just on reading the above, if this is the conditions they look for to approve visit visa, then with regard to supporting spouse for 6 mths, with no financial requirement,

it makes a mockery of the visa requirements for spouse,

anyway regardless of how i interpret this,
i say go for it the visit visa, as everyone says theres nothing to lose,

good luck Neil
