give them any reason to toss my application

This is why the P60 is not a correct evidence to use in reflecting or proving actual income.

Nothing to worry about. It won't be an issue.
They've asked the questions they want answers to on the application form.

Hello! It’s me again with my silly brain.

This time around I forgot to include my recent travel history. I know people can get their visas refused for not disclosing accurate travel histories. What do I do?

My husband and I went away end of August 2020 to Gibraltar but when asked if I had been out of the UK, I said yes but i put down that I went to Nigeria back in October 2019. I totally forgot to put down Gibraltar instead. Is there a number I could call to explain or should I wait till my biometrics?

[Tania10]

Anyone?? Mods?

Better to attach an amended covering letter wherever (app/appointment) you will be able to upload.

Hello all,

I just received an email from home office requesting for documentary evidence that my husband and I have been residing in the United Kingdom.

The email stated that this evidence should be from at least 6 official sources per year and addressed to BOTH parties either jointly or separately.

This is our first visa application and I’m switching from tier 4 visa. My partner and I moved in together in March, currently living with my uncle and we have no letters / bills addressed to us yet.

And I thought we only had to provide this documents during the second extension?

What do I do? Should I send an email explaining all of this?
