3月24号面签,croydon,10AM过完安检,最后4:30PM拿到通知走人,中间耗时你看自己算算吧。。。
不知道是不是周六的原因,里面的cafe台没人营业,中午只能跑旁边的shopping centre(5分钟步程)吃,2PM回去后被告知3PM就锁门(不知道是不是因为周六),建议不要再出去了。
实际处理我们的case的时间只有40分钟左右,之前我们的case文件一直都在排队,等待被处理。
材料很简单明确,这里不重新列举,引用其他我参考的帖子(谢谢各位楼主的贡献)

申请表里面,所有基本的材料都告诉你,要你准备。
比较费心费神费时的材料是带配偶的case要准备同居证明(evidence of cohabitation)
很多帖子说的比较笼统,我交材料的时候还担心有些材料签证官认不认,所以我这里列举一下我交cohabitation的材料
联名(joint name)
- Bank Joint account (standard saver),2年
- Bank Joint account (easy saver),2年
- Council tax (3年)
- mortgage offer letter (英国银行贷款同意信)
- mortgage statement(英国贷款)
- land registry(英国房产)
- 英国结婚证
- 两个孩子在英国出生的出生证明
单独名字下的我们交了这些材料:
- MOT 通知信
- 水费单
- NHS 检验报告
- AA 保险信
- 律师信
- 忘了什么店的会员信
说一下关于离境时间,我5年全部离境时间加起来都不够180天,我老婆的,需要离境时间是从2018年1月开始算的(申请表里有说明某个日子),因为这个日子开始才实施配偶离境监控,现阶段各位配偶们都暂时不要担心超额。我抄同事的一个表,说明了一下离境情况,请看附件
敲白板,划重点了,这些材料时间跨度要有2年,一年能有两三张信证明你们俩都在同一个地址就行,当然如果联名的信越多越好
按理来说,我提供了bank statement和council tax联名2-3年应该够证明,不过我们不放心,多准备了零零碎碎过去两年随机一个时间段的材料,单独名字联名都可以
LLoyds bank的注意了,银行最近出台(06/2017左右)不能在客户自己打印出来的statement上盖章,只能branch打印statement,然而,每个员工每天只能给每个客户打印90天的statement,有点绕口了,糊涂了吧,就是,我跟我老婆去打印joint account的statement的话,找某branch的一个小妹打印,能打印6个月的(给我打3个月,给我老婆打3个月),因为是joint account,给我打头3个月,给我老婆打之后3个月,就是6个月的statement, 然后可以换个小哥再打一次(这当然是灰色地带了)。我遇到的人比较好,他去后台给我换了一种格式打,字体比正常statement的字体要小,格式也不大一样,所以2年的bankstatement,两页就可以了,如果正常statement格式可能要10页。
对于签证来说,银行信只要有名字和地址,交易明细时间跨度够2年,有银行盖章就行,那就是official的,别一根筋的一定要formal的statement。
我周一开始准备的材料,周五准备好,周六面签,4天时间吧,边上班边看帖子,边研究申请表,边打印复印
