Hello Justwise, Oxygyne, Lexusgs430 and all others in the house. I want to say a big thank you to y'all for all the advises and knocks given (lol). We succeeded in getting the UK Visa finally.

Applied again second time on 30th July 2018 using priority (after waiting for three months for first visa application which was refused and six months for tribunal to give me reply for appeal for the first refusal, which was still on).
Biometrics done 6th August 2018.
Called Home office UK 10th September 2018 was told decision was taken.
Emailed to collect passport 13th September 2018.
Passport collected from TLS 14th September 2018.
Emailed and sent by post to tribunal to cancel the appeal for the first refused visa 18th September 2018.
Got a reply accepting my email 19th September 2018.
Ported into the UK on 24th September 2018.

All is well now my family and I are happily now in the UK.
Once again I sincerely appreciate. Take care.

Nice!! best of luck in the UK.
Happy it all went well the second time around.

So let me get this right, the tribunal was still on when the most recent application was under assessment?? This is a good example for others who might go through the same hiccup.

Thanks for sharing..

Gdmornin, please i need help about an ireland spouse appeal. Couldnt find the thread for ireland. I submitted an application but it was refused that i didnt prove my family relationship with my EU spouse. Though i included my marriage certificate but they said it wasnt certified and ascertained by relevant authorities.

Sorry about the refusal, painful for sure. But do not be dismayed, because all you need do is to show that your certificate is genuine and certified.

If I may ask, where was the marriage certificate issued??

Wats your advice on laminated original degree certificate guyz? Tho d transcript isnt. Exhausted!

Dydaa:

Why not request a duplicate copy, regardless..... Even if you have to pay to expedite process.......

Each day you waste not applying, adds to your days of exhaustion or take the gamble by submitting laminated copy (risking £3000).........

Dydaa:

Unfortunately, you have to get an original non-laminated copy from the Univ unless there is a way to remove the lamination without damaging the document which is unlikely.

Ok. Tnk you. Theres no expidited service would have opted for that and they can tell me precisely how long it will take. No idea. Lemme jst do iy already...

If you attended an interview, it means your application is truly complicated ...........

We cannot help uncomplicate the complications........ You just have to wait and hope camp david arrives back to camp in one piece ........

NuNu08:

You simply need to find out the full requirements and process for Irish citizens ...........

UK requirements and format vs Irish requirements and formats, might be different...

That is a very complicated application if you had to attend an interview (very rare nowadays I think) but do not fret, you should give yourself at minimum 30 working days after the interview...fingers crossed.

Btw hope the interview went well!!

NuNu08:

Since the reason for refusal is clearly stated in the refusal note, I would advise that you find out how to get proof of family relationship and you should also find out what they mean by "Marriage certificate wasn't certified and ascertained by relevant authorities".

If I find out any relevant information, I'll let you know buy like @lexusgs430 said you should do more research on the requirement for Irish spousal visa asap because your appeal window will have a deadline.

He needs to also highlight some of complications so others too might learn ........

3 emails stating complications. I hope he submitted all documents, incase either has been previously divorced.....

Lexusgs430:

True, he should have gotten a clue of what the issue is from the questions asked at the interview?

Hopefully, he can give insights here??

Hi everyone, I’ve been following the thread for quite sometime. Pls I will appreciate if anyone can assist me.

NARIC sent me an email that they are ready to issue me with the assessment but it will have a disclaimer.
Find below the response from NARIC.
Pls I really need your advise as I was refused earlier because I submitted IELTS General training and the next IELTS test is far away, so I decided to use NARIC 24hrs
Thanks

Can someone with relevant knowledge please respond to @Oy24us urgently, thank you all.

Unfortunately, I am not so adept at NARIC issues.

Hello elders and everyone on the forum. My name is adi

Thank you for this very informative and supportive thread. I am new to the thread but I have read from page 1.
Please may you help me, my question is my wife wants to sponsor me for spouse visa but she has been on statutory sick pay as a result she Earned less then the threshold amount last month. Does that mean we do not qualify anymore or is they a way around this ?

Please if anyone knows the answer to my question or has experienced this please help me

My people good day and hope all is well.
Please I need help, I want to apply for spouse visa to the UK, I've been with my wife nearly two years, she has visited me in Nigeria to see my family and I've visited her in the UK to visit her family.

I just have some questions,
*is she to apply for spouse visa for me or I am to do that myself?
*am I to take the English exam?
*am I to take some injections?
*she earns above the money limit but do I still need to provide my bank statement?
*please what documents do I need to provide apart from marriage certificate??
*the visa is cost at 1500€ right?
*what visa should I apply for exactly on the platform?

Sorry for all this, is just the visa money is very expensive and therefore can't afford to make any mistakes. God bless you all

1 - You can apply together, both of you have login access
2 - If you have a degree certificate, that can be converted through NARIC, go down the naric route. If not you need to do ielts test ( ensure you do the right one)
3 - TB injection
4 - Your bank statements not required
5 - read through thread
6 - it's about £2800 (when you add all bits )
7- Spousal visa

Hi @Aquaman84
1. The application which including forms, letters and supporting documents require the attention of both the applicant and the sponsor. You both need to do it together.

2. If you have a degree (bachelor or master) from a UK university then you do not need to take the English exam, otherwise you might have to take a test and/or you have a NARIC assessment of your non-UK university degree. Read through the past pages, you should be able to know where you stand and the type of English exam to write if you need to.

3. I am not sure about injections but you must be tested for tuberculosis at one of the clinics approved by the Home Office. You would know if you need injections or not after your test. You need the test certificate as part of your submission.

4. If she earns above the required amount then you do not need any other financial evidence apart from hers.

5. It is a long list, you would have to read through this thread to get one of the correct list of documents and how to arrange them for submission.

6. Safely budget between £2,500 to £3,000. Don't worry, you should ordinarily not spend up to the later.

7. Please take note, IF YOU ARE MARRIED (with a genuine marriage certificate from a recognised registry) then you should apply for the *Spousal Visa*

8. You are right, it is expensive so make sure you get all your facts right and submit a full proof application.

All the best.

@All

All payments are done online, if I recall correctly.

Unless you are using VIP service at the center.
