    We must all sign this petition

    This wouldn't be so fair on us not bringing our wife/husbands to live with us if we have to earn around 26 grand.
    Let's all get behind this and sign this petition which needs 1000 signatures.
    Here's the link:

    I understand the Govt is thinking along the lines of between £18,700 and £25,700 pa.

    This may well have been brought about by abuse for example from Mr M Uslim of Blackburn who is on benefits, has 3 "wives" all living with their 4 kids in Council housing and is applying to import a 4th from Karachi.

    I have heard they were raising this but also heard they had not set an income figure yet, anything from 18-25k. They will go high if they are wanting to curb the people coming in.

    what ever figure they set there will be court cases, I'm sure of that , article 8 unless cameron can scrap parts of it

    i'm sure people will find ways around this to, maybe just get a part time job to boost your income, what if a friend or family member or someone who owns a business to 'employ' you on a nice wage until you get the visa , i'm sure people have thought of many other ways around this, but using deception might get you a ban so be warned

    ILR is a good way off for us but we still need to be thinking ahead on this. Does qualification for ILR require close scrutiny of income, same as the Spouse and Fiancee visa applications?

    lastlid, just to put your mind to rest. UKBA have internal guidance that states ILR refusal will NOT be issued solely due to financial reasons.

    Just now I cannot locate the actual working, but will try to find it and post it here.

    Really there are not any major issues for genuine couples.

    ... you're probably right, Andy ...

    ... be that as it may, however ... we HAVE to put up a united front and fight this proposal tooth & nail ... and the more signatories WE, as a much~respected forum, can muster - as soon as possible - the better-placed we are to ensure common sense prevails.

    So keep 'em coming! I, for one, feel indebted to Nick for drawing this petition to our attention!

    And ... for the record, Stevie & Lasttlid can BOTH rest easy that - come what may - their respective marital partners will NOT find themselves adversely affected by ANY of the proposed changes.

    if i remember correctly , in the govs new proposals, you need to have at least the minimum income when you apply for ILR, FLR or for a settlement visa, thou i would have thought there would be a transition period for those soon to be applying for ILR maybe FLR?.

    also i can't see the HO deporting people become of not reaching the minimum income, that would be that you've been here near 2yrs, married to a British citizen and then told to leave, can't see it happening, not with article 8. more likely and common sense might be that you would have to apply for FLR or keep applying for FLR until you reach the minimum income. so stopping those from claiming ILR and recourse to public funds.

    Surely if you show that you have a reasonable amount of cash in the bank this would offset someone who is just below what they class as enough income to support your spouse.
