Should new relationship evidence be added to a lodged partner visa application? – Yes.
As partner visa processing times have significantly increased in the last year, the question can arise as to how to keep a lodged partner visa application ‘fresh’ and current.
The answer to that question is to continue to add evidence of your genuine and ongoing relationship to the partner visa application after it is lodged.
Evidence could include, new joint bank account statments, household bills, evidence of travel together, photographs, etc.
Best practice is to upload new evidence to your partner visa application regularly during the visa processing period – to maximise the chances of success for the application.
