Case Study: Successful Spouse Visa Application Using Cash Savings
Background:
Our client, a non-UK national from Dubai, sought to join his British spouse in the United Kingdom. Although his wife was a British citizen, she had lived in Dubai for the majority of her life and did not have employment in the UK. As a result, they intended to rely on cash savings to meet the financial requirement for the spouse visa.
Our client, a non-UK national from Dubai, sought to join his British spouse in the United Kingdom. Although his wife was a British citizen, she had lived in Dubai for the majority of her life and did not have employment in the UK. As a result, they intended to rely on cash savings to meet the financial requirement for the spouse visa.
Challenges:
- The client's spouse did not have a UK-based job, necessitating the use of cash savings to meet the financial eligibility criteria.
- Ensuring compliance with UK Home Office rules, which require cash savings of at least £62,500 to be held for a minimum of six consecutive months.
- Securing suitable tenancy in the UK to demonstrate adequate accommodation.
Our Approach:
- Assisted the couple in securing a tenancy agreement with a UK landlord, fulfilling the accommodation requirement.
- Ensured that their cash savings were appropriately documented and met the Home Office’s strict requirements for eligibility.
- Prepared a comprehensive spouse visa application, addressing all evidentiary requirements.
- Arranged the client’s biometric appointment at the VFS Global center in Dubai.
Outcome:
The application was successfully approved, allowing our client to relocate to the UK. He is now settled and enjoying his new life with his spouse.
