I will do this same thing next week. In fact I'm already in UK - I just entered with my wife, but I stay quiet and the guy give me a tourist visa.Jambo wrote:Although the HO likes to create the impression that a visa is needed, legally it is not.
Get on a plane (being Australian there is no need for a visa) and when you land, she should enter as a wife as a EEA national (not as a tourist). You just need to show your passports and a marriage certificate. Nothing else. She will get a stamp called Code 1A valid for 6 months which will allow her to work. Simple.
Really? So it could be an option for us to fly from Mexico to the UK with no visas and she will still able to work for 6 months? Could she also apply for the resident card once she is there? I have plans to stay for a couple of years.Jambo wrote:Get on a plane (being Australian there is no need for a visa) and when you land, she should enter as a wife as a EEA national (not as a tourist).

No no New York is not an option for me, too expensive just to stay there. My options where Los Angeles because we have friends there so we have a place to stay. And Madrid where my family will have us so we will not spend money on that. Also Madrid is close to the UK so the flight option is not bad.Jambo wrote:You can apply at any consulate that offers visa services. In the US only the NYC consulate offers visa services (as most of US citizens don't need a visa).
So feel free to spend money to travel to NY for something you don't need and can receive in 5 minutes at the border.
