Ancestry Visa to ILR - can we include dependent salary to prove our financial circumstances

Post by oz1234 » Wed Apr 03, 2019 11:30 am

Hello,

My husband and I are both Australian. He has a UK Ancestry Visa (expiring May 2019) and I have a spouse visa linked to his Ancestry Visa. We have been living and working in the UK for the whole visa time and are currently filling out the online ILR application form (my husband is the applicant and I am the dependent).

We are confused about the wording of the following question:

"Does a relative or friend of you or your spouse or partner (if applicable) regularly give you money?"

My husband and I are both working in the UK and we share all financial responsibilities jointly and are paid into a joint bank account. Should we list my salary here or is my financial contribution to our relationship irrelevant for the purposes of this application, as they are looking to assess whether my husband can support me as a dependent on his salary alone? There isn't any other area in the application form where we would have an opportunity to outline my financial contribution.

Many thanks in advance!
