Thanks a lot marie ... phew I was kinna assumed things will work out fine if she comes here as a visitor. Lucky I did not make that mistake, thanks guys for helping me out. I will look at immigration for family members section and see if she can come here as a dependant.
Olisun thanks mate, I think I we will try to apply for her dependant visa from HK itself because we want to spend this christmas together :) .. but I was just wondering supposed she comes here (as a visitor) and we get married here in UK instead then what ?

You can apply for HSMP but you wont be able to switch your FLR to HSMP holder while in-country, and also it turns out the in country letter wont work for EC from you home country, so in short unless he/she is graduating from UK institute then she wont be able to apply for HSMP while in country. I t...
Hi There, A friend of mine wanted to apply for HSMP. He is currently in the UK as a student and I am helping him out with the application.

Bani dude .. don't be disheartened .. you are on the safer side .. incase the ECO says that he issued the 6 months visa on purpose do ask him the reason and keep the letter it might be useful when you apply for your extension .. and if he says it was a mistake then you can get a one year visa .. so ...
did you get your EC yet ? could you tell me what documents you submitted and how many days they took for your EC ? I am going to apply for EC from Hong Kong and I found there are no clear directions as to what documents I need to submit.

At first, we give you permission to stay in the UK for a year to seek work or self-employment opportunities. After a year, you can apply to stay for l...
