Not a lot of change... if any............... https://www.gov.uk/government/uploa...-15_Fees_Table_excl_unit_costs_October_v1.pdf
Still, its better the £ in my pocket than theirs It is difficult to see how they put a cost on a visa application, maybe they just pluck a figure out of thin air.
I saw one of their documents where they clearly do make a "profit". They outlined the respective fees and the respective costs.The gap was huge. I actually believe and I recall Kuya indicated as much in a breakdown that he did, that the costs are lower than they actually state and that it takes all of 15 minutes to an hour to go through a settlement visa application. It is just a tick box exercise. "Applicants passport. Yep." "Sponsors passport. Yep." "Income threshold. Yep" "Yep Yep Yep, Tick tick tick etc" "That's another one done. Breaktime....." For someone that has done a few it can be done very quickly. They may well have their own checklists to go by and certainly have instruction on acceptance / rejection criteria.
However, as someone pointed out, the "profit" goes towards paying for any benefits that the applicant receives once they arrive in the UK and of course there are a few.
Which ever way you look at it, it is still a hell of a lot of money over the 5 year visa period to finally get the ILR.
Hopefully even the rate is increased their working days also decrease,, hahahhaa.. Hopefully that will be that easy, since their visa fees was increased hahhaha...
Hi guys, I just figure out while checking the VFS Philippines there is a service priority,, http://www.vfsglobal.co.uk/philippines/user_pay_services.html#1 http://www.vfsglobal.co.uk/philippines/pdf/PV_Application_Declaration.pdf http://www.vfsglobal.co.uk/philippines/pdf/Terms_and_Conditions_210113.pdf check that out, the Fiancee Visa Applicant can also avail that Service priority ??...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- nope--it doesnt say that. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately you cannot use the priority service for the Fiancee/Spouse application as Bigmac pointed out, once in the UK though you can get a priority FLR where a UKBA representitive even comes to your home to collect and check your application. One problem though; It costs £6000 for the service so I dont think many of us will be using that service unless we win this weekends lottery
Hhahahaha lols... im just hoping hahaha.. thanks for the ideas.... I need your ideas guys about this documents we are gathering, Is it right?? My Fiancee was the director of the company he is working and his sister is the Secreatary.. We are applying as Category A and he is following the employment requirment. - P60 (if issued) and pay slips for the 6-month period prior to the application, or as appropriate, for the 12-month period prior to the application. - Letter from the employer confirming the person’s employment and annual salary, the length of their employment (and the period over which they have been or were paid the level of salary relied upon in the application), and the type of employment (permanent, fixed-term contract or agency). - A signed contract of employment. He also provide as a dividend certificate and document for wages slips and Expenses Slip.. He also provide a documents that he has other account for expenses and for wages....
