nuakmuaynina Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Hi everyone, I am getting together everything for my Spouse visa and I just wanted to make sure I’ve got all the documents needed. Appointment is in 2 weeks. We are submitting: Me: Colour photo copies of current passport all pages( does this need to be certified?) Black and White copies of old maiden name passport ( this has a lot of the visa stamps in to prove our relationship) 6 months bank statements 6 month wage slips Employment contract Employers letter Tenancy Agreement Council Tax Bill ( saying I’m sole occupier) Photos of property inside and out Selection of photographs/messages/phone records to prove relationship Marriage Certificate and translation Sponsorship undertaking form Cover letter from me Him: Passport Tabien Baan and translation Passport Photos TB Test Cert English test cert-although I think I just need the electronic number from that.. Does he need a letter or anything from his employer? I would of thought as he is leaving (potentially) it wouldn’t matter… Is there anything I have left out? Am trying not to over whelm the application with too many documents-that’s already a lot as it is! Thank you Nina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor1809 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I thought that it was a year's worth of bank statements and pay slips. P60 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeeJay1959 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) 6 months if it is with the same employer, P60 so far as I know is optional but worth including so long as it shows over £18,600, otherwise it looks good.

theoldgit Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I thought that it was a year's worth of bank statements and pay slips. P60 as well. No it's not, as another member has said it's six months worth of pay slips with the corresponding bank statements, a P60 isn't an actual requirement as the decision maker can grant the application without it, but it can be submitted if the applicant desires.

nuakmuaynina Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 There is no point submitting my p60 as before February this year I was self employed, and am not submitting my tax return until next January, so it doesn't have all the information. On the notes of the form it says 6 months if I have been with the same employer, which I have. What I want to know is does my passport copy have to be certified? Also employers letter for my husband?

You can self certify your passport. As you're husband is going to settle in the UK a letter from his employer is irrelevant as he will be leaving that employment, I'm assuming you're referring to his job in Thailand.

nuakmuaynina Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 yes that's correct, his job. Ok great. thanks for your help. If anyone spots anything I've missed please let me know. I think I've been thorough enough, without being overkill. There is a lot of conflicting information on the web! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7by7 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Have you read the specified evidence appendix?Make sure you have everything in there relevant to how you are meeting the financial requirement.BTW, the sponsorship undertaking form (SU07) is not normally required for this type of visa; ECB12.3 Sponsor undertakings on maintenance and accommodation. As with undertakings from an applicant (see above), the ECO should only require an undertaking from a sponsor in exceptional circumstances or for certain categories eg parents, grandparents and other dependent relatives under Rule 317 of the Immigration Rules. (see Maintenance & Accommodation - MAA) But if you've already completed it you may as well include it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excuse me for sounding dumb but if a P60 is not obligatory and only 6 months pay slips and statements are used then how do you verify that you are exceeding £18600 pa. I take it they are trusting on the letter from the employer. Which begs the question why does a self employed person have to supply a years worth, if say they are exceeding £50k pa. Does it matter whether this is over a year or 6 months? It seems that an employed person is trusted more than a self employed person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea why being self employed makes things more difficult. The reason I got a contracted job, was in case I needed to make an application for my husband for a visa- we were planning to settle in Thailand but circumstances changed, as I did not want the hassle of all the documents and extra evidence ( not to mention expense).
