Spouse Visa

  • I don't know where to start. I am married to a British Citizen and am not going to mail my documents in until a week and a half from now. What is the longest it will take if I hit peak time? They say 5 to 10 business days, but I am still worried. How strict is the UK embassy? MY husband and I don't have savings, but he is employed and we are not seeking public funds. Do I have a chance?

  • sattelment visa after 2 years spouse visa

    Dear all, I am having a struggle understanding the immigration rules. I from South Africa and I went to the UK under the working holiday rules. I then genuinely fell in love to a British citizen and moved together. When my visa was about to expire we then decided to go to be married in South Africa and from there apply for the relevant spouse visa which was then granted with no issues.
    Today this visa is expiring and I was told to apply for a settlement visa. But reading through the application I have noticed a question which asks if my husband is working and how we live 9renting or council accommodation).
    Unfortunately my husband was ill before I met him and out of work, he was also receiving disability allowance and we both lived in the flat assigned by the council to him.
    Off course we must state other ways as we worry that based on my husband profile I may not be granted any settlement visa. Is it so?
    We both worry very much what to say as we truly committed to one another.
    Another problem is the fact that he changed his name time ago (the name we married on) but all his benefit incomes are registered under his old name which he had to keep as he feared it may have caused more confusion. Therefore all documents staying his income and so on are on a different name other then his new one…

    What can we do? I have been however advised to state that he isn’t working due to illness but not in receipt of any benefits. Further to state we live in a rented accommodation other then council.

    I know it is difficult to advice, but any suggestion is welcome. The best would be if he could go back to work like yesterday for the time being…but you know how difficult that can be…especially when you can’t walk and move very well…Any advice is welcome, or email me directly at [email removed]

  • Help from spouse visa to settelment

    hello, i am married to a british citizen who has been ill and out of work from the time before we met. I was granted a spouse visa which expires next month. Now we have to apply from the UK and i was reading the application which asks details of earning and if my husband is getting public funds etc...WHAT DO I DO? WHAT DO I SAY? Will the fact affect my application? I have been working all the time and i am also studying and we both have a healthy savings and no debts. will that count something? In addition we live in a flat which was assigned at the time to him by the council. However he is planning to go back to work even with his illness if necessary for my visa. Is that necessary? I NEED TO KNOW ASAP WHAT SHOULD WE DO...DOES ANYONE HAVE A SIMILAR EXAMPLE OR EXPERIENCE ON THIS MATTER? YOUR INPUT IS MORE THEN WELCOME. THANK YOU

  • Bheng VISA

    YOUR SPOSE VISA EXPIRES IN 2009. mEANWHILE YOU MUST COMPLETE A LIFE IN THE IK TEST WHICH IS A VERY BASIC TEST ABOUT GENERAL KNOWLEDGE IN THE UK.THE COST OF THIS COURSE IS OF GBP 30 AND ONCE YOU PASST YOU WILL BE ABLE TO APPLY FOR A SETTLEMENT VISA. THIS WILL BE EASILY GRANTED IF YOU COMPLY WITH IT'S REQUIRMENT. WHAT'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE SATTELMENT VISA IS YOU BEING ABLE TO SUPPORT YOUR SELF BY MEANS OF WORKING. YOU BOTH MUST HAVE EARNINGS AND A PERMANENT ACCOMMODATION WHERE YOU PAY RENT(THEY WILL ASK TO SEE YOUR INCOME, BANK STATEMENTS, TENANCY AGREEMENT AND EVIDENCE THAT YOU ARE PAYING RENT. IN CASE YOUR VISA APPLICATION IS DENIED YOU ARE GIVEN TIME TO APPEAL AGAINST THEIR DECISION OR TAKE ARRANGEMENT BEFORE LEAVING. GENERALLY THEY WILL GRANT YOU ADDITIONAL 6-12-24 MONTHS BEFORE YOU ARE ASKED TO LEAVE THE UK. BUT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN THAT OFTEN UNLESS YOU ARE TRULY FINANCIALLY AT BOTTOM LEVEL OR YOUR MARRIAGE ISNT WORKING. HOPE THIS HELPS

    Hi First of all I would like to make it clear that the UK have now made a rule where English written exam is compulsory, which is good I suppose, people who can't speak or write English what benefit can they be to the country.i'm not racist in anyway, i'm a british born muslim but seriously think that only educated people who have something to offer the UK economy and country should be allowed.

  • Husbands life in danger

    I am a british born citizen and got married with a pakistani citizen in Feb 08, we applied for his visa but it could rejected due to 1 or 2 papers missing, we sent them papers off via my immigration lawyer to the embassy who refused and now the hearing date has arrived via the AIT to attend in September, my husbands life was in danger since his mother died in Jan and transfered all her millions worth of assett to her son meaning my husband, since then his step dad and step auncle who are very powerful people in Pakistan have tried to get my husband killed, he got fired at once the bullet went through his arm, he survived thank god and then about 3 weeks ago he got attacked by 2 men again and he got stabbed in the leg and he ran for his life again, he has been hiding from one place to another and i written to all my MP etc begging for help but the AIT/Judge still refused to give me an earlier date for an hearing even though the above situation has been mentioned to them by me and my MP.Step auncle is an overseas minister in Pakistan and step dad is a high ranked Brigadier in Islamabad, my husband could not even go to the police over there because they wont listen to my husband they have power over them e.g ministers etc, corruption, bribery, power and money talks in countries like that.When my husband tried to get a visa to go dubai the guy who was sorting the tickets and visa out for my husband to escape for his life to Dubai even he said that there is a restriction for my husband to go out of the country, guess who would of arranged that, the oversea's minister off course, evil people, but thank god with the help of some people we managed to get him out to dubai, he is there now but he is in position that in order for him to stay there he needs to work and get a work visa for 3 yrs but the hearing date is close as well, his visa expires for dubai at the end of september but we dont want him to go back to pakistan because the chance will be that he will get killed, so if he gets a job there and gets a visa in the UK, can he stay in dubai to complete his 3 yrs contract or will he never ever get a chance to come to the UK, which is what we both want, because if we wait for the hearing and he has a job then that may ruin the chances for him to come here in the UK, and if he does not get a job and the visa is refused for the UK and he does not get a job in dubai that means he may have to go back to pakistan which is not safe for him, we are stuck both ways, please can anyone advise, because if he gets a job in dubai then he is stuck in a 3yr contract..
    i hope someone understands where i am coming from.

Then he applied for a marriage visa, it was granted and he was given 6 months,After we married he had to reply for 2 year visa and work permit, It was expensive but we got it, It expired in august, we applied for settlement visa (ILTR) AGAIN IT WAS EXPENSIVE, £750 and took about 8 weeks. My husband isnt working and i only work part time!!!!!! If you are honest, have all the paperwork they need and married for love and not just for a visa, then you shouldnt have any problems, but i would never marry a turk who worked in the tourist industry, they are looking for a way out of turkey and into uk and as soon as they have what they want, will dump you, they have about 15 women applying to bring them into the country!!!!!!!!! if they dont have home papers, money etc, dont trust them, believe me i experienced it, no matter how much they tell you they love you, they will sound so convincing because they are practising it on so many women,

  • REPLY TO - i do not want ot give the indefenite stay to my husband...

    You can write/call to homeoffice regarding cancellation of his visa. This will done in UK itself and his endorsed spouse visa stamp in the passport will cancelled/nullified in their records and they will in turn send a letter stating to his address about it and without any next question, he will given around 30-45 days to leave the country unless he wants to fight a legal case (which is very hard for him to win as domestic violence is treating VERY STRICTLY HERE IN UK)
    Grounds to be made while writing to homeoffice (Sheffield):
    1. He abuses me (physical or verbal or mental)
    2. He is forcing me to commit for something which i dont want.
    3. You should have a police complaint lodged against him for the abuse as a proof.

    At the end of two years of spouse visa, its solely YOU who has to sign the document with other bills and any kinda of joint documents of your two year stay. Your family, his family or him CANNOT do anything.

    Mainly homeoffice select on following criteria:
    1. Permanent income support from an sponsoring indiviual OR Property or business on his/her name.
    2. Genuine and legal marriage setup (ur case, if online, any emails or phone conversations etc).
    3. Minimum Savings of atleast 3-4 months (roughly about £4000-6000..exclusively meant for you unless he has a fixed income on monthly basis) for your complete stay and you can also mention further about your potentiality to secure a job after coming to UK.
    4. A well-balanced financial statement showing your payouts and earnings plus your 3-6 months bank statments, salary slips.

    1. Why you didnt approach homeoffice on the first place when you both were seperated?
    2. What if he accuses you that you were not willing to stay with him or he was made homeless with certain grounds?

    Now that you are keen, just call or write to homeoffice explaining them the issue. They can cancel the visa stamp. And by you calling them and letting them know they can pin down the person faster. If you wish..you can also say his future plans or where could reside etc. Rest they shall look after the matter.

    He has been domestically violence towards me where the police got involved... I had a good conversation about this with the police and they said that they will ring home office and have his visa stamped as there is trouble. As a family we suggested that he went back home so that we could have a break.... and when things have calmed down he will come back as we did need a break. However, he returned without me knowing and living with family friends... I just have this wiered feeling that he has come back to get a permanent stay in the UK and doesnt care less about me!
    I rang the Home office helpline and spoke to some1 who clearly said that he can not get a stay without my consent and with full papers...

    As per homeoffice requirements:

    Your husband, wife or civil partner may come with you to the United Kingdom, or join you here, if you are aged 18 or over and you:

    1. currently live in the United Kingdom and are settled here; or
    2. are returning to the United Kingdom with him/her to live here permanently.

    He/she must show that:

    2. you are going to live together permanently as man and wife, or as civil partners;
    you have met each other;
    3. you can support yourselves and any dependants without help from public funds;

    Hi Tania,

    As you said though you are applying but the sponsor papers still require his name which means the normal paper work will not differ (i.e., for anyone applying from outside UK as a spouse/dependant visa). The application will be weighted and looked more from his side rather yours with a simple reason as the other person being settled in UK.

    Yes, application will be effected if he is in receivership of public funds as that includes in the basic criteria for spouse visa application.

    The application will also be looked at the following aspect that the sponsorer should be paying tax to the government for minimum 6 months through any kind of regular income (employed or self employed).

    For your application, you dont have to show anything at all as the "application will seen from his side as mentioned earlier". But it doesnt even effect the application so if you feel like you can.

    Hi sheenal,

    Before reading, i am referring below as "settled partner"-sheenal and "spouse"- to your husband.

    UK spouse visa after 2 years can conclude only three results :-
    1) leads to ILR
    2) leads to further extension to the spouse visa after 2 years rather an ILR (this happens when a settled person thinks relationship needs more time ), OR
    3) leads to returning back to spouse home country, if marriage doesnt work.

    This visa cannot be changed to ANY OTHER category while staying in UK.

    Now if marriage resulting in dispute (with whatever situation.
    (A)Things a settled partner can do:----
    1) Settled partner has right to reveal to HO regarding the marriage for not being a success, if this is done as early as possible, coz HO to act on a application filed within 3-6 months of visa will enforce them quickly to remove the spouse which is sooner the later.
    2) Settled partner can get some sound evidence in case later requiring in the court. But mostly they are not needed in court as per the law. As for a settled partner, just the words are enough by saying that he was abusive, not responsible etc etc and marriage didnt work. Generally UK law favours women.

    (B) Things a Spouse can do:-------
    1) Needs substantially proving and justifying to HO or later in court why he needs a ILR and on what grounds?
    2) That can be by means valid evidence that he was exploited and had faced domestic violence or made homeless on certain grounds. This seems quite tough for a man to proof on a woman in the UK without any substantial evidence.

    And, Yes he cannot get a stay without your consent. But that stay your talking is through a spouse visa leading to ILR.

    But what i was talking previously was a stay on grounds of domestic violence (if) filed by your husband. For that he doesnt need your consent. But for that also firstly he needs a divorce.

    But overall i find diminishing chances for him to secure an ILR unless he strongly proves domestic violence. As mainly women are more related to domestic violence issues rather men.

    I am in the middle of applying a spouse visa from Malaysia. I am a bit confused about teh supporting document part even though I have called up teh visa centre who was not really informative.

    I know that i would have to provide two sets of all printed documents eg 2 sets of our email correspondance, 2 sets of bank statements where by one has to be original and the other one a certify true copy. I was just wondering whether it is like that in every country because i never get to read from other applicants about having to hand in two sets of all printed matters.

    The other query I have is if my occupational status would affect the application since I am no longer working , my british husband is currently supporting me.

    It would be really great if someone could response to my queries.

    I wish everyone best of luck with their application since Christmas is approaching and I would not wish anyone to spend it away from their loved ones.

My question is- If i want to be married to him and move to UK, can i visit UK as a tourist and get married to him? If yes, will i stand a chance of converting a tourist visa into a spouse visa? What is the exact process like and what are the terms and conditions? Can anyone please help?
