Im confused at first I thought your the Brit BF

Anyway goodluck and remember that best to research well, prepare your requirements, make sure everything is complete before you submit it...and most importantly better have everything sorted as it is expensive to apply for a VISA and you dont want it be wasted

Sorry for the confusion guys! We both use this account... A heartfelt thanks to all of you guys.
God bless us all,
Marlyn & Kenny

I was told by a visa consultancy she wont get a fiance visa because oour grounds are to weak. Because we have only spent two weeks together late set 2008 and a year working appart. So i then asked for a visitors visa, he said not much chance because she cannot show good grounds to return like family comitments a job ect.So i wil go there and spend a whole month, i hope this will be enough. Regards. kenny and marlyn. please excuse my dyslexia.

No need to say sorry for your dyslexia... my bf has slight dyslexia too... I don't think having to spend only 2 weeks together would mean that you will be denied a visa. I would suggest that you still pursue applying for it. All you have to do is support it with the documents written on the VFS checklist and provide was was asked, especially the financial docs. I didn't ask the help of any visa consultancy.. just done it myself with loads of research and help from this site... coz of that, I got my fiancee visa in close to 11 weeks!

you need to show that you have over £2000 in the bank for the 6 months and show how much you earn too,where you live and how much you will both live on.

having been overdrawn doesnt look good,how many months have you had over £2000 in?

i kept £2000 in my bank but with other money i had upto £5000 in my account for the 6 months.

This is really welcome, thank you so much.
MY six months bank statements show a up and down movement of zero to 2000 on some statements. However on most is just a few hundred. I invested the money in cars to make profit on to help our visa. I thought they would understand if i explain ???? thank yuou so much.

Thank you so much,
I think its my finances that wil let me down, the rest is pretty strong. It requirs 6 months payslips and bank statements. THe payslips are fine i have a good steady income. But i chose to use my savings and invest it in cars so that when i go to join my fiance i have enough for her visa and wedding. So my statements show a few hundred pounds going up and down for six months and when i piut the money back into my acvcount it will zoom to 4500.( not a lot hu lol )I have got an aranged overdraught of 1500 so i have diped into that a couple of times over the csix months toi. What do you think ?? Warm regards. kenny.

.. you can explain to your sponsor letter about the changes in your saving... that is what me and my husband doing now, writing a sponsor letter.. we explain everything they would want to know..make them satisfied
but mind the grammar and spelling

THank you so much, very swet and helpfull. I will leave the spelling and grammer to my fiance marlyn. God bless.

.. it would be a good idea if you explained this "business venture" (trading cars)
in greater detail in a seperate appendix/covering letter to the ECO.

I assume that if you are buying/selling the vehicles, then at some stage they
have been registered in your name ?
If so, is it possible to talk to the DVLC and get them to supply you with a
print out of your "account" over the last 12-18mnths ? ie car registered in
your name / car "un"registered ?
This would give full supporting "evidence" of your alternate business venture,
and fully explain the swings in your bank statement.

The ECO purely needs to understand, to be comfortable .... so the more info
u give in your covering explaination, the easier for him to say "YES".

Forget "consultants" or "agents". Keep the money in the bank rather where it will benefit your application rather some shark's bank balance.
There is a wealth of knowledge on the internet, and plenty of people willing to offer experienced advice. Turn to this rather than to some clown wanting to make a fast buck out of your desparation for a quick fix to what is a slow process.
Firstly, resist the temptation to want everything immediately and do not rush/bodge things to your detriment.Take it methodically one step at a time and make sure you do everything accurately and make a watertight case.

Concentrate on proving that you have a solid and loving relationship. They aren't too bothered about savings, but you will need a steady, reasonable and uninterrupted income; and bank statements showing a certain degree of control of your finances (for example, going to your overdraft briefly is only normal in the current climate -we arent all millionaires!- wheras huge debit card payments to a brewery or William Hills at the start of the month and living off your overdraft for the rest of it wont do you any favours!).

Sit yourself down and write yourself a list of what you must do. Put dates into this to give yourself a timetable. Then against every one of these dates make a checklist of the 'evidence' you must accumulate, the steps you must take and any costs involved...... Work on it like a little project, using the internet as research tool.And dont forget to save those emails, letters, chat logs and take regular photos with date-stamps.
Above all, don't panic or get stressed and shirty, it wont accomplish anything except putting a strain on that which you should be holding together. If your relationship is strong enough to make it through this whole process, you will make it through anything!
