    Thank you do I need to open a joint account in the bank as proof . Or It is fine to present our both p60 / payslips/ bank statement.?

    It is fine to submit both. They are needed if you will combine both salary. But joint account in the bank (letters) is also highly recommended for proof of joint correspondence.

    Wow Congratulations!
    I am now on the same situation. Applying for my first FLR(M).

    I just have some minimal (and quite silly) questions. T_T
    So, I applied for my Fiance/Marriage Visa in the Philippines last December 2017 and I need all the documents to be sorted without staples on them and separated with barcodes. Do I need to do them again on this FLR(M) I application? TY

    Hello :)

    I applied and paid online, as well as the IHS (not the premium - £1033.00 + IHS £500.00 ). But I still need to post the supporting documents and do the biometrics in any participating Post Office. I'm just quite OCD haha and worried if I'm doing it right. I was given a "next step" list but nothing about how I should compile my documents. In the Philippines, we are required to have a Barcode separator and unstapled docs in A4. I am thinking that Barcode Separator is only required when doing the application outside the UK?? or maybe not? A little bit confused on that part. :( (and I wanna staple my docs too haha)

    Anyone who applied in the UK this 2017/2018? Do I need those Barcode Separators?

    Hello @Robee theres no need for barcode separator for the FLRM supporting documents. I only used post it to mark/separate the paper by category ex. financial capability, proof of marriage etc.

    You’ll be okay, best of luck! :)

    No need for birth cert. You only need your passport and orig IELTS cert.
