UK ILR for Wife - Fanance Requirements?
Posted: Tue Jun 18, 2013 7:39 pm
Sorry if the answer to this has been posted. I have searched and could not find it.
My wife is currently living in the UK and is on a spouse visa (FLR-M). She has been here in the UK now for a total of four years. Her last visa was a two year extension as she didn't fulfill the language requirements to apply for ILR SET(M). She has now passed an ESOL course with citizenship and has the letter & cert from college. If we apply for ILR before October then there is no need to pass "Life in the UK" as she sits under the old rules because she was already here before 9th July 2012.
I recently (last week) quit my job to start my own business as a contractor. I had been employed with this company for 13 years. I have about 30K in the bank as a buffer for my business. Does anybody know what the guidelines are around finances with regard to being self employed?
Thanks
Paul
