(iii) The couple have children together (biological, adopted or step-children) and shared responsibility for them.

(v) The partner and/or applicant have visited the other’s home country and family and are able to provide evidence of this. (The fact that an applicant has never visited the UK must not be regarded as a negative factor, but it is a requirement of the Immigration Rules that the couple have met in person).
(vi) The couple, or their families acting on their behalf, have made definite plans concerning the practicalities of the couple living together in the UK. In the case of an arranged marriage, the couple both consent to the marriage and agree with the plans made by their families.
(i) - 结婚证
(ii) - 相同地址的信件
(iii) - 有孩子
(iv) - 开了JOINT ACCOUNT
(v) 和 (vi) 就不太重要了。 大部分的要求都已经达到了，UTILITY BILL没有两个名字应该不是问题。
