Must a husband and wife make separate online applications for a UK Standard Visitor visa, and so attend separate appointments for biometrics?

You need to apply separately at GOV.UK or VISFORUK.ORG and after you’re done you register and make an appointment on the visa center’s website depending on which country you’re from. At that point use both GWF numbers to register for a group appointment, they will have that option on the center’s website.

Hope that helps.

Each person (including children) needs to file a separate application. Based upon your text, the recommended strategy is…

  1. Your wife applies first and records her GWF number. She schedules
    her biometrics enrolment on a day that appears totally open.
  2. You apply second and put your wife’s GWF number in the remarks
    section of the application and explain that you are travelling
    together.

If you cannot schedule biometrics at the same time, make two different appointments but show up together and ask if they can accommodate you. No guarantees, but sometimes it works.

Note: only the primary needs to submit financial evidence. This is pointed out in the Supporting Documents Guide.

if you are applying as a family/group you do not need to provide
multiple copies of the same documents
