OK I have got all the information from the government web site as well as a fair bit from the kind people on this forum but I was just wondering if there is any breakdown of the guidelines that the visa officers make there decision from eg.

• what is the minimum income required is there some set guidelines that disposable income should be?
  
• what is appropriate housing?
  
• evidence of a relationship?
  

thanks bread

for what country?

for what type of visa?

etc etc etc

Assuming your questions relate to the UK,

See also 9.3 - Maintenance: General requirements:

There is no explicit minimum figure for what represents sufficient maintenance. However, in 2006 UKAIT KA and Others (Pakistan), the AIT strongly suggested that it would not be appropriate to have immigrant families existing on resources that that were less than the Income Support level for a British Family of that size (See Paragraph 8 of the determination - available on the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal website). If it is more likely than not that the total amount that the applicant and sponsor will have to live on will be below what the income support level would be for a British family of that size, then it may be appropriate to refuse the application on maintenance and accommodation grounds.

Appropriate housing may start from a single bedroom and no overcrowding.
