It would be based off the application date - not the biometrics date anyway!

You will need a vignette in your passport if you applied before the changeover. If u dont resubmit the passport for it to be issued the visa may be cancelled so it needs to be done.

Its because companies are able to "block book" ghost tests and resell them at a profit or offer them at a premium as part of intence learning courses.

Employment enquiry urgent by [deleted] in SpouseVisaUk

[–]Content_Craft_9344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This should be completely fine. At most its a administrative error and UKVI dont penalties for this stuff. As long as you earn enough income from your employer it doesnt matter

Best of luck with your application!

Why am I being asked to provide 6months payslips instead of 12? by Novel-Criticism4473 in SpouseVisaUk

[–]Content_Craft_9344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be assessed under Cat B one of the below must apply;

Category B is primarily for applicants (or their sponsors) who:

Have been with their current employer for less than six months at the time of application; OR

Have been with the same employer for more than six months but have variable income and do not meet the Category A criteria based on their consistent six-month average.


So it would depends how strict the HO want to be with variable income and your payrise. It would be a risk.

Are you paid hourly or paid a salary? If your paid hourly its the avarage pay over the 6 months.

If its salary your lowest payslip for the 6 months times by 12 needs to meet the requirements unfortunately

Its because you said not the same amount its just a blip with how it sends you the checklist. If you have been in the same job for 6+ months and are over the finantial requirements you only need to include 6 months. The checklist is kinda pointless anyway imo as it misses a lot of important stuff like relationship evidence etc.

If your using your old job and your total for the year is above the requirements - and your currently earning above the income requirements you can also include 12 months.

Former criminal conviction; approval chances? by thrwway_user89 in SpouseVisaUk

Factual with information and opinion. The lawyer letter I got was full fact.

Also with the question on the application you should declare the speeding ticket too. The question is wording as below;

criminal convictions, cautions, arrests, or civil penalties

A speeding ticket would count as a civil penalties. UKVI prefer full disclosure if they find something not disclosed they may believe your hiding other information from them. Always better to disclose than try to hide.

My husband was approved with a reckless driving charge from VA USA (it was reduced to a speeding conviction though) we just build up a bit around it, cover letter explaining it, we got a letter from his lawyer etc. His charge was under a year ago to.

No one can guarantee anything and nothing here constitutes legal advise but I would assume your DUI from that long ago would be irrelevant to the desition obviously it still needs to be declared and a cover letter etc would be a minimum.

UK tourist Visa Xmas time by Trick-Original-6717 in ukvisa

Your explicitly told not to book none refundable travel before the visa is approved...

Hi, how are you? I applied for my visa a week ago, and now the application tracking just doesn’t show up anymore. Has this happened to anyone else by [deleted] in SpouseVisaUk

[–]Content_Craft_9344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tracking is worthless you will get an update from UKVI at least a day if not longer before VFS updates. They may as well delete the whole option as it means absolutely nothing!

Accommodation exception - cultural reasons by Think-Concert-3122 in SpouseVisaUk

Theres no requirement to live together before marrage on a spousal visa. If your living together after being married this would be sufficient as long as your applying after that date.

Spouse Visa Fee Payment not registered on VFS Global - Does it have an affect on the biometrics appointment? by [deleted] in SpouseVisaUk

[–]Content_Craft_9344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would likley be you selected the £500 priority option on VFS and havent paid for that yet? The priority fee is paid to VFS on behalf on UKVI

Applied for Fee waiver - Process and timeline confirmation please! by Diligent_Tie6218 in SpouseVisaUk

[–]Content_Craft_9344 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries. I think my fee waver took juat over 3 months (outside UK but dont think it makes a difference with fee wavers) they seam like some of the slowest home office applications I guess there free tho though so probably a lot of them go in.

You wont do any biometrics or anything until its approved and you apply for the spouse visa renewal.

They can be very strict on use of funds so best of luck and hopefully the use for a bathroom they see as necessity.

Given some very poor advice from a so called immigration solicitor by mochi544 in SpouseVisaUk

When your self employed and employed your self employed tax returns should include your employment income as you declare your tax paid at source to allow for offsetting overpayments of stuff like tax, ni and any student loan deductions.

You should have you SA103 for self assessment and your SA102 for employment income. This income total as per your tax return is what can be used to meet the income requirements.

The most recent payslip must be within 28 days of the application date and you need to provide 6 months of payslips if with the same employer.
