Hi, new to this site, so not sure how it works, but help would be appreciated:
Basically my husband (from pakistan) is looking to make an application for a spouse visa.
I live in the UK and have been in receipt of carers allowance looking after my aunties son who is disabled for about 5 months. have also managed to get a part time job earning £97.50 a week. This is my first job, and therefore I dont pay any vat on it. I dont have a contract of employment because my employers are a small company and say that no-one does. they will provide me with a letter confirming that I am in permanent employment. I have been employed by my company for a period of over 3 months.
I believe my total income for a week is £157.25. I do not get any benefits etc.
I am eager to make an application to have my husband over so was wandering whether i can collate my documents and issue it just after 4 months of being employed?
I live at home with my parents who are happy for my husband to live rent free. I dont really pay for anything at home.
Can you please advise if i can make my application now, at month 4 or do i need to wait for 6 months. I note the rules say something along the lines of "at least 6 months wage slips or such shorter period as the current employement has been held"
If i do give 4 months wage slips, will i need to give 6 month bank statements or will 4 months suffice?
Also, on the maintenance form, it asks what the sponsors current job is....is getting carers allowance classed as a job, or will this only be my part time job?
I would really really appreciate your response as I am very eager to submit my application.
Thanks in advance and in anticipation of a response : )
