Your spouse’s income should be enough to cover your tuition fees, living expenses, and other costs like health insurance and travel, as required by the country and university.

For Ireland:
- Funds needed: Tuition plus €10,000 - €12,000/year for living expenses (subject to change).

For the UAE:
- Requirements vary by university, but your spouse must show stable income and enough funds to cover both tuition and living costs.

The exact amount depends on your chosen program and university.
