Recently, our team was asked a question: “We have applied for partner visa. What alternative financial evidence can we provide if we do not meet the minimum income threshold?”

We wanna share the answer from our specialists:

03.12.2025 22:45:55 If you do not meet the minimum income threshold for a partner visa, you can provide alternative financial evidence to demonstrate that you will not become a burden on public funds. Such evidence may include savings or investments with sufficient funds in your joint or individual accounts, financial support from a third party (like a family member) with proof of their capacity and willingness to support you, proof of employment prospects or a job offer for either partner, evidence of shared financial responsibilities and expenditures (such as joint tenancy agreements, utility bills, or shared bank accounts), or ownership of property or other valuable assets. It’s important to provide official documentation for any claims and to show that your financial situation is stable and sustainable.

03.12.2025 22:45:58 From a legal perspective, assuming this refers to a UK partner visa under Appendix FM, if you do not meet the minimum income threshold (typically £18,600 per year), you may provide alternative financial evidence such as cash savings of at least £16,000 held for 6 months (which can count towards the threshold if over £62,500), permitted benefits like Disability Living Allowance or Carer's Allowance, pension income, maternity allowances, or other specified sources. The evidence must demonstrate adequate maintenance without recourse to public funds. It's essential to review the specific immigration rules and ensure all documents are valid and verifiable to support your application.

05.12.2025 11:04:30 If you do not meet the minimum income threshold for a UK Partner Visa, the Immigration Rules allow several alternative financial routes. You may rely on cash savings over £16,000, which can substitute for income if held for at least six months; combined income and savings may also be used to reach the required level. Other permitted evidence includes non-employment income (rent, dividends, investments), pension income, or income from self-employment, provided it is properly documented through tax returns, accounts, and bank statements. In exceptional cases, if the financial requirement cannot be met through the standard routes, you may request consideration under “exceptional circumstances” where refusal would breach Article 8 (family life). Our legal service can determine which financial category applies, calculate whether you meet the threshold through combined routes, and prepare compliant documentation for Home Office assessment.
