Hello could someone please give me some feedback on my sponsor letter thus far? We think we hit all the points good but I would love to hear your feedback on any changes/additions/removals. THANK YOU!
Dear Entry Clearance Officer,
I am writing to confirm that APPLICANT, as shown on their passport, has been my boyfriend for the past two years and is now my legal husband since our wedding on DATE in USA LOCATION.
I am a British citizen and have been living in the United Kingdom continuously since my birth. I am currently employed as JOB TITLE at JOB COMPANY with an annual salary of £SALARY AMOUNT per year and have held this permanent position since 16 July 2018.
I first met APPLICANT through a dating app called Tinder in July 2016. He was working at JOB LOCATION for 2 years as a part of the Armed Forces on official military orders. I lived in X CITY and he lived in Y CITY. We matched on the app and connected immediately on many of the same interests such as music and love for travel. We met up for our first date after a week of talking through Tinder and WhatsApp on July 22nd to have dinner and talk at a Prezzo in Ely, halfway between both of our homes. After numerous dates and trips to countries like Italy and Spain, Andrew asked me to move in with him in Y CITY where I lived with him from November 2016 to November 2017. November 2017 was the month his orders ended and he was required to return to the United States. Whilst he was in Z CITY, United States, we talked everyday and I visited him every month and he visited me to keep regular contact and our relationship strong. We both knew we wanted to get married from the very beginning but we were waiting for his military contract to end. We decided we would set the date for DATE. He got selected last minute for a deployment to X COUNTRY for 6 months on DATE. We talked every day through numerous apps to include Messenger, WhatsApp, Skype, and Facetime. Once APPLICANT returned to the states in January 2019, we got married in USA LOCATION on DATE.
Our plan is to initially stay at my parents’ home at the following address, X STREET, VILLAGE, CITY, COUNTY, U.K., POSTCODE, where there is a very spacious room waiting for us. APPLICANT will be applying for numerous jobs in the area including a civilian position at ARMED FORCES LOCATION. He has a security clearance and a lot of experience in the field due to his military career. In the meantime, we will be looking to purchase a suitable home together in the area after he has settled in the country. Eventually, we would like to start our own business as well.
Over the course of our 2-year relationship, we have overcome the long physical distance between us and we are ready to build our life together in the U.K. We are hoping that once our application is successfully approved under Category A, the start date of APPLICANT’S spouse visa can be arranged for x March 2018 so that APPLICANT can catch a flight over to London where I will pick him up. We look forward to our future together and are excited for the possibility to call the U.K. our home.
Yours sincerely,
