Good morning. Thanks to everyone answering questions. And hope I don't need evidence of proficiency in English because I never saw it anywhere when I was applying. Please for my biometric capturing at TLS, do I need to come with the originals of all the documents that I uploaded? I'm applying for a spouse visa. The photos I uploaded, do I still need to go there with them. Thank you |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 12:31pm On May 09, 2022 |
vikaosi: You only need your passport, photocopy of the database side of your passport and the tick documents letter to go with to TLS. Since you have uploaded all your supporting documents they wouldn’t need that from you at TLS. Just make sure having the English IETLS or whatever it’s called isn’t on the list of your requirements. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by vikaosi: 1:04pm On May 09, 2022 |
Ray7878: Thank you very much. I didn't see any test of English while applying. I guess it is not a requirement for a spouse visa. Thank you. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 1:11pm On May 09, 2022 |
vikaosi: Not sure how that happened but my spouse definitely was asked for it. Our first appt was turned down due to this. But she doesn’t have a university degree though. Because if you have then it would not be a requirement. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by vikaosi: 1:33pm On May 09, 2022 |
Ray7878: IELTS was not mentioned anywhere in my application process. And it is not in the checklist. Could it be that there are different types of spousal visas? |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 9:09pm On May 09, 2022 |
vikaosi: Yes it could be different, ours is settlement/spouse visa. We ended up paying £3700 in dollars. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Osoderi(m): 9:18pm On May 09, 2022 |
vikaosi: Hmmm! test of English is very compulsory otherwise your application will be refused. i will advice you to quickly register for IELTS test, it is very simple. make sure u do the one for B1, it takes u to applying for indefinite and citizen. If you do A1 it last only for 2.5 years, u will still pay and renew another one here in the uk if you are applying for further leave to remain. All the best Test of English requirement is one of the primary requirement for spouse visa, they need to be sure you have knowledge of English. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by vikaosi: 10:29pm On May 09, 2022 |
Ray7878: I paid about £260 pounds. Mine is not settlement. My wife is a healthcare worker. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 2:05pm On May 10, 2022 |
vikaosi: Yep that makes sense then. Good luck, your should be quick then, we have been waiting since 28th of January. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by vikaosi: 3:28pm On May 10, 2022 |

vikaosi: Dear Vikaosi, Finally I see someone that speaks same "language" with me..lolz I've read some posts and I've been confused.. Cost was just $317, as the only fee, unlike the over $3,000 I've been seeing here for Spouse Visa. Really seem there are different versions of Spouse or Partner Visa. And I also remembered that when my wife and I were applying for it, we changed application 3 times. The first two links were strange and has so many questions and requirements, including the English results or degree and many other things someone has listed earlier here. But she was like, it can't be those, and later got the link we finally used from a colleague. And decision was concluded within 3weeks. (Applied on March 29th, went for biometrics on April 5 at Abuja VAC, and got mail that Visa was ready for collection on April 27) Collected my Visa just this afternoon, and by God's grace, it's approved. So, it actually seems there are different versions of Spouse/partner Visa, for different reasons or benefits I believe I also pray that those still awaiting decision would receive theirs soonest...with favourable decision. Cheers all EDITED: And no, we didn't upload any single picture nor chats nor any form of receipts or bills 2 Likes |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by vikaosi: 10:05pm On May 10, 2022 |
mcTrinity: I thought as much. With Maintenance ticked on the COS of your spouse, some of the requirements are waived. From your papers you pasted, we applied for the same type of visa. I paid $322. Please what documents were requested from you at the biometric centre Congratulations. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by mcTrinity(m): 10:38pm On May 10, 2022 |
vikaosi: You're right... Go with your passport,of course. Then very importantly too, the TLScontact appointment email... Then the printout Checklist. If you paid for added value service, you'll need to print out that TLScontact receipt. Then, a copy of your passport data page (I did mine coloured). I believe you uploaded the required documents when you were applying. Otherwise, you'll need to physically go with them and have them uploaded there ... Thanks |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by vikaosi: 1:59am On May 11, 2022 |
mcTrinity: Thank you. Please could you list the required documents again, let me be sure that nothing is missing. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by mcTrinity(m): 8:30am On May 11, 2022 |
vikaosi: *Your passport ID *Your Police clearance result (character report) *your Tb test results *Your partner's Visa *Your partner's CoS *CoS maintenance letter from Your partner's employer *Your partner's BRP *Marriage certificate |

Hi guys, Who has recently gotten their TB test done, could you please share the exert amount you paid in Naira? Some said 57,800 another said 64,200. I am so unsure due to the unstable USD rate in Nigeria. Kindly share exert amount if you have recently paid for this test. Thank you. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by orlabot(m): 8:03am On May 12, 2022 |
Good morning everyone. Pls, for the spouse visa, do I need to upload any picture of myself with my partner? Please, apart from the above stated documents, what other documents do I need to upload before my biometrics. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 8:03am On May 12, 2022 |
kunletiwo: I would say pay the lower amount. They would accept your payments slip and you would still do your test. My wife paid 4k more than what she was meant to pay. She paid 58k in Oct 2021 when she did hers. And when she got there the next day they told her it was 54k. She couldn’t get the 4k back lol. 1 Like |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by kunletiwo(m): 9:07am On May 12, 2022 |

mcTrinity:Pls, apart from this document listed above, is there any need for me to upload prove of relationship like wedding pictures, chats e.t.c |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by erandpay07: 11:02am On May 12, 2022 |
Ray7878: I don't really understand this issues of Ukraine excuse on this matter. At least they should have stop all the Visa process and face Ukraine problem by just collecting application and hanging people's mind on a life wire. Given people BP everyday. Hmmmmm May God help us. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by youniq: 11:09am On May 12, 2022 |
@Ray7878 Have you heard anything from home office, I just saw on the website that the decision waiting time has been changed from 12 weeks to 24 weeks. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 12:27pm On May 12, 2022 |
youniq: Yep they sent this to my wife on Tuesday ![]()

Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by youniq: 12:32pm On May 12, 2022 |
Ray7878: This wait is going to be long and exhausting. Regarding the other visa you were referring to, I think theirs is dependent visa while ours is spouse settlement visa, It isn’t the same. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 12:43pm On May 12, 2022 |
youniq: Thanks for clarifying that, because my wife had a mate that paid under £400 on the same day that she went to do her biometrics. And that Lady got her visa within 3 weeks and she is now with her husband in the UK. They were comparing notes and were confused with the spouse visa different prices. I did explain to her that their might be “Dependent visa” rather than settlement. I would keep on updating you to let you know how far we have got to. Our biometrics was done on the 28th of January at Ikeja, so we looking at the end of July for this to come out. She had to re-rent her place today as we speak for another 6 months. So it’s just patience really. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 12:46pm On May 12, 2022 |
erandpay07: I swear my BP has gone through the roof over the last 5 weeks, but we have both come to accept that it’s just patience that’s needed, and to get all the things that needs doing now before she arrives, she is trying to learn hair making, get her drivers licence, do the UK theory test driving lessons online etc. So that it’s easier for her to start her new life once she is here. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by youniq: 3:13pm On May 12, 2022 |
Ray7878: Please keep me updated, the anxiety I feel from waiting is too much, I keep refreshing my email every minute, I read somewhere that all applications made this year has been packed aside for the home office to fully concentrate on the Ukraine crisis, that’s why no spouse settlement applicant from January till date has come back to drop a feedback. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 5:38pm On May 12, 2022 |
No youniq: We have been doing the same thing, refreshing the tracker, emails etc my wife is beside herself. I really feel for her. I would definitely update people on here. The Ukraine excuse is quite poor, they are still issuing work, tourist, visiting visas. But they expect people who pay over the odds to be split away from their love ones. I have already made my complaints to the home office, they usually get back within 20 working days in regards to the complaint. 1 Like |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by youniq: 9:04pm On May 12, 2022 |
Ray7878: I’m not very sure but I think other non-settlement visas are being processed in the country where the applicant resides, that’s why Ukraine crisis doesn’t affect them. |
Re: UK Spouse Visa/Appeal Process-part2 by Ray7878: 9:59pm On May 12, 2022 |
youniq: Thanks didn’t really know that. That would make sense to be honest. |
