    You're far far far too old to say "cool" Keith, it always makes me cringe when I here old biddies saying it :), strictly for school kids and ageing men wearing leather jackets and sporting a ponytail :)

    Just bear in mind that the online application is the easy bit and to make sure the rest of your application is prepared before you hit the submit button and pay the visa fee.

    mark---read and thoroughly understand the appendix--pages 14-18 explain what you need to submit. be extra careful with your financial requirements---can i ask which you are going to use ? this is often where applications fail---there is simply no room for error here. the financial requirements are mandatory.

    also--your accommodation details---make sure its all correct. ask questions----theres a wealth of experience here.

    yes

    check out the requirements you need to send to prove your earnings.

    you will need written consent from your landlord permitting your partner to also live there.----also 6 months tenancy to run from the date of your application---or a written offer to renew the tenancy .

    no--get a letter --as i mentioned---just to be on the safe side. never ever take anything for granted with your visa app. its your money at stake remember.

    6 months of wahe slips are required. The last wage slips being no more than 28 days old (i think) when you submit the application. The latest P60 is required. You need a letter off your boss too stating length of employment etc.
