Hey Terpe.

Thanks for the details regarding income and accomodation.

I was just worried regarding accomodation that my parents need to provide bank statements regarding their income and so on.

But just to confirm my parents own their own home so just need to provide the info. above as what you have said.

yes I agree. I will live with my parents for a few months. After my family are little bit settled in ill look for a house and then move out. See what happens eh!

What you think?

Terpe Im so confused. You said Im entitled to benefits. I though if im in receipt of benefits then this could damage my application right?

My 2 bio children are british so if they claim benefit will this not damage my wifes application?

Hey Terpe. Thanks alot for that link buddy.

Ive been browsing threads but never came across that one. Guess I must've missed it.

Terpe I have another question, dont kill me lol.

I perfectly understand the thread and the situation. It talks more about after receiving the spouse visa.. bla bla and after arriving in the uk what people can claims.

What poisition would that put me in when my wife submits her spousal visa for her and two step kids. ( 3 applications) At this stage do I need to show support for only three or also my two bio kids who already have british passports?

Of course the ECO will ask who will live in the house so i will state myself, wife, 2 step kids, and bio kids.

In this case does the ECO still include the maintenance of the bio children or not or will he think in the back of his mind that oh theyre british so they should be able to claim child benefit?

When submitting an application do i need to show that ill have enough money to support my bio children too, even if im not applying for their visa?

What if I show that my parents support my bio kids fiancially or something like that?

Still a sketchy area for me.

Im so nervous because Im still in the Philippines. Its like a big gamble going back to the UK. I have an if in my mind that what if i dont meet the requirement ill have to come back to the Philippines and start all over again. !!
