Spouse Visa applying. tOO SOON or

[rusty]

In my opinion the important factors in the application for settlement visa is proof that it is a genuine relationship and you have the finances and accommodation to support your partner without the need for public funds.

Regarding the proof of relationship this is to be shown by the evidence that you will provide in the form of photos, travel itinerary, hotel bookings etc.

With reference to the financial requirements, the need for 6 months of bank statements and pay slips is to show that there is regular money going into an account.

As each application can be slightly different the need for the letter of support is essential to outline your particular circumstances.

In your case even though you say you married quickly, the fact that you are still married 3 years later should show the relationship is real.

Explain in your letter of support about your savings and income and also provide the projected forecast for your business, from an accountant if possible, and I feel this should be sufficient to show that you have the means to support your family.

I wish you all the best in your application and hope that you will be together soon as a family here in the UK.

you been married along time, have a son - so the embassy cannot say your relationship is not genuine

where are you living now, i take it, it will not be over crowded when you wife and son come ?

cab i think are right, so do as they say, you're working which is most important, you also have savings, as long as you have about £100 a week left after paying rent/util bills you should be ok..

as for 3 months being self employed, if you have an accountant ask them to help you do your projected forecast..

good luck, thou i think you shouldn't have a problem getting your visa

Thanks joe and Rusty for your support. Yes Joe as you know im ex-military and so the army helped me alot get a nice flat in Eastbourne over looking the sea. Have landlords permission for Deanna to live here and son. She is also on the house agreement

The CAB have called me in for a meeting to start the Spouse visa application as quickly as possible. 20th august. The Army realise that getting my wife here and son as soon as possible will benefit all of us. I have delayed everything too long now .

I now have savings of 2500 and this can increase after all bills by at least 700 pounds monthly. I have aLSO supported my wife and son in the philippines. I think on average 200 pounds per month since returning to UK last July

£2,500 is enough ron, and you've got other money coming to..

what more important is that your working, and some people have managed to get a visa with no savings, even some lucky people have managed to get a visa while only on benefits.., thou i know of people who have been refused for being overdrawn on their bank balance..

anyway, good luck but i'm sure you will not need it
