Hi Sally

Have some replies been removed from you post, or am I going mad?

The application for a fiance visa has been approved. We are the happiest people alive. So relieved we can start our family together.

I wish to thank everyone on the board who helped and gave their advice.

A special thanks to Victoria. S and Chris Fysh.

guess he married you for a visa and doesn't need to discuss it with you right now. probably looking into his alternate options. Why make a statement like this..... It serves no purpose than to upset and compound peoples' misery. Nobody asked you for your opinion on the relationship, furthermore wha...

Thanks for the advice so far - real eye opener. Explains why my brother in law refused to visit us a couple of years ago - he said 'What sort of country is this where you can die waiting to see a doctor' They pay for treatment in Pakistan - but its affordable for all. Will explore this health insur...

If they are visitors ie tourists on a visitor visa, they have no right to NHS healthcare. They will need to take out private health insurance, which is ussually part of travel insurance. Just the same way if someone from the UK went to visit outside the EU.

I think 3 or 4.

These airports are small.

I'd probably opt for the Amsterdam, and make it a Friday when the rest of the passengers will be going for stag/hen weekends.

The ones from Manchester are long haul, and will always attract a bit more attention.

Hey! Well done. Thank you for letting us know. I'm sure there's much we can all learn from your scenario.

I hope your family enjoy their visit.

You have to pay the fee as listed on the web site for the local British High Commission, wherever you are applying.
Having just submitted one in Kingston is was a snip at about £580! As for what you have to pay once married in England, I've no idea, but if anyone knows.....

Best of luck. Sounds like you've done the best preperation you can. I think you're doing the right thing, sometimes things come down to a matter of principal.....

As for the format of the hearing, I've no idea, I'm sure someone may come with the info for you.

Please let us know how you get on.

Smaller airports would mean less chance of getting caught - Avoid all London Airports if possible - Edinburgh, Glasgow Prestwick being good what about leeds/bradford or manchester? thanks Manchester is the third largest airport in the UK (out of about 50). Amazing really seen as it's not in London....

I don't know if you've ever been to Manchester, but the airport isn't small. They are checking passports when leaving. Thats what i said its all on urs luck,manchister is small airport as compare to Heathrow,Getwick or other london airport. it is just walking on fire lolzzz if you are lucky then yo...

I went to Jamaica from Manchester and they stopped me and I am white Oh right! As I went through immigration, just after security @ Manchester, the only people who the I saw the immigration officers pick out were black. But I suppose I was only in this area for about 5 minutes. But considering the ...

Hi On what grounds have you been given to appeal? I'm currently waiting to hear regards an appeal for a visitors visa, I had to appeal under the Human Rights Act. Also, when did you submit your appeal? Just to give me an idea of when mine might be heard. Well initially after we heard that the appli...

Hi Regards Gatwick. When traveling into Gatwick on a domestic flight, you have to clear security/customs etc, then reenter through their security and immigration. I've done this connection numerous times, it's a nuisance. Heathrow. From what I can remember, I think I would have had to clear immigrat...

Thanks Victoria....

Hi

On what grounds have you been given to appeal? I'm currently waiting to hear regards an appeal for a visitors visa, I had to appeal under the Human Rights Act.

Also, when did you submit your appeal? Just to give me an idea of when mine might be heard.

Back again. As of today we have submitted a fiance visa application in Kingston. I have really good help and advise and submitted the best application we could. However, something the person who took the application has said has got me worrying. They said that we should have submitted evidence that ...

You can get married as soon as you have a decree absolute. No need to wait.

What's a proxy marriage?

Hi Sally Really sorry to hear of your refusal. With regards your appeal. Yes I think you need to list all the reasons for refusal and then explain why this is not right. Money may be tight now, but will you be able to raise some funds for representation when the hearing comes around, which will take...

As far as I'm aware, she can apply for a fiance visa as soon as she returns home, there is no need to wait.

Just make sure that she doesn't overstay on the visitor visa, otherwise you'll have had it. Has the visitor visa already been issued?

On the form for fiance visa, it asks for previous passport numbers, so they'll be able to check your records. They also require information of all previous visa applications, with reference numbers. Plus you can submit photocopies of the visas in your previous passport. Having a new passport couldn'...

Hi

I think you need to be more specific about your circumstances because visas can be refused for a million and one reasons.

If you explain yourself, you'll find people really helpful about your situation, that's certainly what I've found.
