UK Spouse Visa Financial Requirement

Hello!

I would like to bring my wife to the UK on a spouse visa. But we have a bit of an odd situation. I have only just returned to the UK after working abroad for 3 years. I am a British citizen.

I have started working for a new UK company. The salary is £160,000.

The question is, do we have to wait for 6 months to apply for the visa? Or given the 29,000 requirement will be met after 3 months (pre-tax) can we apply after 3-months?

Thank You

How would HMRC ask to prove non-residence status?

I'm moving back to the UK after 7 years abroad. I will have some self-employment income during the tax year and would like to declare it and pay the tax on it in the UK.

I'm a bit concerned as to what information they will ask for to prove I was abroad for the past 7 years. As I was not self-employed when I left, and I also wasn't employed.

I have: Bank Statements (showing I made payments abroad), Visas, Passport Stamps, Flight Tickets, and Property (in my wife's name). Is this normally sufficient?
