Hi,
does anyone know if the immigration officer will be doing a credit check on me for my spouse sponsorship perm residency application in London? It wasn't mentioned at all but they do say they do 'background checks' and wasnt' sure if this included a credit check?
It might be the only thing to trip me up because I don't think my credit is perfect!

Police checks only show criminal convictions not CCJ's
So no i don't believe they will credit check you. For one you are not applying for credit.

Thanks for your replys, I didn't think they would check credit but wasn't totally sure. I don't have any CCJ's and my police check was clear so thats all good.
