Nope - a no-switching rule was introduced around 2003 to prevent people switching in-country from Visit visa.intahnetmonster wrote:Hi everyone,
I got married two weeks ago, and I was hoping to get some advice for the visa application process.
I am a British citizen, but my wife is Indonesian.
I was going to apply for the 'family of a settled person’ visa for my wife, but noticed this takes quite some time (around three months).
I was wondering if it would be safe for me to first apply for a Standard Visitor Visa first, which seems to usually be quicker (around 3 weeks) and then once she is here apply for the proper visa or would this be an issue?

It was taught in English, but no idea if it is NARIC approved. I will try to find outWanderer wrote:Was it taught in English and NARIC approved?
Oh, that sounds interesting. Would it take longer than 1 month? If it's longer then there isn't really much point as I'm 99% sure she will pass the IELTS exam very easily.CR001 wrote:She could get it assessed for comparative purposes by UK NARIC who are registered to assess foreign degrees and the medium of instruction if English to certify it would meet the requirements, but this also takes a bit of time.
What degree qualification does she have?
I am trying to work out if it features on the PBS Calculator to see if it features or is awarded any points (for interest)
