initial proof of address

Post by matthewk » Wed Jun 05, 2019 3:08 pm

Hello everybody
I'm currently living at my mother's house, with my wife, she is on a fiance visa. I'm finding it very difficult to get proof of address to open a bank account ect. All the house hold bills are in my mothers name and I can't get bills in my wife's name as she has no bank account for credit checks or any proof address.
Due to the stress we encountered during the first visa, and some problems involving her family back home, we have left collecting paperwork for flr(m) a bit late as we just wanted to have some stress free time together. If anyone has some advice for me it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Matthew.

For switching into spouse visa from fiancee visa you won't need any proof of cohabitation which will be needed in extension stage.

hi thanks for your reply, are you saying that going from a fiance visa to flr(m) 6 proof of address documents are not required? so it would only be needed after when we want to extend after 2.5 years correct?
thanks
