We must all sign this petition

[Dedworth]

I'm a caregiver just like robert and my gf who i visited 5 times hope to marry and come uk next year all changed now due to this income increase.

What income increase these are proposals ?

See my post 177 lobby your MP, start by asking him/her why there are no income restrictions on a citizen from another EU country working here bringing his non EU spouse to UK

[zaxy]

Hi dedworth yeah I read about that if you hold an eu passport you have no problem to bring your wife into the uk but since we in the eu we should also have that right to bring our wife in the uk aswel.

I confused when it comes to imigration law and eu law. I have also heard about people in the eu entitleed to our NSH and benifits not sure if this is true.

This whole country is getting to be 1 big joke specially with imigration.

[zaxy]

i think its a bit more than just a proposal as some date in June was mentioned in Mays leaked letter..

but dedworth your right about kicking up a fuss and complaining, respect for that

So far, recently, they have followed up on their proposals rather succesfully, have they not?

yes , but hopefully like some previous proposals they will be forced to do a U-TURN

They might put my pension up to £26,000

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.

With all due respect what figure would you like?

My point is this £26k is not that much money to earn these days and anyone bringing in a spouse to live here in the uk with them needs to be able to prove they can support her
I actually think that 26k is on the low side

Ok Ok..... you can have your 5 minutes of fun. Looks like you are here just to wind people up. Lets see how it pans out, but remember you can go just as quick as you arrived.

I am not here to wind anyone up actually, i was just giving another side of the debate

I have been down this road myself in the past and have had many a fight with immigration

I stand by my last last post 26k is on the low side for someone about to bring another person to reside in this country

26k PLEASE GET REAL YOU ARE LIVING ON ANOTHER PLANET MATE

26k is not a high figure for someone wanting to bring another person to live in the uk

what figure would you like?

I am fortunate that I am the right side of that figure. But I can see that it is a little unfair. I tend to think there is a better, fairer and lower happy medium there somehwere.

They have to settle on some figure, i would suggest 26k is not enough to support 2 people living in a town like London

[joebloggs]

well if 26k in your opinon is not enough to support 2 people, then maybe you should be telling the gov this and asking them to increase the minimum wage to your figure

do you have a figure that should be applied to Europeans in the UK wanting to bring their spouse?

also what about the earning potential of the spouse, my wife earns double what i earn, in a few years she will earn 4 times what i earn

why should there be a minimum figure, if the British partner is entitled to claim benefits, then it is their legal right to claim those benefits, and so it should be whether his wife is british, european, asian or from planet mars
