support letter from landlady

[JAMZ]

When I asked for a letter from my landlord the following things were I asked him to emphasize (aside from the tenancy agreement i submitted):

Letter from the Landlord addressed to the Entry Clearance Officer - Manila with the following details:
1. No. of bedrooms in the house and if the whole house is solely occupied by the sponsor or not
2. Rent Amount
3. From/To date of lease
4. Statement in the letter that husband/wife & children are permitted to stay in the said property...

Better submit a letter which is accurate and complete to avoid inconvenience. My family was granted a visa October last year in just 6 days after submission because I was really very keen to these tiny details.

I was communicating then to a Letting Agent in behalf of my landlord so they were able to sign the letter. Signature from the landlady is better if I were to ask.

it sure helps to send as much useful evidence as possible , but thats not the only reason you got your visa in 6 days, it depends on the length of the queue, time of the year, the person dealing with the app, and if the embassy are using your app to swat flies with

Hehe... Yes, my husband never experienced a long queue because we made an appointment via email 3 days before the submission and he got the earliest slot. But he witnessed a long queue after him so it really depends on how you manage your time and the strategy as well plus the big factor - the contents and accuracy of your documents.

With re to transferring of flat to your husband's friend's house, will this be a shared flat? If not, you will be fine and ok to discuss it with the ECO but if shared, for me it will make things bit complex. More things need to be supported, I guess... But the safest thing to this is to submit an evidence of accommodation with at least 6 months allowance. I have read that before somewhere here and it makes sense because it's hard that you grant one a visa today and tomorrow the applicant will no longer have a sure accommodation.

Before my family applied for visa, I waited for my time to move in first in another property. Before, I was sharing with a friend but I thought that it would make things easier if I move to a flat which my family will solely use because it's a good evidence that you can support your family on your own - that you have the capacity to provide them comfy life without sharing accommodation with others... But I am not saying you should not share, for many applicants share in one house. I am just laying down my thoughts when i was sponsoring my family that time. My mind was only focused that time on the things what I could strongly present to the ECO as if no one could ever help in everything esp. financially when my family is here...
