This is the Secretary of State's appeal against the decision of Judge Grimshaw made following a hearing at Bradford on 23 rd June 2014.
The claimant is a citizen of Zimbabwe, born on 1 st April 1966. She applied to come to the UK as a spouse but was refused, on 19 th November 2013, on the grounds that the Entry Clearance Officer was not satisfied that the relationship between the couple was genuine and subsisting and that the Sponsor could meet the financial requirements of Appendix FM.
The judge was satisfied that the couple were in a genuine relationship which had continued since their marriage and that they had a commitment to a shared future.
With respect to the financial requirements of the Rules, she saw a letter from the Sponsor's employer and his P60 for the tax year ending April 2014 which showed his gross annual earnings from his employment with Cranswick Gourmet Bacon Company of �20,124.43.
The Secretary of State sought permission to appeal on the grounds that the judge had had no regard to the rules of specified evidence. There was still no clear evidence regarding the Sponsor's employment earnings for the qualifying period.
