WHY does the home office not take into consideration properties fully paid and owned as savings.? A copy of the title deeds of property worth over £250,000 sent with the application were completely disregarded as assets or savings. any person with some common financial sense would not keep a large amount in the bank, instead would invest it in property and earn income from rent.

Hello dear, I have applied for my spouse through a solicitor on the 8th of April 2024, I am a self employed the solicitor has submitted my tax returns of 2022-2023! Do you think the Home Office has any issues or queries about the financial year in my case ? Looking forward to hear back from you soon. Thanks
Hello, I find this video very helpful. Thanks. May I ask one question? Can I hold my fixed deposit for first 5 months then transfer it the cash saving in sixth months so that to make up continous six months cash saving category D requirment? Assuming the amount of cash meets the miniumu requirement.
Wishing everyone good luck. I submitted application on 10th April 2024. Something I wish I knew was you don't have to send all documentation until point of biometrics appointment. I'm not sure if there are any limitations to this. Wishing everyone good luck. I had to go without lawyer in end as she seemed uninterested in working to this deadline can't really see her exact reasoning as being cohesive now that I've done it. Because I'm business though I had to wait until the 6th April to do my tax return. Will see if I succeed in getting my partner here or not 😊
@@gachacaspa congratulations! Can you help me with mine please? I'm already anxious and would appreciate a lot if you could send me a list of documents u sent to them. Thanks
Hi, please i need help, i am in a same sex relationship with a British guy and i don't think he earns enough to meet the financial requirement. Is there a chance that the income threshold may be overlooked aside from the listed exceptions? Does the £29k requirement apply to those applying for UK Finance Visa? Or just the spousal?
So we already have our flights for August 10th 2024, we applied 1 week before my 12 month mark, I was also on unpaid maternity leave from August to November. I have 6 months pay check showing I am on pace to make the right amount needed for the year the first one will be short but still will make enough for the year. I’m currently pregnant now and due September. I’m able to submit all documents to support everything, letters etc do you think we will be okay and get approved?
So if I make 35k a year, I can use cash savings over 16k to satisify? Lets say I have 25k savings and earn 35k a year, I need 3k more.. 25k - 16k = 9000 9000 / 2.5 = 3600 Can I then add the 3600 to my 35k to hit the 38.6k requirement?
Sorry for disturbing, i want to ask a question about my application. We applied 31 of january, BIO was 13 of february (standard out of country) and we are still waiting. Applied from Moldova, Russian citizenship. I know that a lot of people have got their visas already with the same BIO dates as mine. Is it okay to wait longer than the others? We also recieved a not straightforward application email the day after the BIO date (as all Russians receive).
Hi @fahimahmed6939, Yes. Self-employment and employment income can be combined. There are, however, numerous caveats to this as we discuss in this video (such as the relevant period for the employment income changing to the relevant self-employment period). Best regards, The Migrate.org.uk team.
I have a Question about showing statements for proof of funds, you said do not redact your statements but you did not say if it is important to also show your address? I am concerned giving away too much information to these people, i want to give just enough for them to accept.
Please sir my husband get Industrial injuries disablement benefit. And it's not enough to meet the financial requirement in the adequate maintenance. And my husband will start new job the next month. How many payslips need before we can apply for spouse visa

Does the spouse visa extension asks if the sponsor/applicant is in debt or on a debt management plan?

My partner and I live in Australia, she’s British and we want to go to Uk. How does it work if none of us work in the country?
So if I make 35k a year, I can use cash savings over 16k to satisify?
Lets say I have 25k savings and earn 35k a year, I need 3k more..
25k - 16k = 9000
9000 / 2.5 = 3600
Can I then add the 3600 to my 35k to hit the 38.6k requirement?

Hi. How long did they say to wait for it? I also applied, from Russia and they said to wait for 3-6 months. :(
After three days you will complete three months so did you receive your visa or not?
If yes, when

Does student finance form part of income source of sponsor?
Can self employed income and employed income be combined?

My British wife just started working how do we go about the financial requirements
You may need to wait until she's working for 6 months at least. I'm not an expert but that's what I learned from research
I have a Question about showing statements for proof of funds, you said do not redact your statements but you did not say if it is important to also show your address? I am concerned giving away too much information to these people, i want to give just enough for them to accept.
If you have nothing to hide then it's fine, they wouldn't mind your address with how many applications they look every day
Hi my wife is not working because she's taking care a disability child. That why she dont make the 29.000 incom can she still sponsor spouse visa
Please sir my husband get Industrial injuries disablement benefit. And it's not enough to meet the financial requirement in the adequate maintenance. And my husband will start new job the next month. How many payslips need before we can apply for spouse visa
6 months
What happens if I earn only 15600 in last 12 months period to application?
Maybe savings? Or have extra work
