Does anyone know where the visa application centre in London is? I’d like to submit over there instead of having to post all the documents to my husband in Asia.
Hi i have recently applied for my wifes visa. I have given my supporting documents through the scanning service. Can you please tell me do i get a notification or confirmation if they have received my documents or not. Thanks
Asc
Finally, I am very happy to see your new video...well done and thank you for the update, god bless you and your husband.
Thanks for the video! Lots of great info; two questions;
1. Do you know how I can find out if a man overseas VFS centre has scanning facilities? My wife will be doing her biometrics in a place called Pune (near mumbai) and I am struggling to get a response from them directly).
2. I am just arranging our photos for relationship docs; did you print yours on a home printer or get them printed professionally? I am a bit worried that the quality might not be there with a home printer. ( I watched your relationship docs video which was super helpful)
Finally a video again. We missed you!!!! And btw, first view ❤️❤️
Aww, thank you for staying loyal :). Hope you like the video!!
Please take us through what you did for extension of visa past 2.5
Thanks you so much. It is a big yes for me today. Your video is really useful
Aww wow, that’s amazing news!! Congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you 😁😁😁!!
hi
my wife is applying for spouse visa and i have a baby 2 years old. how can she apply for baby. is that in her same application or has to apply separate using 'Apply FM Child' link. please advise me
thanks for the update. Indeed the form is different. There is no place for the BRP collection. good video, thanks. How did you receive the decision letter? Was it attached to your passport when you received it back with the 1 month sticker?
Hi, not sure if it was better before or now really. My husband got the letter with his passport but a lot of people are asking me this question recently so it sounds like they aren't giving the letter out anymore
Just wanted to ask, if I apply online within the UK on behalf of a partner outside the UK. Can I take documents to the appointment I make within the uk? Or does the partner take documents to their biometric appointment to be scanned? Thank god I done it months ago. The new way is complicated
Hi, yes this new way is very complicated, even for me.
From what I've been told, you have 3 options. They can either be scanned from home (either you or the applicant I guess), they taken to the biometrics appointment by the applicant and scanned there or the sponsor can take them to their nearest visa centre to be scanned there. Definitely look into this though as this is just what I have heard, I don't know for sure
Ruks&Fam thanks for a quick response. I’m trying to help a friend. And recently noticed how silly, expensive and complicated the procedure has become. Greedy government lol
Yup, tell me about it 🙄
Hi Ruks! My husband and I won an appeal April 2019 and resubmitted my UK visa application to VFS Hongkong. My question is.. until today, my visa is not yet release. It's already 4 months.. I'm very worried now. Do you have any idea how long it will take for a won appeal? Thank you
it takes maybe 58 weeks . thats why I'm going to make a new application ...
Does my wife have to be in the U.K. when I land? I need to come about 2weeks earlier than rest of family to work on the house repairs and paint.
Hmm, I'm not sure she does actually. My husband was asked where I was now but I don't think it would have mattered where I was lol
I was going to ask, do you need to own your property before you apply? Or if you are in a shared property will that be fine to use??
Grace Ab Hi, no no you don’t need to own your own property. I was living at home at the time of our application. As long as the others living with your are ok about it and the housing report proves it won’t be overcrowded with an additional person then you’re all good 😊
I'm going to submit my online application on the 26th October 2019. I'm flying out on the 27th october to see my wife and spend more time with her. Im going yo book her biometrics appointment for the 4 or 5th of november 2019. Im returning on the 9th novmeber 2019 and will be submitting all documents on the 12 novemeber 2019. I have everything ready all the financial documents will be within the 28 day rule too (they will all be around 21st 22nd October 2019) I got married in December 2018. I would like to know do all supporting documents need to be within the 28 day rule. Will I be able to submit the photos of my visit between 27th October- 9th November 2019 when handing in the application on the 12th November 2019 ?
ALLHAMDULILAH, my husband got his visa today! Thank you Ruks for all your videos ❤️❤️❤️ Can’t explain how happy i am!!!
After how long he get his visa
Habiba Naz
It was after 6 weeks and 1 day without counting Christmas holiday, as it’s usually closed that week.
With it is 7 weeks and 1 day, also I didn’t pay priority
@@Mree1108 Means you applied on the same date as mine but I didn't get any reply it's so stressful now .
Habiba Naz what date was yours?
@@Mree1108 My was 12 of December and what date you receive the in processing email
Hello
Thanks so much for all your help my husband got his visa in December just in time for Christmas 🎄
I read about it online but your videos were super helpful
Thanks
Aww congratulations 🎉🎉!! What perfect timing 😁!
Do you need to pay for a new immigration health surcharge IHS when applying for a spouse visa inside the UK when you have a current IHS in a student visa? Thanks
Hi Emmy, I don’t know much about the rules on a student visa. My guess is yes, as my husband’s next application will be made from inside the U.K. and he will be expected to pay again
Ruks&Fam thank you
Hiya. Thank you so much for your videos!! How much would you say you spent altogether on the visa? :)
Hiya! I think we roughly paid around £2,500 in total. That is with £0 on solicitors fees and when the IHS fees were £600 😮
Thank you for this, although it’s now even more stressful I appreciate the video. I’m so stressed about this. I hope I can do this.
You’re welcome 😊. Aww, I know how stressful it is cuz I was the same when I did my hubby’s application with no Ruks&Fam videos and no previous knowledge! But I got through it and so will you!!
Ruks&Fam Thankyou so much! I will get through this! Since you did it I know I can! Thankyou for the motivation ❤️you are such a blessing 🙏🏽 XX
Hanane Love you can do this be faithful don’t doubt yourself. Just work together with your spouse I truly believe this is why it’s so complicated to test your bond work through this and pray you got this!
@@Bobbybalboa735 Thankyou for your heart warming words ❤️ You are so right! We can do this! ❤️ And your words of encouragement and belief has honestly made it feel more possible. God's blessing and our prayers everything will be fine! Thank-you and bless you for your lovely comment. I will keep this comment to look back at always ❤️ xx
Hanane Love always you already have this victory now just go through the process all is well! God bless.
Hi. . Have you and your husband met befor he gets his uk visa anywhere else? Was it easy to get the visa for him?. Coz me and my wife wants to meet in an European country.. So I was wondering if that possible?.thnk you so much for your informations.
Hi. Yes, my husband and I met a couple of times before we married in 2017 (years apart though and were not in a relationship until 2016. I have stamps in my passport to prove that I went over a couple of times but no proof that we met (except for in 2016, I had pictured from then which I provided also). I only met him in his country but you can meet your partner in Europe if you like, your wife will need a Schengen visa to do that so she will need to apply at the embassy of the European country you want to visit. I'm not sure if you will need one or not as UK citizens didn't need one before Brexit but we are post Brexit now so not sure if the rules have changed.
Hey Ruks hope you are well ❤ Thank you sooooooooo much for all of your videos (including this) So helpful! Stay blessed always, lots of prayers for you and your husband xx
Rameesah Majid Ameen!! Aww, you’re very welcome!! Thank you so much for watching them 😊!! Best of luck with your application 🙏🏼!!
Im a canadian citizen my husband is sponsoring me to the uk...how long is the processing time? also what are somethings we need to really make sure of? im really worried...we also have a son
Love your videos Ruks
Aww, thank you so much and thank you for watching them :)
Hi. I’m just wondering if anyone applied on a 12months payslip period (category B) on the spouse visa which is if you haven’t been in your current employment for 6months. Also my other question is if one of your employers refused to provide you a letter in regarding to your employment with them. Can I just put the job contract and the payslip. Is that enough. I will be getting letters from the other organisations I have worked with within the past 12months, contract and payslip as I am going through the 12months route. Please all replies with be welcome. I need the information urgently. Thanks.
Hi Kari, I don't know many of my viewers who have applied under Cat B but I don't think it will be too complicated. Just make sure that it is clear when you left and started each job and make sure all 12 months of bank statements correspond to all 12 months of wage slips. I would strongly suggest you provide a P60 if you can. Though it is an optional document it will help further prove your annual income. I would definitely take the time to help them work it all out by doing the maths for them on a separate A4 sheet of paper (not sure how this will work now with the scanning system, before you could submit anything in the post) but do it just in case as they can miscalculate and then reject the visa which you don't want.
It's a shame you are unable to get a letter from one of your employers. Is there a HR team you can speak to if the manager is not co-operating? Contracts are optional and not mandatory so they aren't usually accepted documents but surely they cannot expect you to get such a letter from an ex employer 🤔. Be very explanatory of your situation and you may be ok. I would suggest you seek professional advice and may post on an immigration forum. There is immigrationboards, expatforum and also a Facebook page called uk immigration and visas
Hi ruks,
wanted to know which number did you use to call the home office regarding the documents?
Smita Thapa Hi, I have a link to the contact information for UKVI in the description box, under the heading USEFUL LINKS 😊
Hi Ruksana,
Do you know where I can look or who I can contact about bringing my sister and her family to the UK.
She is around 40 or so and her Husband and x3 kids (under 19).
My family didn't bring her when we came to the UK :( (My father came here like in 1980 or something.)
Is there anything that we can do?
Would it be better for my sister to come first or her husband? (Does it matter).
Thanks.
Hi, I only really know about spouse visas as it is something I have had to apply for to bring my husband here. I have no legal background and am not a solicitor so don't know much about bringing others here sorry. I can only advise that you seek professional help. Many solicitors can work from home so you should be able to speak to someone. There isn't anyone I can recommend as I haven't used any but I'm sure many will come up with reviews if you were to google ones in your city.
Ruksana Ahmed ok, thanks
Hya the NHS cost when paid and if that person cme to UK.when he registered with gp.what option he click on prescription?
Hey, the applicant will still need to pay for their prescription. We used the unemployed option while he was not working and then employed when he started working
Hello
I will be more than happy to assist you in UK visa. kindly drop me an email at romasa@relianceimmigration.com or whatsapp me at 03452001524
So are those 1200£ NHS included in the application price (1523£) or do i must pay both amounts? Thanks
I had to pay both amounts
You can also upload scans online which I think is the easiest way. If the commercial partner is VFS, they allow all documents to be uploaded and then the applicant would only take a signing form and passport to the biometric appointment.
Curry Cottage Indian Takeaway Hi, thank you for sharing, that is really helpful for everyone to know!! I wasn’t aware of that at the time but it deffo is a much easier option and one that I would prefer tbh, especially if the closest visa application centre is out of town
Finally ruks you are back 😁
😁😁😁
Hi i have applied for spouse visa submit my document and did the biometric 8 months ago and i got email to submit my passport in 29 aug 2019 i submitted it and till now no response but i got email from home office they mentioned that i have to wait they are doing checks and enquiry in home country and UK so what do u think about it how long it will take after this?
Oh wow. That’s a long time for them to make a decision. Unfortunately, I’m not sure what this means and how much longer it will take them. Maybe you should give them a call? There should be a link to their contact information in my description box under “useful links”
In the centre they don't scan more than 10 pages of chatting conversations and pictures that prove ur relationship, and it's not enough, and there is second option is scan all the documents by my self so that I can scan more than 10 pages of chatting conversations and our pictures, please what do you think about it
agrzim ifri Hiya, well it is true that you don’t need as much as we like to send. I know some people who only send one pic per event/outing and there visas were still accepted. I liked to send a few pics from one event/outing. If you can scan the documents yourself then that’s great but as far as I’m aware, I’m not sure that is an option so I can’t really comment
@@RuksanaAhmed thank you for your reply and I find out that there's no more than 10 pages of chatting conversations and pictures even if I scan them by my self (self service), and 4 screen shot per ech page with the date and the most important pictures, and I want to ask you that my wife she has different sources of income but it's more than 18600£ , do you think it's ok
agrzim ifri oh right, hmm that’s not fair really as the more you can provide the stronger the evidence I guess. You will have to choose your best photos I guess.
I’m pretty sure other sources of income are acceptable such as if she rents out a house that she owns
@@RuksanaAhmed no just income but I will chose the best pictures and hope they will say yes because really distance relationship it's a hel lol, thank you for your consideration and I wish you the best♥
@@imadifri7680 hello bro could you tell me about the documents that you took with you in the biomatric appointment and also if that possible could you send me the link of the appendix form which you used because I really tried to ask many people and no body answer me
Hi Ruks,can you guide on latest Covid conditions on a spouse visa (EEA Family permit,)
My application and biometrics completed on 15 Mar 2020 in Dubai ,I am yet to receive my passport pending over six months.
I have sent an email to customer help on 9 Sept 2020 ,on 16 Sept got a reply of definite delay,but most confusing is no turn around time given. How long will one have to wait ??please help
Hiya! Unfortunately there are big delays due to the pandemic and people are having to wait 6 months + for their visas. There are so many people in the same situation as yourself. I am glad to hear that you have emailed them which is what I would have advised anyway but the home office never give a timescale. I would wait for another month and then maybe contact your local MP and see of they will contact the home office on your behalf.
Hi Ruksana, so you know where is the visa application centre in the UK? I live in London but don't mind travelling to a next city
Asa a Hey, I don’t I’m afraid, there will definitely be one in London, surely. Maybe it tells you at the end of the applications 🤷🏻♀️
@@RuksanaAhmed thanks
Hello sister just wanna ask u about the letter that ur husband had to write
Hey, my husband didn’t write a letter. We only submitted a sponsor letter
hello habibti ! . I wanted to thank you for all your help. You’ve been more helpful than all the immigration solicitors we have seen. I watched all of your videos and read all the guidances gathering 600 pages documentation. I got my visa today after 3 weeks wait. I didn’t pay for premium. Just standard. Shukram sister.
Carla V Oh wow!! That’s amazing news!! Congratulations 🎉🎉, I am really happy for you both 😁😁!!

I have been successful in an FM Appendix Visa for spouse, i am happy to share anything i know
Hi I just submitted my documents in Singapore. They did ask for my supporting documents, but I said my wife will be uploading in the UK. But they said I should be the one submitting with the application. Do you think there will be a problem in my wife uploading it?
Is OC1 form is mandatory. What all suporting documents needed please reply. Im in the same boat
Thareshan Tharmalingam Hi, all countries have different rule unfortunately so it’s very important to research before an make sure your country follows the same rule as Bangladesh. Most countries rules are the same as Bangladesh but front what you are saying it seems Singapore’s is not.
If you can go back and submit them at the biometrics appointment then I would highly suggest it
Hi Ruks! Love watching your videos! All your videos helped me throughout my husbands spouse visa application which got approved 2 weeks after his biometrics appointment.
Aww that's amazing!! Thank you so much for continuing to watch my videos even though your hubby's visa has been approved.
Yes, I am planning on doing videos on his FLM application which will be in Nov next year, I'm sure it will come round quickly but stick around for that :)
@@RuksanaAhmed Definitely will do! I also just have a quick question? How long after your husbands arrival in the UK did he register for the NHS? x
Aww thank you! We went to the doctors in the same week of his arrival
@@flutramustafa4136 Hi Sis. Did you use the priority service? And around which month did you submit everything? My wife has submitted her application using the priority service and I was wondering what the possibilities of hearing a decision back as quickly as yours would be. Gives me hope! Thanks :)
@@ShahidulIslam-rr2ue Hi Shahidul, my husband's biometrics appointment (our documents were scanned to the uk Home Office) was in Kosovo on 16th January 2019 and his passport with his visa arrived on 30th January 2019. No we didnt use priority service. Even though he got his visa in January, the visa was only valid from 25th March though.
In the application he wrote that his potential flight to the UK would be around 5th April because that is jis birthday and he would like to spend in with me in the UK lol so probably thats why his visa was valid from 25 March.
Hope this helps!
Hello there... Waitong for the sequel FLR🤩🤩🤩
Keep watching, soon hopefully
Could you please post a video of extension of visa how to apply for extended application for visa after 2.5 years
Hi, I do plan to post those video when we make our extension visa application for my husband. I’m not a solicitor and neither to I work in immigration so until we go through it, I wouldn’t know what’s involved
Ruks&Fam okay thanks
@@RuksanaAhmed Hey mam I'm from Canada but I apply UK spouse visa last week of June 2019.... but I'm still waiting for my visa.🙇
How much time to take these days for spouse visa applications.?
@@mehar8731 still I'm waiting my Visa reply 4 week complete but not any reply hope inshAllah soon good news 😁😁
@@meshifarhan9807 yup I hope so✌
I was in the UK the day you shot this video the heat was legendary. Fun fact. I had just come in on my spouse visa like 10days before lol so it was a hot welcome.
Haha, you got a very nice welcome then. The weather was completely the opposite when my husband came. It had snowed the week before his arrival, the week of his arrival and the week after. Many places had closed due to the snow but it was his first time seeing snow which was pretty cool for him.
Hi there Plz help me I have studio flat I live there for 3 ys. Alone now I get married. I work full time 11 month. I have tenancy agreement. 3 year s. I need inspection. ? Can I apply for my miss Becoz Some one Saying u can’t apply studio flat
Hey hope ur doing well
I was watching some Videos on CZcams about immigration laws etc and I came across your video
I was wondering if you could give me a bit more insight into what it is that I need to show as proof or letters to the home office when I apply for my husband who is also from Bangladesh but at the moment he is currently on a work Visa in Bahrain
Look forward to your reply thank you x
And btw u tried emailing u, but it keeps saying email address is not in use x
Hi, sorry. I am no longer using that email address and have decided to only respond to CZcams comments. Your process maybe slightly different to mine so I think it’s best you seek advice from a solicitor. I don’t know much about the law in all this really. I just made sure I understood for my husbands application
hellooo dear
finally alhamdulillaaah i got my uk visa

Ive done only biometric here in my country but my husband went to the nearest place to submit but he need to get an appoinmnet. My husband apply my visa application tjrough visa4uk can he log in there and get appoinment for submitting mu documents?
Hi Irene, unfortunately I am not too sure with these new changes. Hopefully one of my other viewers can help you with that. Didn't your husband ask them when he went there? I would suggest searching online "how to book biometrics appointment uk"...things along those lines. There must be some information out there
@@RuksanaAhmed its ok already thanks
Thnks for this video
Thank you for watching 😊
Hi there sister, just a question as I sent of the document but today they send me an email
From New Delhi saying to upload all documents online. Has anyone experienced that, because I’ve sent everything off through the solicitor or is it a misunderstanding. Thank you
All documents are uploaded online. Sending them in is a very old method. You should speak to your solicitor
@@RuksanaAhmed I have spoken to solicitor they have emailed them saying what they should do and if need be they will send them online as it’s 159 pages and large file. I’ve got all the correct information do you think it’ll be ok ?
Sounds like it’s getting sorted!
@@RuksanaAhmed inshallah sister
Will you be doing another video when it’s time to apply after 2.5 years. I hope you do ...because I found your videos very useful. Have you started to collect any documents for it yet? If so will you message me thanks.
Hi, I am hoping to do so but we will have to wait and see what situation we are in as if it was to happen now, there is no way I could. I have not even looked into it yet. We still have a year and 2 months to wait before we his visa runs out.
Allah bless you, ameen, you inspired me to submit the spouse visa..you gave me the confidence, may you remain blessed
Is oc1 form mandatory
ishmaelslife Ameen!! Thank you so much for your blessings!! I am so happy to hear my videos have helped you with the visa application!! Inshallah, the visa will be granted for you soon!! I remember you in my duas!
happy Hi, I would highly suggest you fill out an OC1 form if you are living in a house that you own or that a member of your family owns as it will prove whose house it is. So with us living in my parents home I was able to prove that they had the right to give us permission to stay with them. Most solicitors do suggest you get the title deeds of the property if it is owned
@@RuksanaAhmed thank you so much..
Hi did you get your husband’s birth certificate translated in English and also where did you do this because I have my wife’s birth certificate in Bengali thanks
Hey, my husband already had a copy of it in bengali and English. My husband said you need to go to either city corporation or the union with the original certificate and they will translate it for you. Birth certificates aren’t mandatory documents, they are optional so you don’t even have to submit it really
What about there's a option for self uploading so that we can just take the biometrics
Hello
I will be more than happy to assist you in UK visa. kindly drop me an email at romasa@relianceimmigration.com or whatsapp me at 03452001524
Hiya, yes sorry I wasn’t aware of it at the time but it is definitely another option 😊
Hey girl...thanks for all your posts, great info! Quick question...what did you mail your supporting documents in? A box? This is a HUGE amount of paper!!! Thank you x
Hiya! Aww thank you!! I used a large binder clip and a postage bag. I have a video on this "part 9 posit and packaging", you'll know what I mean once you've seen that.
Hi Ruks, thank you for making this video! Does this mean we don't need photocopies and originals bundles anymore as everything will be scanned?
Hope you and your husband are well, wish you both a very happy married life! xx
Hey Hannah, we are both well thank you. I’m not too sure really. I don’t think you’ll need a copies bundle, just an original that they can scan. I would say to be on the safe side you can still make a copies bundle and if they don’t take it. At least you have a bundle you can refer back to cuz the originals never stay intact. It’ll help you with your extension application
@@RuksanaAhmed thank you for your reply xx
Hi, can your provide official correspondence for any of the information you’ve just shared?
Hi, like I say in the video, these are just the things I get messaged about regularly and I have not looked into them myself so you should do your own research.
I have briefly googled it and found this website mention it in the second to last paragraph: www.ukmarriagevisa.com/new-ukvi-online-visa-application-process-has-caused-great-confusion.html
Thank u for ur explanation
Plz tell me about the duration to get ur visa ?
Wissam Semri No worries, thanks for watching. It is 12 weeks for a standard visa application and roughly 30 days for a priority application
Can you please help me what can I put in header address for landlord letter thanks
Hey, you could put something like “Re: Accommodation for sponsor name, in support of visa application”
Salaam o Alikum,
I hope you are doing well, I m going to apply for my husband and kids visas.Could you please explain how much is the visa fees and the visa fees are same for both children and adults?
Hi, I am well thank you. Hope you are too! I think the visa fees have changed since we made our application, I think it is roughly around £1500 now just for the visa. Unfortunately, I don't know much about the rules regarding children. I know they need to have their own separate application form but I am not sure if the fees are the same for them or not. I think it is something you may need to see a solicitor about. Sorry I can't help but I hope you find someone who can. Best of luck!
Dear sister,
I hope you are doing well and thank you so much for your reply.
I have submitted my husband and kids applications and visa fees for children are the same as adults and your all videos were really helped me to complete my applications and now waiting for decision,thank you so much and God bless your family.
kamran fouzia Hi!! Aww that’s great!! Best of luck with your application!! I really hope you hear back from them soon! Thank you so much for letting me know the fees for children are the same as adults. It will really help me when others ask and if people find your comment so the extra knowledge is definitely appreciated!
Hi ruks. Hope your well and living happily ever after haha. Just a quick question please, I know you didn't recieve call from home office during the application period . But I've heard lots of people are getting calls, my friend was also called and questions were asked. I know your very good at finding information, If you can make a video regards to what type of questions do you thing they might ask. I'm scared from the call as I don't want to mess anything up. If video can't be made, please reply to this message. Many many many thanks. Again your amazing person I greatly appreciate your help. Thank you.
Amir Tarakhail Hi Amir, we are both well and happy thank you. Hope you both are too. UKVI tend to call people that have more than one job and usually the call is regarding their second job. But the questions usually consist of things like, where you work, your role, how long you’ve been there, how much your earn, how long you’ve been earning that amount, how you get paid, how many people you work with, I’ve heard they can even ask questions like what colour is the front door. So deffo be prepared for questions like that, they usually then call the employer and ask them the same questions to make the answers match I guess. I would also suggest you know basic information about your relationship, when you met, how you met, when you got married, how long you’ve been married, how old you were when you got married, how old your wife was, where you got married, her date of birth, etc. Hope that helps!
@@RuksanaAhmed I can't thank you you enough. Thankyou so much :)
Nice video, but you missed one option which is SELF UPLOAD DOCUMENTS SERVICE which totally free. information regarding to this on VFS and TLS both website and I watched a video about this someone recorded while doing self upload just for helping others like you doing.
Palash Mahajan Ah yes, I heard about the self upload after making this video. It is something I can mention in my next video however I will not be making a walkthrough video in it so it’s good that there is someone who has made one 😊
Thanks a lot :)
Anytime! Thanks for watching :)
Can you tell me about ielts life skills a1 test...when and how to registration this test in bangladesh ..plz😊
Kaniz Mazumder Hi, the ielts test certificate is valid for 2 years so it’s not really a problem if you do it sooner or later. I’m not too sure how you register for it. My husband joined a hexas class in sylhet and he attended classes for a few months before they booked the test for him when he was ready. So you may need to find a class somewhere. My husband went to, Hexa Alhamra Sylhet and his test was in Valley Garden, Sylhet 😊
Dear Sister,
My wife Have 5 months wage slips she will go on maternity leave in December 5th this month and will return 2 months later and work for another 2 months will She still be able to apply for a spouse visa?
Farman Afridi,
She can use her maternity payslips bcz I had the same situation and I showed them maternity payslips as well.
When you apply via visa4uk, will it tell you where you have to go and so on
I applied for my husband in 2017 on the government website so I’m not too sure about these changes. There’s want much guidance for me in where I should send my supporting documents so I don’t know how much guidance there will be in terms of where you will need to take your documents
@@RuksanaAhmed do u have any idea what link tk log kn to get appointment for my husband to submit my aupporting docjments? My documents is all witb him.
Ive done my biometric but all i need now is where to get an appointment for my husband to submit my supporting documents in UK? Is there any address allowed to bepost
Hi Irene, I know I am too late with my reply but I don't know the answer to your question anyway so would not have been great help. Hope you got it all sorted in time.
@@RuksanaAhmed its ok everything alright now tnx
Hey ruks. Hope your well 😀😀😀😀
Hi Nasar, I'm good thanks. Hope you are too!! :)
Going to do my wife's application this month inshallah. Should I hold off until she has done ESOL & life in the UK test over there before I start the process? She also doesn't have a 🇧🇩 passport yet so just wanting to find out if those need to be done first.
Such supportive videos, good job sister 👍🏼
hadz001 Hey! Deffo wait until your wife has a passport, has done the IELTS exam (not ESOL). She doesn’t need to do the Life in the UK test just yet, it’s mainly for when she applies for indefinite leave so don’t worry about that now. Best of luck!!
@@RuksanaAhmed ahh i see.. She has mentioned that she doesn't need to life in the UK test yet but I said she does. I guess I'll have to admit she was right 😂
Yes I intend to wait till she has those first and will have to wait now because of the current pandemic! Any keep up the good work sis and I hope hubby & family are well 👍🏼
Al7amduliah got visa on 2/8/19. I applied in 30/4/19.

Hlw dear
M submitted my visa today visa office confirm that they didn’t get some documents and again submit this documents but they give only 10 day but it’s not easy to collect the documents 6month pay slips give 2week 😕 what I am doing
WHAT do you mean
Home office sent a mail my documents are scanning error rescan documents last Friday I rescan documents to home office
Orpita Nipa did you scan them yourself ?
Yeah add and when they wanted documents also second time sent documents few day ago 🧐
Hi Orpita Nipa, I am a little confused at what you mean. So you scanned the documents but they are saying they didn't get them so are asking for them? Can't you just rescan the same ones or send the same ones in? Why do you need to weeks? Are you thinking of giving them your next wage slip that is due? I don't think you have to do that.
Hopefully you will be able to make video for the extention
Yes!! I am hoping so as well, not long for us now, we have only a year left to go 🙈
Hi Ruks
Thanks for the latest video. I want to say a BIG THANK YOU sharing your ocean of knowledge about spouse visa . I must admit you are better than any professional immigration advisor or a solicitor. I have followed and watched repeatedly all your videos . I applied for my wife visa without going to solicitors. My wife got visa within 90 days and now she's with me in London and we are living together happily.
I wish you and your husband wellness and happy married life.
Thank you once again .
Aww thank you so so much for your kind comment!! I am so happy to hear that you were able to apply for your wife’s application without the need of a solicitor, that is amazing!! Congratulations to you both!! I’m glad you are finally enjoying life the way it should be...together!!
did you pay 4 priority visa? congrats btw

Dear Ruksana,
Firstly I would like to say thank you for the videos you have uploaded. My wife has come to the UK on a spouse visa gaining Indefinite Leave to Enter status on a Pakistani passport via UAE Dubai. Although the visa application process was different from yours for your husband and I did receive some advise here and there from others, your videos, especially on how to organise the documentation proved invaluable. Many lawyers were asking extortionate rates to give generic advise and saying hello. Also, the Home Office was a difficult organisation to get information from, even stuff that should be easily available and is seemingly hidden and spread out on their website. Thank you for all your support, both technical and emotional. To know we were not the only one to go through all this was motivating.
I am now in the process of getting my wife to settle here. I'm trying to find out how we go on our honeymoon and how she can open a bank account and how she can register with the local GP. In fact, 99% of the information online is on how to get into the country but very little on what the steps are once you are here. I wondered if you had any advise on that. Anyways, thank you for sharing your experiences and I wish you and your husband all the best.
Nabeel
Hey Nabeel, really sorry for the late reply. I’m assuming you have probably managed half of these things by now.
It didn’t take much to get my husband registered at the dentist, the dr asked for proof of address and accepted the address we provided on the tb certificate. My husband applied for an NI card soon after her arrived and he used that letter along with his BRP card and passport to apply for a bank account with hsbc. He’s been here almost 2 years now, he’s got a full uk driving license, a help to buy isa and a credit card lol
Congratulations on getting your wife across to the U.K. I’m glad to here my videos were helpful even though the process was quite different 🎉🎉
PLEASE DO NOT USE VISA4UK...IT DOESNT WORK WITH THE NEW SYSTEM, GO ON GOV.UK. THANK YOU
Thank you so much for the updated link!!
Plez tell me how much time take uk spouse visa appeal
Sumaira Jabbar Hi, I’ve never really dealt with an appeal so I’m not sure how long it takes but I have heard it can take up to a year. If this is what you are going through, I am really sorry to hear it. Sometimes it’s better to re apply instead of appeal
Sister
Who needs to pay £1200 NHS charge??
Hi, the sponsor or the applicant can pay it :)
@@RuksanaAhmed did you pay it?
@@soccerworld670 Yes, I paid the IHS fees online from the UK and my husband paid the visa feed in Bangladesh at his biometrics appointment
Thankyou so much for such useful information. How to find visa center in uk online? Please share link or guide me.
Hi, I don’t have any links. You can try and google it or you can click on the link for contact information for UKVI. It is in the description box under “useful links”. You can have speak to them if you can’t find it online
Thanks for the quick response ma’am. Just wondering. If we have to go physically there to submit our documents, then there is no need of make two copies of our documents (original copy)? Like after scanning the documents shall we take our documents back with us isn’t?
Well no one has mentioned anything about whether they take a copies bundle with them or not. Personally, I would still create one (to keep for myself, which I did) and take that with me in case they want to keep any documents out of it. If they don’t then I have my own pile that will stay intact ready to refer back to when we make the next application. Yes, you will have your original like but you will need to take things back out of that pile and use them for other things like we did for our schengen visa application, so the original pile never stays in tact
@@RuksanaAhmed Hello, Thanks for your reply. One thing I'm very confused about. Me and wife talking since last year on WhatsApp, the chat is massive. Should I export the chat and save as a text file in my laptop or have to Screen Shot from my mobile and then print it off. Please mention how pages it would be at least?
shaheer farooq Hi, my husband and I had a long chat, after exporting it I realised it was over 1000 so there was no way I was going to print that so I decided to take 10 screenshots for each month we were talking so I think in total I had 19 pages of whatsapp chats
Hi Ruks. When are you going to make spouse visa video. Hope your well
I’m good thanks, hope you are too. Sorry I’ve been away from CZcams for a while but we will be applying for our extension visa at the end of this year which means we will be collecting our documents soon so I will be uploading again soon hopefully!

Shaik Lubna Hi, unfortunately I don’t know what is happening at the home office with the corona virus. It is best to check on the government website for more information
Ruksana Chowdhury if the office get starts so in how many days i will get my visa
Shaik Lubna Visas are typically issuer after 3 months. If the office has been closed then the visa maybe delayed by a few weeks
Ruksana Chowdhury thanku ruks..hav a good day😊

Thank you for this i m interested UK job please help you visa i waitind
You got your visa right? Well to get a job you can ask people you know. Make a cv explaining who you are, your education, past jobs you’ve done and the skills you have learnt and then either apply for jobs online (indeed) or hand a copy into the place you want to work
Ruks, can you please not start a video like that again, because it looked like you were about to give some very bad and devastating news! Lol! :P
IHS fees doubling is bad news in my opinion!! Lol
@@RuksanaAhmed Yes but it's not devastating news, no? ;)
ArdoBlueMoon It definitely is for me 😭😭
hi
I don't understand why you are posting this video you say you not an immigration adviser or a solicitor plus your husband application was done last year and things have changed but you can't really answear all question on the video you yourself say you heard this and that and check for yourself please do not mislead people by posting these video I believe you haven't the knowledge in immigration and your advise could be a big bill and a mistake for someone taking your advise little knowledge is no good in this field people's life on on the line I'm sorry if I've offended you but I just wanted you to understand you don't know yourself the rules and you are posting videos these immigration fees are no joke spouse visa fee ihs fee thousands I don't want people to get hurt
She's been helping more people than your essay comment. Maybe you should mind your own business instead.
@@amirtarakhail2 true she help alot other people's before I apply my Visa I watching her video I got alot of information thanks again great girl she share her experiences and help alot
Thank you for all the videos, the sad news is my wife willing to divorce me because we can't get visa cause of financial requirements we tryed another eu country they refused me after 8 months we paid so much on rent.
Thank you to uk border for breaking family's apart that is the freedom you pretend in your country's. 😡👎👎👎👎👎
Oh no!! John, I am really sorry to hear of this terrible news. Is there nothing your wife can do to meet the requirements? Maybe work two jobs?? I also worried that I wouldn't be able to meet the financial requirements at the time that I applied for my husband's visa and we always said that we would apply 3 times and f it didn't work, I would leave the UK and move to Bangladesh to live with him. I took on lots of overtime at work and thankfully our visa was successful.
Living in the UK or in the EU should not break you guys up, love always finds a way. I hope you get things sorted with your wife.
@@RuksanaAhmed thank you for your feelings of course should not break our marriage, and I don't mind living in my country with my wife but she refused and so is her parents . Yes we can try but still hard is was very frustrated for us to spend over 11k for rent and then we got rejected. will see how things will goes. Good luck for you and your spouse I Hope you have wonderful life together.
@@jagvill1000 i am sorry.... But you need to wake up.. it wasn't a given that you would get the visa z however your wife wanting to divorce you indicates she does not love and give a shit about you and that she is in the relationship for her own selfish interested.. if i was your friend, you'd know what ny advice would be..
Hi this is a reply to a previous answer. How many months of call logs or chat history is required if it is indeed a requirement
Ruman Ahmed Hiya, I know they have limited the amount you can supply, it was pretty unlimited before but I would suggest you show a variety over the time you have known each other to show regularly contact over that period
