hello mastergridd,

I agree with sars_notd_virus.

Yes you may tell them about your previous visits as they will find the records anyways. But the spousal visa is different from your previous application.

Yes. Chats, emails, photos together, telephone bills, evidence of living together, marriage contract, birth certificate (both) etc...is needed for the spousal visa application. Even bank statements. Have all important documents ready (original) as they may ask for more evidence. In the application form or the website that sars_notd_virus, all requirements and what to do is there. Even questions like where & when did you meet your husband is there in the form. When you fill up the dated form & paid the visa fee, phone the call centre right away for appointment. Always check the requirements carefully. Should all docs are genuine, everything will be alright.

I was engaged last March 2006. Married last March 2008. Paid and booked appointment after all the papers are ready. Lodged my application first week of April. Appearance & biometrics is needed & got my Settlement/ Spousal visa (multiple entry) last July 31 & arrived in the UK last Aug 2008.

Keep on checking the website http://www.vfs-uk-ph.com/ for the updates.

Wishing u goodluck with your application.
