Hi everyone,
My partner from the UK has applied for partnership work visa, we have finally heard back from immigration after a month.
"We have concerns that your application fails to meet mandatory immigration instructions mentioned below:
WF2(a): partners of NZ citizens or residence class visa holders may be granted a work visa provided that they are living together in a genuine and stable relationship.
The evidence which you have provided with your application does not satisfy immigration instructions mentioned above as we are not yet confident that you and your partner living together in a genuine and stable relationship."
My partner already has a job offer and is meant to be starting the 1st August so we are a bit stressed!
In our application we provided:
Cover letter
Timeline of relationship
Photographs
Flight tickets (holiday and travelling to see each other)
Hotel receipts
Birthday cards/Anniversary cards
Proof of address in uk and nz. (Though we don't have joint letters..)
Screen shots of Facebook conversations over the three years we've been together.
Unfortunately because of our circumstances, we have never had a joint tenancy agreement or anything along those lines.
What would you recommend submitting as further evidence ?
