Hi Shoonoo,
We are in a similar situation to you, confused by the online VAF4A application process.
Can you please confirm that Part 3 is about the applicant and NOT the sponsor?
How did you find this out?...We're getting lots of mixed messages!
Thanks so much

Yes, that was one possibility, but I'll be working in England. Rather than have her wait in Australia for the visa whilst I am in England, we thought it might be easier for her to apply from France (we have friends that live there y'see). But we aren't sure if that's possible!

I have a UK passport and my Australian wife is applying for a spousal Visa to the UK. Can we apply for her UK Spousal visa from a country other than Australia...eg France?

... and just an update in case anyone in a similar position is interested in my case, yesterday (March 6, 2013) I received confirmation that I can register as a British citizen, so everything worked out fine!

Thanks so much for that - although I still find it a bit confusing, after following it all through and reading the various acts, I think I should be ok.

I'll post an update when I find out more!

Cheers,

anyone?

Good question! One of my referees is a retired doctor. I/he didn't state on the form that he was retired, although his age (78) was specified, which might give the game away. My application (UKM) was received in early Jan this year, and I haven't heard anything back from them. I'm assuming if things...

Hello all, I have a query regarding applying for British Citizenship through UKM means (I have already applied, but just wondering if someone could confirm my thoughts/reasoning).
