thanks, i will get her to call them once she arrives.

can she travel on this type of visa? to countries like spain? france? or can she only visit the countries that her cuban passport entitles her to without having to be invited, i think in europe there are only a few like serbia, montenegro.

Hi Everyone!

So my wifes visa application has been approved and she is coming here on the 22nd April !

Can she work on this type of visa and how long does it take? She will have to apply for a National Insurance card im guessing.

Thanks

She got the visa!!!! I'm so excited!!!!

It starts from 20th April and I have booked her flight from 22nd April.

Thanks for the all help here over the last few years I could not have done this without you guys

Thanks!

The visa application fee was paid for when she handed in the papers. The man on the phone said the decision is ready and she just needs to go in. I know it's a little bit different in Cuba with the paperwork! I hope it's a yes

So my wife in Cuba has handed all the paper work in as of 22nd feb and I called the British consulate today and they said they have a decision and want her to come in tomorrow to tell her the decision. So my questions are, Will they tell her the fate of the application tomorrow? Is it normal not to ...

So my wife is handing in all the papers and the money tomorrow to the Cuban embassy , does anyone know what the procedure is after she's handed it all in? What happens next? How long can it take? Thanks Ps thanks everyone for answering my questions over the last year because that helped me sort all ...

Thanks for the link. But it just says proof of accomadation, is there anything more specific? That to me means a letter from my landlord saying i am staying there and he is happy to let me wife stay as well. It has listed most things you need, a rental agreement is a must, a letter from landlord is...

You'll need to submit evidence of the size of the property and rooms to show it won't be overcrowded. Your cousin will also have to submit a letter agreeing to you living there and if he has a mortgage on the property, a copy of the mortgage agreement. If he owns it outright, a copy of the deeds. I...

another question in regards to this application, when it comes to accomadation i will most likely be staying with my cousin in his 2 bed flat. there will be him and his gf and me and her in the place, its 2 story flat. would immigration have a problem if i am staying rent free? it would only be for ...

Hi, I got married in cuba earlier this year. My wife is starting the paperwork in cuba right now, she has passed her english test and is gathering the evidence and has the marriage certificate. Which application do i need to do from the uk ? the ukba site is confusing. I know i will have to show my ...

Sorry about all the questions.

So when i start my part of the application here, showing bank statements etc , I won't need the marriage certificate ? I thought i would but if I don't that's great.

Thanks for the reply.

I can get the original on saturday because a friend is coming frm Cuba to England. Is it better I have the original here? And get her to make a certified copy over there ?

Hi all,

Do I need the original marriage certificate? We got married in Cuba earlier this year. So I will need it for my application and it can be translated here?

Just seeing if there were any other option. So i will apply for a spouse visa. question is when it comes to how much money i should have saved and accomadation. Would 2k in savings and a 1 bedroom flat for 2 of us be ok? i am scared they will reject the application. I have a permanent job and earn o...

Hello everyone. Some might already know me on here? But anyway....... I know the immigration law is changing at the end of the month so you can marry no eu nationals who are over 18. I am married to my cuban wife who is 20 and i am 26 and a british citizen. We got married last year. I want to bring ...

Sorry I meant to say she is 21 in Feb 2012!

We are married by Cuban law and we plan to marry here, so which visa would I apply for ?

I could ask her sister to apply via family visa if all else fails.

Hi everyone, got a host of questions, the story is i just recently married my cuban girlfriend in cuba, she has been to the uk twice already for 6 months each time on a family visa her sister applied for, first time was jul 2009 -dec 2009 and the july 2010 to jan 2011. she is 20 and i am a british n...

Hello all, Some of you maybe familiar with my story by now but i had another question to ask.... Is there a way i can go out of england with my fiance? like to france or spain? or other eu country? If you dont know my story my fiance is from cuba and is 19 and i am a british citizen, her family visa...

Just looking for more advice. Just to summarize my situation,I am a British citizen and my fiancé is Cuban and here on a family visit visa until Jan 2011, she will be 20 by then. We want to get married and I know the only possible way would be the Anglican church way or to possibly move to an eu co...

Ok so we can get married via coa but that can take a while or we could get married in a Anglican church if i can find someone that believes the marriage is genuine. She is approaching her 2nd month of her 6 month visa.

Anyone have advice for me???

thanks i gave that a read.

so technically if its abolished in november for example then to get married we just need to give 2 weeks notice and thats it ?

thanks

Just wanted to bring this topic back, she is in the country now and we want to get married. I heard there has been a change in the law for coa's? So what options do we have??? Thanks

Is that list updated recently? do you think she can go egypt? i havent seen anything to say she cant on the egyptian embassy site
