print and scan your latest 6 bank statements and email them to your wife, the problem is if they are online ones..
Consulates are reluctant to accept bank statements printed out from e-banking accounts because these can be so easily forged. Properly headed original statements can usually be obtained by visiting a branch office.
next get evidence you have £xxxx in bonds and write a letter that you have started process of selling them and the money will be in your current account but that will take xx wks. - the embassy want to see you have instant access to your money and not 90 or what ever days notice before you can get the money..
mention in the letter about your 3rd party financial sponsor again - did you send evidence they have access to money instantly ??
also its worth mentioning in your letter you wife has just finished a carers course and will be seeking employment when she is in the uk.
If the financial standing is marginal, and if the applicant has plans to work in the UK, a job offer letter can be included to bolster the application's strength; and failing all other evidence, the applicant may attach a CV (or academic credentials) which demonstrate favorable prospects. Note however, that this is generally the weakest form of evidence.
good luck, you shouldnt be thinking about going to an appeal
Focus on problems that are on hand...ignore those that are not there yet !!!good luck, you shouldnt be thinking about going to an appeal

Visa on its way! Well done!
Hooray !
You've done it .
The message from UKBA-Manila Visa Hub is the key one as they are the only ones who know the actual decision.
NORMALLY that message "Your visa will be despatched shortly" means exactly that.
The visa is on it's way.
Looks like time to say CONGRATULATIONS
and Well Done to you both
Now it's time to fork out for the air ticket. But don't do anything until the visa is physically in hand.
So glad you finally realise your dreams

yes hope u get good news soon too. thanks,. and thanks too Rusty.I am very happy for you both. Hopefully, my application will be a success like yours. I am waiting at the moment, hoping to hear some updates very soon! Congratulations again!!
can u tell me,does my wife need her passport changed into her married name to match the visa? or can she travel in her maiden name?
... there you go! Didn't I just recently tell you things often turn out better than expected?
Congratulations in advance to you and your wife, Brian.
Hmm ... wasn't your wife's passport still in her maiden name when she submitted her application?
ah ok Arthur,we will wait untill it arrives to see which name its in. & thanks for the congrats,i didnt have ur faith,lol.
Yes ... the main thing IS, the name on the visa matches the one on the passport she submitted when she applied - which, in your wife's case (as in many others) would be her maiden name - so changing surnames at this stage is neither necessary nor, for that matter, advisable.
Yeeha.
Congrats!

...When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible...
The visa will of course match the passport....no worries there.
My ex never bothered to change from her maiden name on her passport in 12 years....perhaps trying to tell me something. lol
Get her into the UK first before you start messing about with existing documents.
That's my advice to anyone.
It's already easy enough to confuse the office clerks in immigration.
congrats both of you!
Great news well done
It seems May is a very positive month for succesfull visa apps
AN HAPPY WIFE IS A HAPPY LIFE
Haha Brian looks like you don't need that Lawyer after all. Congratulations to you both
