hi everyone, i am new here! i just want ask an advice, if the sponsor is in receipt of cares allowances 59.75 a week and income support is 45.25.total of 105 pounds a week...and the immigration requirements should be 112 a week... what should we do for that,,,, what if the sponsor get a part time job to cover 7 pounds lacking.
please help thanks....
Do you think £112 a week is enough to support 2 people in the uk?
Depends how many hours a week your sponsor works and how much money your sponsor gets paid
Normally they start cutting your income support as soon as you earn money
Sponsors are normally working people with jobs not people on benefits
I would imagine that the immigration department at the British Embassy in Manila would take a great interest in the fact that your sponsor is not even working.......................

sorry this may sound harsh if you think living in the philippines is hard enough try living in the u.k on 112 pounds a week its like jumping from the frying pan into the fire .I would reconsider your plans until things improve financaily

How he goes about earning or receiving that money i do not know.
Hopefully another member will be able to help her with that information.
Also remember that this £112 a week is a net figure.
In other words their rent and council tax have been paid for them.
So...food, energy bills, clothing etc to come out of the £112.
Council tax £135, Gas & Electric £70, Water £30, TV licence, £12.12, BT phone internet £23.50, Rent £475, Car insurance £12.06, Car finance£131.97, Total per month £889.65, also food petrol & savings on top of that. Good job wifeys working!
Hmm.
I need a working wife.

Bills, not wives
I have a water meter.
My water bill has never been more than £40 for a quarter during the 5+ years I've been in this house.
And I'm working again Graham!Hmm.

Don't take any offence Sir. I'm not being critical.
If you have an interest and wish to understand why you're incorrect about most of what you stated, then review the UKBA requirements and immigration rules.
BTW £112 per week is net disposable income after total housing costs.
Many folks are unable to work for all sorts of reasons, but still able to bring their spouse to UK under specified exemptions.
Means the British Embassy would NOT have any special interest in whether the sponsor is working or not.
Thank you so much for your reply sir terpe. I am so happy that I've seen your reply on my post.. sir, what do think if my sponsor just get 105pounds per week after all the deduction ...Is that acceptable if he do a par time job to cover 7 pounds lacking. can we push through our application?
Sorry to say, but £105 per week is not going to be acceptable.Thank you so much for your reply sir terpe.

The current Income Support level for a couple over 18 years of age is £112.55
The UKBA ECO will firstly want to establish your husband's current net income (income from benefits can be included as income) Specified evidence of income will need to be submitted.
You'll need to supply total housing costs (you need to submit evidence of this)
The ECO will deduct the total housing costs from net income and will expect the result to be at or above the current Income Support level of £112.55
My personal advice would be to have your sponsor achieve a significantly better result than a minimum £112.55
Are you married?
If you arrive to UK under a spouse visa at least you'll be allowed to seek employment immediately on arrival which will make your UK living better
Get my bill every 6 months.... Never more than £60. Helps I guess I shower at the gym a lot and ripped out my bath last year and fitted just a shower instead!I have a water meter.

Hi Sir Terpe,
I'm not married yet but were planning to apply for a fiance visa...My fiance told me, what if hes going to do a part time sir to cover 7 pounds lacking. ? is that possible that we go through my application? is their any chance for me to be with him...thanks sir
if he takes a part time job they will deduct the amount he earns from his benifits so in effect no he needs to find full time job to lift himself over the target income required
Sweetlove, I agree with the comments from tiger31
It's really not as simple as a case of making up a £7 shortfall. It's quite a bit more complicated with benefits.
The carers allowance of £59.75 currently being being received is based on 35 hours per week care so that in itself does not leave much time for employment.
The UKBA ECO will look carefully at any application which is considered marginal/borderline. From the information you've divulged your position is definitely marginal.
As a Fiancee you both should understand that you will not be allowed to work until you have married and been granted Further Leave to Remain.
FLR application will continue to put the finances under scrutiny.
Your Fiance/Sponsor really needs to rethink the overall financial position.
Without that Carers Allowance your Fiance will not be eligible for exemption, which will mean meeting the Income threshold of £18600 per year.
Sorry it's not really what you'd hoped for. You and your Fiance need to discuss together.
