Question 1

What is VisaEvo?

Accepted Answer

VisaEvo is self-service software that helps you organise and prepare your UK spouse visa application. It includes tools for document organisation, checklist generation, and information search — all based on publicly available gov.uk information.

Question 2

Is VisaEvo a law firm or immigration adviser?

Accepted Answer

No. We are not a law firm, immigration advisers, or regulated by OISC. We do not provide immigration advice. VisaEvo is software — like TurboTax for tax returns. You prepare your own application; we provide the tools to help you organise it.

Question 3

What's the difference between VisaEvo and using a solicitor?

Accepted Answer

A solicitor provides regulated immigration advice and can tell you what to do. VisaEvo is software that helps you organise your documents and presents official gov.uk information. You make all decisions about your application yourself. For complex cases, you may wish to consult a regulated adviser.

Question 4

Where can I find official information about UK spouse visas?

Accepted Answer

All official information is available at gov.uk/uk-family-visa. Our software helps you navigate this information but always links back to the official source. The gov.uk website is the authoritative source for all requirements.

Question 5

What is the financial requirement?

Accepted Answer

According to gov.uk, the Minimum Income Requirement (MIR) is currently £29,000 per year. Our calculator helps you enter your figures and compare them to the published requirements. For the official rules, see gov.uk/uk-family-visa/proof-income.

Question 6

Can savings be used?

Accepted Answer

According to gov.uk guidance, savings can be used to meet part or all of the financial requirement. Our calculator lets you enter your figures to see how they compare to the published thresholds. The official rules are at gov.uk/uk-family-visa/proof-income.

Question 7

What does the checklist generator do?

Accepted Answer

Based on information you enter about your situation, the software generates a list of documents typically required according to gov.uk guidance. You can use this to track what you've gathered. The checklist is for organisation purposes — you decide what to include in your application.

Question 8

What does the financial calculator do?

Accepted Answer

The calculator lets you enter your income and savings figures. It then shows how these compare to the published financial requirements on gov.uk. It's a calculation tool, not advice — you interpret the results and decide how to proceed.

Question 9

What does the document organiser do?

Accepted Answer

You can upload and organise your documents in one place. The software can check file formats and sizes, help you create PDF bundles, and keep everything organised. It's a productivity tool for managing your files.

Question 10

What information sources does VisaEvo use?

Accepted Answer

All information in VisaEvo is sourced from publicly available gov.uk guidance. We provide plain English summaries alongside links to the official source. We do not interpret the rules or tell you what applies to your situation.

Question 11

Is there a free version?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The free tier lets you explore the requirements overview, use the basic calculator, view sample checklists, and search gov.uk information. No credit card required.

Question 12

What's included in paid plans?

Accepted Answer

Paid plans unlock the full calculator, custom checklist generator, document upload and organisation tools, PDF bundling, and (on Complete) cloud backup and premium tools. Complete also includes access to our future ILR and British citizenship preparation toolkit when we release it. See the pricing page for full details.

Question 13

Is this a subscription?

Accepted Answer

No. It's a one-time payment for lifetime access to the software. You pay once and can use the tools for as long as you need them.

Question 14

Does VisaEvo work offline?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your checklist, notes, and progress are stored locally on your device using IndexedDB. You can continue working even without an internet connection. When you go offline, a small banner will let you know — and all your changes will be waiting for you when you're back online.

Question 15

Where is my data stored?

Accepted Answer

All data is stored locally in your browser's IndexedDB storage. Nothing is sent to external servers unless you explicitly enable cloud backup. This means your data stays on your device and is available even without an internet connection.

Question 16

What happens if I use private/incognito browsing?

Accepted Answer

In private browsing mode, some browsers restrict or disable IndexedDB. The software will still work during your session, but your data may not persist after closing the tab. For the best experience, use a regular browsing window.

Question 17

What if my browser storage is full?

Accepted Answer

If your device's storage is full, you'll see a warning in the checklist. The software will continue to work in memory for your current session. You can free space by removing uploaded files or clearing unused browser data.

Question 18

Should I use VisaEvo instead of getting professional advice?

Accepted Answer

VisaEvo is software, not a replacement for professional advice. If you have a complex situation, previous refusals, or are unsure about anything, you may wish to consult a regulated immigration adviser. Find one at gov.uk/find-an-immigration-adviser.

Question 19

What if I need immigration advice?

Accepted Answer

Immigration advice in the UK must be provided by someone regulated by OISC or a solicitor. We are neither. For advice, please consult a regulated adviser. You can find one at gov.uk/find-an-immigration-adviser.

Question 20

Who is responsible for my application?

Accepted Answer

You are. VisaEvo provides software tools to help you organise your application, but you make all decisions and are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of your application.
