This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Make Spousal Visas Easier to Obtain so Spouses are not kept APART!
More details
UK immigration policy discriminating against married couples rights under human rights act article 8 the right to marry and raise a family!
The government made the costs of the visa and income requirement ridiculous I believe this needs to be more on the discretion of immigration officers to say yes a true couple and you can afford the fee of £826 no criminal record so we grant you the visa no income requirement etc.
I agree they should not have to immediately go on public funds if allowed to work immediately and if they claim benefit in 1st yr they get deported!
