Hi,
I'm getting the documents for my spouse visa extension (FLRM) ready and just want to double check a few things around documents to submit. (For background, my partner's salary covers the financial requirements and we had our first child recently).
____________________________
- Applicant's Passport (all pages) and BRP copies
- Sponsor's Passport (all pages) copy
- Applicant/Sponsor's marriage certificate
- Applicant's proof of address (6 documents from different sources covering last 30 months)
covering 24months suffices
- Sponsor's proof of address (6 documents from different sources covering last 30 months)
see highlighted above, if the documents addressed to you both, 6 is good enough.
- Applicant's SELT A2 Test Certificate from Trinity College
- Sponsor's Payslips covering last 6 months -
these are online downloads; do they need to be signed/stamped by employer? Not required to be
- Sponsor's Bank Statements covering last 6 months showing salary paid in -
these are online pdf downloads; do they need stamping/signing by the bank and can all of the statements be combined in to a single pdf? Not required to be
- Sponsor's Employment letter confirming employment/salary etc and confirming payslips are genuine
what is required is letter from employer, not employment letter, it will appear that is what you have already
- Land Registry Title Deeds for the property we reside in (under Father in law's name) -
do these need to be Official Copies?
- Father in law's Passport copy (all pages) as the property we reside in is owned by him
- Father in law's bank statement as proof of address as the property we reside in is owned by him
- Housing Inspection Report
- Letter from Father in law stating he is happy for us to reside in the Property indefinitely
- IHS Payment Reference
- GWF Reference from original Spouse Visa application
- Child's birth certificate
- Child's (British) Passport copy (all pages)
- Cover Letter
- Applicant's signed Declaration printout
- Sponsor's signed Declaration printout

--- Is there anything I'm missing?
--- Besides the bank statements and payslips, do any other documents need to be less than 28 days old?
--- The documents that need to be less than 28 days old; it's 28 days from the date the application is submitted online right? Yes Not the date of the biometrics appointment?
--- Do any original documents need to be submitted or taken to the biometrics appointment? Passport for ID and will be returned to applicant there and then.
--- Do any documents need stamping/signing by the bank or a solicitor? (I did this for the original Spouse Visa application)
--- My Father in law owns the house we reside in (no mortgage). He and my partner are both named on the water bill. However, my partner pays all of the bills and no third party helps us financially. We will be submitting the water bill as proof of address but does my Father in law also need to sign a declaration printout? no

Does anyone have any idea of how long the wait generally is for a biometrics appointment at Manchester?
When you get to that point you will see availability
