Any, you either address those issues on the application form or use separate paper to do that.

It's important that information they have already about your husband and yourself match, you don't have to panic, what has happened in the past has happened this is the opportunity to start putting record straight.

Well the information they already have from his previous application won't exactly match the new cos we are making sure only correct information is added to the form. Mine isn't a problem. This is something I want so much hence I am this disturbed.and we are expecting our first baby in 4 months . And really will need him here by then.

justwise:
Have a word with your hubby about those previous refusals, let him tell you sincerely why he was refused then address those issues in the application form. Yes previous refusal not properly addressed will cause you the visa then you start fighting the case at tribunal.

Previous refusal relating to fraud/misrepresentation will most likely lead to spouse visa refusal, yes you can appeal but its a long run.

No need for solicitor this is something you can do comfortably reading recent materials here

This is making me extremely nervous and we haven't even started. Yes I am aware of all the reasons and some false declaration. When you say address all those reason in the application form do you mean enter the correct informations this time. Or wrote a cover letter to address each of those issues on this past application. I am so worried because some info on the spouse application won't match up the ones on the previous applications. This is cos I am making sure there is no wrong info or declaration this time. I really don't know what impact this will hv on the application.

I also want to try the priority, not sure if that's even possible.

Portsmouth86:
you dont need a solicitor, past refusals have no affect on your spouse application, this can even be applied if you did have a ban.

I have listed my documents i submitted, I was also married before, and like @Lexusgs430 stated just include all the decree ABSOLUTE not the nisi, (Nisi's you get before the absolute )

as long as you follow the supporting documents guidance notes then you would be fine, if you had maybe some extra for a solicitor I would recommend paying priority,only because now the processing times have gone up to 120 working days, plus this waiting is really mind boggling

Thank you @lexusgs430 and @portsmouth86

Yes we hv all the decree absolutes . Regarding priority will he qualify to use that route due to previous denials?

I wish you the very best portsmouth86

Hello to you all. can I please ask for your advise if possible.

My husbands is about to submit his spouse application in Nigeria. i am not sure if it would be best to use a solicitor for this application due to a few past history. He was married a few times in the past but all marriages dissolved completely . The other thing is that he was denied uk visit visa on 2 occasion but wasn't banned from entering uk. On one of the previous visa apps that was refused, there were mistakes on a few details which was some of the reason for refusal.

What I am wondering is if it's best to use a solicitor . We really don't have that kind of money. Or just prepare the application ourselves. Apart from the issues with the past applications, we have all documentations and meet all the criteria.

Please what do you all think please.
