Default Spouse visa and shipping advice

Hi there, we have applied for my husbands spouse visa yesterday. He has his biometrics appointment on the 28th January and what I wanted to know is:
- should we send of the supporting documents before the biometrics appointment, or wait until after he has had his fingerprints done?
-Once approved is there still a 90 day period when my husband would have to enter the UK by in order to collect his visa or is it back to 30 days?
- Can anyone recommend a good company who offers shared shipping containers from the US to the UK?
Thanks in advance

Hello! A good place to get started is to check out the FIDI website (https://www.fidi.org/) for a list of certified International Removal companies.

You can choose to book a shipping company based in the US or the UK, there are benefits of both approaches which are explained a bit more here: Should you book a removal comapny at origin or destination?

Hope that helps!

Notice you are applying from the US? You still have to send supporting documents to somewhere? (Most places are now uploading supporting documents)

As I understand it they are still giving 90 days to move.
