ILR for spouse - Bank Statement help

Post by barfi » Sat Jan 11, 2014 5:27 pm

How much do I need to show in savings for ILR and does it matter if the money is in my sole name rather than in a joint account?

My wife can to the UK in Dec 2011, so she is under the old rules. My salary is approx. £2000 per month so we are covered from the financial requirements but the main saving account is in my name rather than a joint name? We have a joint current account, but the bulk of the money is in a savings account in my sole name. Savings are just under £10k?

Also, can we show savings in current account as well or by savings does it need to be a savings account?

It doesn't matter which bank account the savings are in, or in whose name they are held.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
