If you are unlucky to be invited for an interview , it will be because the ECO is not convinced on any one of the above points and that is why he wants a face to face chat.
Thanks. I never thought about it that way, I just assumed they might not like him living somewhere else and then deport him or something. I have been doing as much research as I can into everything but I just could't find anything on this specific situation. Thanks again.djb123 wrote:You are living permanently together as husband and wife, it's just your husband will be spending some nights away from you because of his studies.
If asked surely his answer will be that his permanent home will be with you at your parents house, but he plans to rent student accomodation to use when he cannot get back there.
