Do you have a signed contract with your name on it? If so that would help. Suitable accommodation would be a property that you own, rent or shared but it would be nice to prove that, and how do you prove it? By having something that shows you have access to the property, like you pay the rent or council tax etc. There might be others on here who have applied and have a better knowledge to myself.

Thanks for your response, I have my assured shorthold tenancy agreement, would that suffice? The flat uses a prepaid meter registered in the landlord’s name so I don’t exactly have other bills in my name. I’ve seen a few people mention letters from landlords and some sort of inspection. Was just wondering what sort of letter was required and how to get the inspection. Would also appreciate if anyone else has any information as to what other documents I’d need to provide.

Hello everyone!

I’m looking to apply for my husband’s spousal visa but was hoping to get some clarification re accommodation. I currently stay in a 4 bed shared accommodation in London, and was unsure if this would qualify as suitable accommodation. I’m hoping I won’t have to move to a new flat as I don’t want to be locked into a 6 months contract since I’m likely to relocate to a different city once my husband is here. Question is, has anyone one applied whilst living in a shared apartment please? What documents did you have to submit, and how do they determine suitability? I haven’t spoken to my landlord yet to see if he’s able to write a letter as I’m unsure what other things I’d need of him. Please help!
