Can CCJs be a reason for refusal of spousal visa

Post by MikeManU » Sat Nov 10, 2018 5:34 pm

I hope someone could clarify if CCJs could cause my wife's visa who I am sponsoring?

I meet financial requirements with a salary of 22K from my main employment and 6K from part-time NHS employment, but I have 2 court orders (CCJs are not recorded on credit file) with a monthly payment of totaling £65 a month. Even though it is only a small amount, but could this be seen as negatively by ECO as someone with previous financial difficulties and make this a reason to refuse the visa?

Your credit history or ccj is irrelevant to an immigration application.

I do understand that credit history or CCJ may not directly impact application, but do the ECO not consider this as a sign of someone with financially unstable, and may not be able to support the applicant?

Okay, Thank you. But should I clarify what these expense on bank statements are for?

No!

HO only care about your employment and income. They don't care how you spend your money.
