Hi Guys,

I bought Gold worth £5,200 back in July 11, got the receipt with me and gifted it to my wife, can I use this as savings? as i am going to be applying flr(m) in 2 months time.

i am applying on the basis of my wife who is a british citizen

Please advice

No you cant use the gold as savings unless you sell the gold and the cash you receive from it, is then transferred to a saving account. Its very unlikely a woman would sell her gold in the first place anyway. :wink:

You seem to be hijacking several existing threads than starting your own. Why?

i thought it would be considered bad if i start new threads rather then asking in a thread where people are having the same discussion.
I am really sorry if i broke any law for this site. any way i can apologize and open new threads with my questions for your kind advices!

a) an academic qualification deemed equivalent to a Bachelor’s Degree in the UK obtained from an educational establishment in one of the specified countries (see Section 21c of FLR(M) guidance notes for further information)
b) an academic qualification deemed equivalent to a Bachelor’s Degree in the UK and which the National Academic Recognition Information Centre for the UK (UK NARIC) has has confirmed as being taught or researched in English.
c) an academic qualification deemed equivalent to a Bachelor’s Degree in the UK for which you can provide evidence to show that the qualification was taught or researched in English.
Note 2
If you have answered “yesâ€

wahab86, I have split your posts into a new topic - this one. Please use this topic for all queries related to your FLR(M) application.

thanks sushdmehta
and sorry for creating problems

the other question is regarding maintenance

Maintenance funds:
My company lawyer said that your case is not straight forward due to the reason that yourwife (brit citizen) is not working and is a full time student and she cannot provide anything to support you
where as I thought that income from both of us will be considered... would that be a problem if she isnt working? i am an accountant and earning good money and we are not receiving any public funds and i am capable of suporting both of us , paying council tax bills and rent from my main bank account ( receiving salary into this one ) and still saving money every month


thanks in advance

Just a question which is killing me for past few days
i am due to apply in jan 12


my wife is british citizen and is a student and i am on work permit working as an accountant. will my income be assessed and will be okay? as I am sure they look at income from both sponsor and applicant? I hope to hear something back soon since this forum has always been helpful for others who need help

also if possible can anyone provide me sample of cover letter please and is anyone in the same situation as i am ( sponsor british citizen, student and not working and applicant working )

Kind regards
Wahab

The income of the applicant and the sponsor are considered jointly.
