    need advise please

    Hello good day just need some answers regarding some questions on the application form....

    1st is for question 8.7.14 How much of your sponsor's total monthly income is given to their family members and other dependants?
    Do i have to state here also the money he sent to me?

    2nd is for 8.7.15 How much does your sponsor spend each month on living costs?
    Will i include it here also the money he sent to me?

    Thanx for all the help

    Maya.... your question is the easiest / quickest to answer :

    "I will abide by the restrictions of the fiance visa, but it is my hope that in the future I will work in the UK, if or when I receive my Further Leave to Remain visa"

    8.7.14

    Here we stated what money I give to my ex wife and child each month. No more than that.

    1st is for question 8.7.14 How much of your sponsor's total monthly income is given to their family members and other dependants?


    This is mainly applicable if he's divorced/seperated, and is paying a monthly settlement to an ex-wife, and/or children from a previous marriage

    2nd is for 8.7.15 How much does your sponsor spend each month on living costs?
    Will i include it here also the money he sent to me?


    He needs to set out on a seperate sheet of paper, his monthly outgoings... eg...
    Electricity £xx
    Gas £xx
    Rent/mortgage payments £xxx

    I'd also suggest he includes:
    Living allowance to fiance in Philippines £xxx (which will stop once she is in the UK, and be used for general living expenses)

    Basically, he just needs to show he has enough disposable income for you & he to live on, and cover all your living costs

    8.7.15

    Here we stated what I spent each month to live but I am sorry I can't exactly remember if it included what I sent to my wife in the Philippines.

    In our case we didn't break my living costs down within the application for this question (hence I have no record of having included monies paid to my wife except for the money gram receipts). But judging by the amount we specified I think it was included in the answer for 8.7.15.

    You don't need to supply detailed info like that.... but obviously if the answer is "Yes", then you certainly have to include a copy of the decree absolute in with your application.

    .... otherwise, how will the ECO know if he's free to re-marry ?

    If he's been divorced, answer is YES and put in the additional details something like "Mr. _______ was previously married. Please see attached Decree Absolute for details"..

    Hi. Thank you for this thread! I have a few questions in regards to this matter as well.

    5.11 Do you receive income from any other sources,
    including friends or family?


    - in your opinion, do you think i include here the money my dad sends me every month? i'm just a bit reluctant about this because I withdraw ALL of it every month so the bank account happens to have nothing left in it


    8.4.12 Have you lived with your sponsor in a relationship
    like a marriage or civil partnership at any time (including
    since a wedding or civil partnership ceremony)?


    - I have no idea what this question means. Please help.

    Thank you!!!!

    8.4.12

    This was a difficult one for us. As we hadn't really spent much time together before we applied except in a hotel when I visited. We simply put that down with dates. (And enclosed hotel receipts etc)

    It just asks if you have lived together as a couple at all.

    After we married we spent time together in a hotel until I left the Philippines. I thought that that would help. I was conscious that we had to prove a relationship existed so out of desperation we included that time.

    errrr ...NO...I wasn't married to Keith when I applied the fiancee visa last year, nor did we live in together like a married couple..so my answer to that question in the application form was right..which is "No" ..I don't think having a holiday together in some places would be considered as living together..

    Ah. Apologies, Rayna. Silly mistake of mine. I had assumed that you were married when you applied.

    In our case we couldnt really say much else except no. So we chose to be positive. Our Immigration advisor felt it was acceptable. And we got the visa.

    Hello, I answered YES to this question but with accompanying phrase. I hope I remember what I wrote in the application but it sounds like this. "YES, I would seek employment as a teaching assistant, shop attendant or a private tutor (you just need to replace the type of job I wrote) ONCE MY IMMIGRATION STATUS PERMITS ME TO DO SO. When I was at the Immigration counter at Manchester Airport, the Immigration officer asked me the same question... And I think, my answer was consistent with what I wrote in my application and I did not find problems with it.

    Good Luck with the application.

    Your fiance can send an email to a register office/church where you intend to marry, inquiring about wedding date and requirements, etc. You can include the email and response of the Register Office/Church in your visa application. You cannot book a wedding date until you've been here in the UK for 8 days, but this exchange of emails between your fiance and the superintendent registrar would be a nice proof about wedding plans. Something like this..
