Easy on the caps lock!
How do you intend to get married if you are an overstayer? Once you do get married, you can try and make an in-country application with the EEA2 from UK. Expect long delays and persistence will be needed in huge quantities to make it through.

Can you go to Romania and get married there? Would you need a visa to go to Romania? If so, might that be issued?

I'm sorry I just don't understand you say you came to the UK to continue your Master degree, but then did'nt have enough money to continue you studies.
How did you think you would pay for your Master in the first place, without sufficient funds?
You have painted a typical picture of a person who had no intention of either studying or returning to thier homeland.
Why don't you go and live in Romania with your husband.
My patiences with cases like yours is running very thin, but I still wish you luck in the future, even thou I do not see any chance of you not been deported.

He that is without sin cast the first stone, or are you faultless. The cheek of you, if you are going to help be constructive don't start preaching and being all high and mighty.

I agree with Siggi. How can anyone help when the OP changes the story completely within a couple of posts?? "We intend to get married...but don't think we stand a chance" or words to that effect....and then "we married 7 months ago in a Church of England".

when you sign the declaration on any visa app, student visa included, it states
'I am aware that it is an offence under the Immigration Act 1971 (as amended) to make a statement which I know to be false, or not believe to be true, in
order to obtain a visa/entry clearance to the UK. I am also aware that my application will be automatically refused and I may be banned from going to the
UK for 10 years if I use a false document, lie or withhold relevant information. I may also be banned if I have breached immigration laws in the UK. I am
further aware that should I use a false document, lie or withhold relevant information my details may be passed to law enforcement agencies.'
pretty clear to me that signing the declaration and lying is fraud, and like any type of fraud it's a serious offence.

I agree with you Casa (although not necessarily with Siggi in this case - things happen).
Not sure what the OP is suggesting re the student visa either. Did the relationship predate the visa? Please clarify if you want to get realistic advice - as opposed to realistic criticism.
Oh, the drama...!

A Church of England marriage and registry wedding are very different in nature, i am not an expert but people do change their reasons for coming to a country. This is a forum not the AIT and the lady is here to seek help or guidance not to be Judged, if you want to help do that.

So First-Class Moron, are you saying I not allowed to express my deep concerns about immigration abuse, which effects all other legitimate applications?

Perhaps so. But not in outcome, which is that you are married.
Not everyone here is looking to criticise; the OP needs to clarify her background and circumstances if she wants help.

Thank you for all your opinions .I genuinly came to pursue my degree as earlier stated.My sponser a family member passed away.There were finally issues at the time due to his family wanting obviously the share of the money and that is the reason i did not take up my studies.
As well regarding my previous post i only got the idea of marriage from this forum. I have been member of the coe 4 years until now.you have the right to judge me the vicar would never have accepted to conduct the wedding if he had doubts about us.
This forum gives most people ideas and when you follow them then you are judged ....how ironical !
ANYWAY thanks to the person who gave me contacts on finding a lawyer..
PEACE!

Why doesn't she go to live in Romania? Because she has every right to be in the UK to exercise EU Treaty Rights, with her husband, an EU national, who is in the UK exercising EU Treaty Rights, as a self-employed person.
