Re: New salary threshold of £38,700

Appreciate there will be discussions and nothing is set in stone, but am I right in saying that the financial threshold does not apply for naturalisation applications? My wife already has ILR.

Re: Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

Salam Fiza really sorry to hear about your refusal. I've kept up with this saga and it seems UKVI are just refusing anyone with Cambridge test, contrary to their own policy. Maybe it's an idea to reapply with IELTS. What is your timeline also?? I applied on 27 July so it won't be too long I hope for ...

Re: Spousal Visa Application - Pakistan (Timeline Only)

Although I was able to verify the results on our general verification site, your wife's results do not appear in the UKVI database. A photo was taken of your wife on the test day, but the centre failed to select the option to make that photo available to the UKVI on the UKVI Verification website ...
