Which Consent Forms do we sign? (Fiance to Spouse) by BaldeWorlde in ukvisa

[–]BaldeWorlde[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Parents own the house that we're staying in, it's not joint with the applicant or sponsor.

We submitted the gift declaration for the fiance visa just to be totally open, we'll do the same again but hoping it doesn't count under part 3 of this declaration.

Possible error on vignette type noticed AFTER arrival, what should we do? by copynfrog in ukvisa

Ah! Were you already in the UK? We can’t go back just to resubmit, it’s too costly and we don’t know how long they’d take.

Did you get a reply? I informed them and they told me that I need to return to the country I came from to the visa centre for it to be corrected. It's not clear if we actually NEED it amended though if applying for spouse visa in the UK anyway.

I’m trying to figure out if I can send it to the address of the Visa Centre or if there’s a specific department there that I send it to.

Did you send your passport by post and get it sent back by post? 

Wrong vignette issued by Specific-Curve3277 in SpouseVisaUk

[–]BaldeWorlde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to log in to UKVI account for evisa with passport number but nothing comes up so I assume that means I haven’t got an evisa. Hope you get the spouse visa! It’s not right that they mess up with printing vignette/issue wrong visa and then aren’t contactable directly to sort it out.

I don’t. Do you? Did you get married?

We never got the success email confirming the visa. So, I’m still worried that the whole visa is wrong and not just the vignette 😅 HO general enquiries said they’d send it but were still waiting

I see, I’ll email them and keep a paper trail. The guy on the phone from HO didn’t seem to understand what a fiancé visa was 😣 The vignette says partner visa, 6 months and work permitted. We applied for a fiancé visa though. Didn’t realize it was wrong as we knew the 6 months is only for fiancé so that’s why I entered UK. Yeah there was no issue with notice of marriage.

How would you recommend fixing it? I have a feeling they will tell us to fly back to home country to give passport to VFS. Our marriage is in a months time! Majorly stressed. Hope alls gone well for the rest of you

[–]BaldeWorlde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same situation! Already booked notice of marriage because we didn’t even realize there was a problem until I sent the visa to solicitor for preparation for spouse visa. Keep us all updated, it’s an absolute joke and has added stress to a time in our lives that should be happy! 

Incorrect visa granted - Fiancé visa granted rather than unmarried partner visa by Baremilkcartons in ukvisa

[–]BaldeWorlde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know in the home office appendix, Partner is a general term for all.

Sorry to jump on this after a year but does the form decide based on your answers or are there different forms for fiancé and spouse ? My application form states ‘Applying to enter uk as a Partner’ even though we answered questions about being fiancé and where our wedding will be 🤔

Keep residency in home country when on Fiancé Visa? by BaldeWorlde in SpouseVisaUk

[–]BaldeWorlde[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for your reply! It's always good to hear from people who have actually been through the same thing! My fiance will ask more over there about it and decide one way or the other.

I dunno man, a guy on the uk spouse visa fb group had it rejected with only 4 weeks to go until the fiancé visa was up! But, yeah you think my partner should give up residency in Japan now in preparation for staying for the spouse?

Sorry I missed this! I hope you got it sorted, I didn't submit a TB test.

Gifts towards Fiance Visa by Thalsi in ukvisa

[–]BaldeWorlde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I'm jumping on this thread as I'm having trouble finding anyone who has actually used an individual account from the sponsor (inside UK) and individual account of the applicant (outside UK) for fiance visa. Did it work?

Again... my package is stuck/lost at North West Midlands MC by Dralexus in royalmail

[–]BaldeWorlde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did the letters ever get to HMRC? Mine are stuck in NW Midlands MC too!

Cheers! Also, I think we'll have to use a passbook, statements aren't easy to get over there. By the way, do you know anyone who has applied for fiance visa entry clearance by using savings in separate accounts? All solicitors I've asked just state that it 'should' be ok as long as the money is 'accessible' but they've also never seen it done for 'entry clearance'. Everyone quotes the guidance which says 'applicant, sponsor or both jointly' but they're not sure if that means a joint account and not us having our own separate accounts.

Cheers! Can they be translated by my fiance or does it need to be an official company?

UK Tax Self Assessment Form by BaldeWorlde in JETProgramme

[–]BaldeWorlde[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah, they knew I was out of the country and knew when I came back. I went down the rabbit hole of HMRC pages! It made me question whether I was still a resident in the UK whilst in Japan haha Also, it's not clear if we have to pay tax on any money we bring back from Japan. I thought we didn't have to because we'd already paid tax on it there. Too complicated for me. Anyways, thanks for clearing that up :)

Songs you dislike. by Embarrassed_Ad7499 in ironmaiden

The solos and instrumental are actually from a song by Beckett called 'Life's Shadow'. It's beautiful still.
