Hey Terpe

thanks for the reply.
Okay I understand now what you mean.

As for living in Europe I have no intention of doing that. UK Is my home and that is where I need to be.
Do you know if I can speak to an Immigration Advisor at the Citizens Advice Bureau?
As for work I have several work lined up one with my previous company, and several in factory work. Also I have had some offers from friends where they recommended me for work in their company.

Wage is around £1,100 per month. So of course ill have to take up two jobs. Once in the UK ill look for some weekend job such as a coffee shop, Argos etc etc. Anything I can get my hands on. OF course they need to give me a wage slip, deduct tax and pay the wage into my bank account.

Terpe I have multiple strategies worked out and I would like to share them with you and tell me what you think. Please be patient with me. I would just like to take it all of my chest so I can get some opinions and suggestions.

I have a co-sponsor my cousin he is working full time, hes single and in no debts. Hes willing to be my co-sponsor and support us should we get in any financial trouble. So that’s THAT.

So as you know for instance if im making £1,500 per month after tax its still marginal for myself, wife and 4 kids. (my wife and I = £424 4 kids £992 = total £1,416) these are the basic income support levels.

Now as you can see this is not including rent and so on because I will be living with my parents for free. They don’t have a mortgage so no need to pay rent and my parents are more than happy to keep me and my family rent free. Just need to pay some utility costs and that’s all.

Also my Uncle owns an underwear factory and he has offered to help and employ my wife as an office worker. 25 hours per week, paying £6.50 per hour so total monthly income is about £652.00 gross. My uncle is willing to submit an offer letter. My wife is a graduate and can speak a good command of English which my uncle specifically stressed to me that he needs someone with good english. This position is also verifiable if the eco wanted they may ring or contact my uncle in regards to this position and the management can verify this position.

“even stronger case if she could have a job offer.”

Question for you Terpe.
In this situation where I don’t meet the maintenance and my wife has a verifiable job offer could this make our case stronger or not? What other evidences will be need to verify this job offer?

When my wife works we wont need any baby sitters as my parents are willing to do all this for us. Plus my wife will only work part time. Do you think if it’s a full time position its even better?

please give me your opinions whether this case looks strong or not ? Do i need to do more?
