Essential requirements for UK Spouse visa extension
Relationship history
One more critical factor is the relationship history of the applicants. The applicants should prove they have been living together at least for 2 years at the same address and share financial responsibilities. Our specialists will consult you on the evidences you should collect according to your individual circumstances.
Income confirmation
The most important condition to achieve a UK Spouse Visa extension is to prove your family (you and your spouse together) has sufficient income. You must meet the financial requirement which is £18,600-29,000 where the applicant has no children, £22,400-32,800 with one child, £24,800-35,200 with two children, £27,200-37,600 with three children and so on. The financial requirement does not apply to a child who is a British Citizen, is an EU national, is settled in the UK or qualifies under Part 8 or Appendix Armed Forces of the Immigration Rules. If your family does not meet the financial requirements, and your income is less than the amount needed, there is still the possibility of showing savings in a bank account that meets the financial requirement. This amount of savings required depends on income, and the funds must remain in the bank account for 6 months. We can count the specific amount for you and consult you on the matter. If you and your UK sponsor do not have a regular income in the form of a salary, you can meet the requirements by showing an amount upward of £62,500 has been kept in a bank account for six months or more.
Accommodation requirements
Another essential condition for obtaining a UK Spouse Visa extension is the accommodation situation of your family. You must occupy the accommodation exclusively. If you rent accommodation in a shared house/apartment, then you should have a personal bathroom. If you live at the accommodation with relatives, the accommodation must have enough bedrooms for everyone living at the accommodation and all the relatives should give permission for the applicant to live at the accommodation with the sponsor. We will consult you on your accommodation conditions and check if you meet all the necessary requirements.
English language
You may need to prove your knowledge of the English language when you apply. You can show this with an academic qualification taught in English, or by passing an approved English language test at A2 level. You do not need to prove this if you are applying as a national of a country where the English language is one of the official languages.
