Moving Back To England

[Cora5687 0]

Hey all, It's been awhile!
I know i've posted something similar but im still unsure on some things. 

BACKSTORY:
My husband came in on a K1 visa (2016) and everything went smoothly, he's been living here for awhile and we are just about to apply to remove conditions on his greencard. So next year (end of 2019) we will then apply for him to receive his citizenship here in the USA. 
Once he gets his citizenship here shortly after we plan to move back to England. 
We will be able to live with his parents until we find a place of our own.

So my question is how exactly do we go about that????

• I know we need to meet the financial requirements of 18,500 pounds a year, he does. ( But obviously it's in dollars)  Does that matter?

The one thing that confuses me is.. does he have to be living in the UK with a job in order for me to be able to move over. 
OR
Could we have everything figured out including the paperwork and the financial requirements and enter the country together? 

Help!!

Thread is moved from Off Topic to the "Emigrating Outside the US" forum, where similar matters are discussed.

If, by the time you apply, he has been with the same employer for 6 months or more here in the US, earning a wage that is the same as or more than the U.K. requirement for sponsorship AND has proof of a job offer in the U.K. within 8 weeks of arrival then he doesn't need to go ahead of you - you can return together.

So when we apply we would do the one for joining a spouse (sorry I dont know the correct name of it), correct? And we would have to send that he has proof of a job over there with that paperwork?

Sorry for the confusion, I just know when we applied to get him here it was multiple different steps and many forms we had to send off. But with me entering the UK it seems like just one form has to be sent off. But, i could be completely wrong it seems

Yes it's just one set of paperwork. He will need proof of the job offer - so an official job offer letter from the company on logo paper, for example. As you will be applying from overseas, it's all done online initially and then they tell you where to send the supporting documents such as marriage certificate, etc.
