Is your friend seeking exemption from the Minimum Income Threshold of the Financial Requirements ?
If so then the application for visa will be just the same as for the normal Partner/Spouse Visa.
The exception will come in Appendix 2 when the applicant would skip to Part 4 Maintenance for those exempt from the financial requirement
To be able to do this the applicant will need to submit documentary evidence of:-
- Eligibility of exemption due to Carers Allowance
- Documentary evidence of adequate maintenance and accommodation.
This would require proving a net income after deduction of total housing costs that is equal to or greater than the current Income Support rate
Currently this is £112.55 per week
If the net income of the b/f of your friend (after deduction of all housing costs) is £112.55 or more then they can move ahead with the application.
A good starting point is to review the needed application forms which can be found on the UKBA website.

Hi there as long as he shows the payment going into his bank account along with the decision letter regarding carers allowance then he will be exempt from the financial requirement.
The UKBA stipulates at least one payment showing this.
Hope that helps...

Thats what the government says a person needs to survive on £71 single or £112.55 for a couple.
Hard to grasp bidmarco I know but been in that same situation myself after a bad accident.
Luckly now I"m ok and back at work thank god...
