Savings before moving?
« on: August 25, 2011, 09:42:48 PM »
Hi everyone,
I'm hopefully coming over on a spousal visa.  I know that we have to have enough to cover council tax etc. before getting granted the visa.  I was just wondering how much previous people on the spousal visa had saved before moving over.  After visa and plane ticket fee's I've only got about $1500.  Any help is greatly appreciated!
Married March 29th.

I think some people have had nothing! Or at least very little.

There's a recent thread about this lurking somewhere!

How much did you cross the pond with?
