Help! Unmarried couple UK Visa
Hi everybody! My partner and I are getting ready to apply for an unmarried partner visa, so we’re trying to gather as much evidence as possible. I’ve been reading a lot on Reddit about this topic, but I wanted to get some recommendations and opinions from you as well.
This is our current situation so far:
My partner is from the UK, and his income alone fully covers the £29,000 financial requirement.
We have been in a relationship for one year, so we’re planning to apply next year. In the meantime, we’re meeting each other as often as possible, and I’m planning to stay at his place for 1–2 months. Does anyone have any advice on how we could prove this? Maybe a letter from his landlord?
We have flight bookings/reservations and lots and lots of pictures together, including pictures with each other’s family and friends.
We regularly transfer money to each other for dinners, little gifts, etc. I’ve also heard that it might be a good idea to set up a Revolut Pocket so we can start saving money for the whole application process. Would this be useful as evidence of our relationship, or would it not really count as having a shared account?
We’re planning to write a timeline of our relationship highlighting the important moments, as well as a future plan for our life together, including sharing an apartment, having a joint bank account, getting married, and eventually living together in the UK.
What do you think of all of this? Are we on the right track? Are there any other things you would recommend we do to strengthen our application?
Any advice or recommendations would be more than appreciated! ☺️
