Financial Threshold Advice

[Arthur Little]

Oh dear, David ... it seems I've made a faux pas - albeit an honest mistake - in genuinely trying to be helpful here. Truth is, I'd thought as long as the £18,600 criteria was met - with or without overtime being taken into account - then that would be all that mattered.

What I wasn't au fait with, were the *Categories A & B since *these did not exist when my wife applied for her Spousal Visa back in January 2009 ... i.e., fully 31/2 years prior to the introduction of the minimum income threshold. Hence I'd left that part for Terpe to advise - as indicated in my penultimate paragraph.

Therefore I can only apologise if I've been responsible for prematurely (albeit unwittingly) building up false hopes. However, I trust you will accept this was done in good faith!

Meanwhile ... please follow Terpe's subsequent guidance.
