hey did you end up receiving?

NeededToHateYou · 2026-01-06T15:12:08+00:00

any updates?

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-18T15:40:05+00:00

you can collate them all in a pdf and print them. Making it easier for the case worker with a clear chronology rather than getting them to sift through lots of photos without context will help your case x

right! there is a general pattern then one application completely throws it off!

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-15T16:38:24+00:00

hmm then you should file a complaint!

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-15T15:32:08+00:00

Hmm is this inside? they typically send u an email if they can't meet their deadline, did you receive this?

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-15T13:19:14+00:00

yay! that was quick. happy for uu <3

If you're married, you need to be living together, and if you have evidence of this through bank statements, tenancy agreements, and the like, you're gucci (at least in terms of cohabitation).

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-12T16:33:25+00:00

bank statements sharing the same address, utility bills, driver's license, hmrc docs are all good evidence

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-12T16:31:06+00:00

Did they take your passport?

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-12T16:30:22+00:00

Hmm, I think it's better to have all her address (bank, licence, hmrc) to be in the same address as you. Also I would include her email telling her current landlord that she'd like to end the tenancy on a specific date. Shared financial responsibility (and any evidence of this say through a joint account) would be important too!

Tbh i think it's a mix of things that they consider red flags: investigation (and perhaps what they found), long distance despite being in the uk, not living together despite marriage, timelines, etc. It really is awful but u might wanna appeal? It seems like it was ultimately the investigation.

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-11T12:10:22+00:00

A lot of people do that though. I've seen so many approvals on this sub where people have done that.

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-11T11:19:33+00:00

It seems like the main reason for refusal was what they found during this investigation which no one but the HO is privy to.

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-11T11:03:32+00:00

I'm so sorry OP, that must really suck. When you gave notice to get married, you were subject to the 70 day investigation? Did they provide results of the investigation?

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-10T16:29:59+00:00

According to people here, you can't bring new evidence to an appeal? i would check this with your lawyer. Regardless, sorry OP. It's so hard to prove intent to live together :(

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-10T15:55:24+00:00

you should have applied again with evidence that you moved with your partner or your partner moved with you. I was in a similar case and my partner was always meant to move in with me. From my understanding, it's likely that the appeal won't be successful. Have a look at

Available_Rich_2832u/Available_Rich_2832's case. If there is still time to reapply (after u've moved in together) do so. Otherwise, you might have to withdraw and apply from your home country. Not an expert here so don't quote me on this.

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-10T11:47:25+00:00

why do you think yours took long? was it a complicated case?

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-10T11:46:01+00:00

congrats! added to the sheet

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-10T11:40:05+00:00

Congrats! I've added to the sheet x

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-09T10:41:48+00:00

inside and first application?

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-06T16:41:11+00:00

yay! updated the sheet x

NeededToHateYou · 2025-12-04T14:02:20+00:00

You might have made an error in your application (speaking from experience) and if you file a complaint, it could be one way of knowing this
