Utility bills for FLR

[aghayevi]

Hi there,

For FLR application what period of time should utility bills cover, 2 years or whole period of time 33 months?

Thank you

If this a FLR(M) application the requirement is to submit 6 pieces of evidence in joint names from at least 3 different sources spread as evenly as possible over the 2.5 year qualifying period. If there are none in joint names then 6 each in single names (12) should be submitted.

As a general guidance, a bill or correspondence etc showing joint address every 4-5 months throughout the 2.5 years.

Thank you very much for such a quick reply.

Have another question, how important is start date of evidence.

Say, my wife first entered UK on 31th of March but her bills will start from 1st of April.

Is that ok or they should start from same or next day of her intial arrival UK ?

No problem. The Case Worker simply needs to see that the couple have been living together for the 2.5 year qualifying period and it would be rare for proof of joint residence to be available from day one.
