of course if you had money that would help, but its up to him, the sponsor to be able to demonstrate he can support you without you needing recourse to public funds.

if he has savings that will help to.

i think its a minimum of £106 a week after he's paid council tax, rent and any loans he has.

nothing stopping you, as long as your husband and you meet the requirements, he has £106wk after paying council tax, rent and loans, also he has suitable accommodation for you and your in a genuine relationship.

him having some savings will help.

also dla will be replaced on the 8th of april with a new allowance Personal Independence Payment (PIP) thou not sure yet if this will make any difference to getting a visa.

so it might be a good idea to apply asap before the changes or wait til after april and see how the changes will effect him.
