Hi Ksand24,
I really needed this help, I'm very grateful.
2) Your wife applies online, attends biometrics and gets all her application and supporting documents together, sets up an international waybill, mails everything to you using FedEx or similar ($100-200), then you add your documents and forward them to Sheffield with Royal Mail. Then your wife will be charged for the waybill when they return everything to her in the US).
This sounds very economical.
Would it be okay for me to create an online account from the UK, and set up the international waybill from my side addressed to my spouse (applicant) in the US? I've never used this kind of service before.
- If you have been with your current employer, earning at least £18,600, for 6 months or more and have 6 months' of payslips and bank statements showing this (each payslip must have a pre-tax amount of at least £1,550), then you apply under Category A. You have to provide those 6 months of payslips and bank statements, as well as a specific letter from your employer, your job contract and P60.
I have been with my current employer(s)(I have 2 jobs), for the past 6 months. I will have earned above the threshold which would be £9,300 over the 6 month period, which are reflective on my wage slips and bank statements.
I will be providing letters from my employers outlining details of my permanent contract.
Would the P60 still be relevant for 2013/14, as my 6 month period will have started from April, this financial year?
If I could take advantage a just a little bit more..., in regards to my wage slips.
My employer(s), both, electronically send me wage slips, although, they are very standard to look at, should I get them attested by the employers themselves?
The letters that they are providing will also mention all this in great detail and confirm the wage slips' they gave, dates, gross, net, etc.
Thanks. Patiently awaiting your replies...

What I would do for a holiday... I guess the reason I hired an attorney (solicitor:)), was that I wasn't confident enough initially. There is 1 thing though.
My spouse has been visiting me as a "visitor" for the past 2 years. 5 months in the UK, then back to the US. In March this year we got married in the UK, she had to leave the UK, due to her 6 month visiting visa. Upon her return she was, "refused of leave to enter".
She was given "removal directions", and the reason they gave was, she had spent majority of her time, in the past two years in the UK (with me), and "were not satisfied that her entry was that of a visitor". It was the most daunting experience EVER!
Needless to say, we will attach a letter to the application and perhaps on the additional info part, on the online application, stating why (genuinely thought it was okay to come as a visitor and have never overstayed, etc)
And finally, I've drafted up a letter from our side and will be forwarding to the attorney asking him what his thoughts are.
So...., what are your thoughts???
Thanks
