Im simply passing on information I was given by the relevant people, when my husband applied for his visa . Furthermore, my cousin married her fiance here after he applied for a fiance visa and she was advised the same. She never made any bookings/arrangements, nor did she supply copies of emails ma...
Casa, I don't see how my post is incorrect - I was advising Milo85 that third party support is an option for them as they both are unemployed . I doubt it very much that without that third party support, that he would be granted a visa to come and marry when both have no jobs and no third party supp...
Your best option is for your girlfriend to come to UK alone, she will need to show she has adequate accommodation for you to join her, has a job, and can support you since on a fiancee visa you are unable to work at all, until you have changed visa status to spouse after the marriage. Third party su...
I used to check his visa updates about a trillion times a day, as did he and I remember the day before he got the visa it literally said nothing, so we knew it was possibly in the process of being updated. It only changed the day after we actually got the visa to "Documents with Courier" W...
Just checked the most recent update of Processing Times in Cairo (that being June). Only 22 settlement decisions were made, with 86% made in 60 days and 95% made in 90 days.
Hi Sweet Missy, Aww you still waiting!! I have been checking now and again to see if you had updated any thread. When my husband applied, after about week 7 I was emailing Worldbridge, and the Egyptain Embassy in UK and the British Embassy in Cairo I think! lol It was the most stressful time of our ...
HI, When I prepared my husbands spouse application we used a Lever Arch file. I typed up an Index at the front and used card dividers to separate each section, as per the Index. I placed everything in plastic wallets also. I suspect you are including far too much if you need two folders. I was extre...
Hi guys, My husband got his spouse visa last year on 17th May 2010 valid until 17th Aug 2012. However he flew to me in UK on 24th May 2010. I understood it that he should apply for ILR no earlier than 28 days before the expiry of his visa, i.e 28 days before 17th August 2012. However I have since be...
Hi So Hopeful, I simply copied my Tenancy Agreement and I highlighted the clause which stated how many people could live there. There was also an additional clause in mine, stating that should I die my tenancy agreement would pass to my spouse, even if they were not on the Agreement. This reassured ...
from reading your post it seems clear that you don't meet the criteria since you have no savings, income when your in the Uk so are unable to support yourself and child without recourse to public funds. It may be helpful if you can instruct solicitors to represent you in contact matters, as the evid...
In order to qualify for entry clearance in this regard you need to meet the crieria set out in para 246 HC 395:- -the applicant is the parent of a child who is resident in UK and; -the parent with whom the child permanently resides with is resident in UK and; -the applicant produce evidence that the...
HI, there is a special provision whereby if your marriage has broken down because of domestic violence, which you say you are subject to, then you can apply for indefinite leave to remain on this basis. para 289A HC 395 provides that where a relationship breaks down due to domestic violence and ther...
Hi, you can marry fairly easily since the Certificate of Approval was abolished. However is it really worth it? Since you are doing this while you remain in breach of immigration laws , you are likely to be refused leave to remain, when you get round to applying. You should return to your home count...
Hi sweet missy, what i would mention is to check airlines as some of them will not carry egyptian nationals as well as some other nationalities ( am unsure whether this actually applies when they have 2 year temporary settlement or not), but it was something I came across when I booked my husband's ...
The more I think about it, the more I think its probably money well spent , especially when you remember back to the stress waiting for the settlement visa the first time! I think we'll be doing that. Thanks for your input guys, hope you hear good news soon tunde10
Ive just had a look on UKBA, here the link http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/partnersandfamilies/partners/fianceesproposedcivilpartners/. You will see it says a fiance visa is issued as it is your intention to marry withint 6 months. Once married, you can apply from UK for settlement. Hope this helps
I may be wrong, and Im sure someone will correct me if so, but I always beleived that when applying for a fiance visa it was with the intention of marrying within the six months. Have a look on the UKBA website and read their guidance notes for Fiance Visa
Think we may be tempted to go in person, I seem to be reading a few horror stories where applications have been rejected because the fee was unable to be taken etc etc.
Just slightly sickening to have pay an extra £300 to do it. Oh well!
My husband is due to apply for his IDR at the end of the year. We have had a look at the form he needs to complete, along with documentation. Initially we were going to send this by special delivery at the appropriate time, but I am now starting to wonder whether we should attend in person. Does it ...
HI Dan, We were successful last year with my husband's visa which I put together. I did infact use a lever archer folder with dividers and typed up a "Contents Page" which I placed at the front. I put everything in clear plastic wallets and including as much as I could think of i.e A lette...
