Hello justwise and co

First and foremost you guys are doing a great job on this UK spouse visa.

My case is kind off different I pray someone can give me a vital reply, I want to apply for spouse visa this march all documents ready didn't know the changes for hubby job would play another part, so my hubby got his job in October 2019 and initial end ofcontract was stated November 2020, only for him to inform me the contract will be terminated this March. My question is should we take the risk and apply with the initial contract of November 2020 or just bone it. Am desperate it's a big cash to play with. Pls reply
Thank you

What he needed was 6months statement 4rm job, bt cinx contract is ending and he startyn a new job,he now needs a statement 4 12months...
So u cn stil go ahead with application bt mk sure u add documents 4rm new job. Or u wait 4 6months in dis new job dn go 4it

Good Afternoon House, I wish hubby and I read this thread before I applied for my Spouse Visa. Anyways, I submitted my online Application on the 22nd of December 2019 and I sent my document the same day. I did my Biometric on the 24th of December 2019. I got a mail on the the 24th of January to come pick my passport, decision was made on the 22nd of January and I was denied.

On my Application, my husband stated that he is a Police officer with the British force and self employed as a Business consultant, we only added his statement of account from the Police force but we didn't add his Evidence of Tax and other related document from his self employment. Hence the refusal.

Today makes it 2weeks that he Appealed for me and he got acknowledgement mail the same day, we choose No Hearing. They have also refunded our Ihs fees.

My question is this, how long does it take to get a feedback from BHC and what is the next step if any?

We will appreciate your feedback. Thank you.

Let me share my 2cent. D next step is u get a letter after 4-5 weeks 4rm d date a pt in ur appeal, d court has 15 weeks 2 gt bck 2u 4ur result cinx u wnt 4 written appeal...

Please could someone help with the below questions.

What are the documents I will need to submit to the UK immigration here in the UK and what the ones my partner in Nigeria will submit with his application?

Can some use a UK divorce absolute certificate for Nigeria court wedding or does one need to obtain another divorce certificate in Nigeria?

Must the partner in Nigeria use a six month bank statement or is 3 months statement sufficient?

Is there any required amount that has to be in the accounts, both partners' account?

Hello house,

First of all, everyone here is doing an amazing job and I’ve learnt a lot since reading this page.

I’ve got a question, my partner and I are doing a registry wedding this March and my family members can’t make it. The only people that will be in attendance are just the two witnesses required for the registry wedding.

Now my question is, can I submit just wedding pictures of my partner and I without no one else in attendance? Do I need to explain the reason why we didn’t have guests and enough wedding pictures in the cover letter?

This might be a silly question but I’m not using any legal representation so I’m trying to make sure I cross all the dots.

Thanks in advance

No ? is silly... U r good 2go. But if u still wnt a lit3 bit of additn 2d photograph, u cn ask pipo around 2 join u in snaping. Wat dey really want is d certificate and 4u 2 prove ur union is genuie... My 3cent

Please i need assistance on my application.

I submitted last month but i forgot to take my original Tb and english test certificate with me. Though i have the copies submitted along with my supporting documents..

I posted the supporting documents through Dhl from nigeria to the assisted scanning hub in Uk. I havn't received an email if my document was received but i tracked it online and saw it was delivered and signed by someone there.
I only received an email that was application is with the decision officer.

Please, is there anything that can be done for the errors i made?

I dont tink der is much u cn do. Just pray God favours u and dey il over look d mistake cinx u scaned a photo corpy already. Cherrs!!!

Hi everyone.

Do they accept court wedding certificate from Abuja courts for spousal visa application?

YES

EngrEngr:
hakeemhakeem theButterfly Thank you for your contributions, I appreciate your views but they’re very incorrect and I just realised it’s my fault you feel so. I didn’t mention that; we already met families and dates had been fixed for the main events. Her parents used their domineering attitude to cancel it for very false reasons that would shock you if I mention.

If I say all the details of what they have done, I will need about three pages on nairaland.

On my honour, my wife is also aware and currently reading these posts so there is nothing sinister about my actions or my relationship with her.

My father inlaw would say,flip d tables and c were it bite... Oga poster,first things first change ur place of worship so u dnt gt 2meet ur inlaws al d tym. D idea of u blocking them on the phone is a no no,its rude and disrespectful and it bits me that ur wife agreed 2 such, can u do dat 2ur own parents.
If ur father inlaw wnts u 2postrat 2him when ever u c him do it , he il gt tied 1day,it tks notyn 4rm u.thank God he said wen eva U C HIM n nt say 4rm ur home self. Lol" meaning in a sec u done with dat. The man might just b tryin ur patience 2gt 2c if u truly love his daughter and ur being strong head shows u dont...
Nigerians do all sought of things 4 papers so dnt blame him if he feels dat way 2was u, wat u need 2do is prove u love his child and juz 2gt ur papers
Go over to his house with ur wife appologies 2him . let ur attitude show u r geniue. Giv ur self 20years 4rm nw ur own kids go don dey marry if ur inlaws do u this same thing u wont like it. Dis na girl wn dey wit dem 4years na, u come under 1year marry her cheaply commot, u self reason am.if dem do ur sister so u go like am

Good evening,
Pls i need a favour, the IELTS exam i did for my uk spouse visa application was the wrong one. I Did the canada instead of the uk skill ..... And uk already refuse my application, they said the certificate didnt appear on the UKVI stuff. Bt i feel there is must be something i can do about it before the 28 days ultimatum. I dont know if there is a way IELTs can help me transfer the needed result so that i can appeal. Pls i need professional advice. Thanks and God bless

My result is attached below

What i feel u shud do is, enrol 4 another exam gt d result and appeal bcs the possibility of d transfer u talking abt is nt garanted. Follow this thrend and ask questions, he just resolved a similar issue as urs. https://www.nairaland.com/5335170/visa-refusal

Hi guys, for those that are using self-scanning or have used self-scanning, do the document type categories matter?

Yes u are right , just found out it was £1200 each he paid

profemebee:
my dear...

it was a bad one.. infact it was like a dream..

the Officer screened my passport, then asked if i had issues getting the visa.. i said NO..

then he asked if i have ever been refused before, i said Once.. and then he flipped and went into ogbanje mode asking why i lied earlier on..

i got confused in my mind telling him he asked 2 different questions to which i replied.. and its also stated in my spousal visa application..

He then took me to the detention center section and gave me a form stating why i might be denied entry and all.. ticked the boxes stating pending my answers to further questions i will know if i will be let in..

guess what na so i see 4 nigerian boys dey display.. and he probably used that pattern to judge me too cos the boys were all going cray.. one was asked if his wife worked and he said no.. then asked if he worked.. na so story dey go for the guy..

then there was another indian looking guy who was asking for his lawyer..

i was on the phone wit my wife, and asked to not use phones.. so i obeyed and waited for the officer who was with another checking some records on the monitor..

fam... i was just chewing gum trying to be calm.. like i didnt go thru all these to stop here..

10mins later he came back wt my passport stamped and said he was sorry he needed to do more enquiries into my case cos of my response.. i told him his question wasnt clear..

asked him abt the detention form.. and he said its nothing... i cud tear it up.. then he took it and squeezed it all. .showing me my stamp.. and saying im free to go.. that i wasnt detained but the form was to let me know i needed to answer some questions..

na so i go carousel to pick my bags only to see them on the floor.. broken and damaged ..

Also, flight from Lagos left like an hour late, so i almost missed the connecting flight to London at Istanbul..

what a day...

got my BRP sha and just dey rest...

Good day house. Please I am asking on behalf of a friend. My friend wants to do court marriage in Bariga registry in Lagos to use it for her spouse visa application, she has gone to the registry and she was told the certificate is very authentic and can be used internationally. But the problem now is that some of her friends told her that local registry is not acceptable by UK Embassy only federal registry at Ikoyi. Please house how true is this? She is a confused. And beside the money for Ikoyi registry is higher, they were charging 60k while Bariga is charging only 15k. I will appreciate your suggestions please. Thank you.

U can use any registry, e no mata. I av a friend who used a local registry visa was issued
