Hi All,
Over the years I have found so much help from these boards. I am now enquiring for a family member who is looking to apply for the UK sposue visa.
The wife is a UK Citizen (by birth) and husband is a Pakistani national. They have been married for over 15 years. The kids are UK Citizens (because mother is a UK Citizen by birth).
Both have been living abroad. Wife was born in the UK but has not resided in the UK since childhood.
The financial support will be based on savings, as neither sposue has a job in the UK. I believe the threshold is around £62,500.
My two-pronged question is:
1) Does the wife need to be physically present/resident in the UK before supporting a visa application for the husband? Does it suffice that she moves to the UK, rents an appropriate accommodation, and then file for the spouse visa application straightaway?
2) Is there any complication with the financial support via savings, or will it suffice to provide over 6 months of bank statements showing the savings?
Thanks so much in advance for your help.
