What nationality are you?Daniellukas wrote:I am 33 year old settled in the U.K. I legally married (in a registered office) to a girl in May 2008 in Eritrea. she was 18 at that time. I have all photos for the marriage cermoney. but I was not able to apply for a marriage visa at that time becouse my income was not sufficient.
At the moment I have good job and sufficient income to maintain her, but since the age limit for a marriage visa have been raise from 18- 21, and my wife is 19 now. I am concerned if this would apply to us, considering that we have got married before 27/11/2008 and can prove that. if it does please advise me what to do, and if there is any way to win an appeal.
Irrespective of when you got married,the applicant at the time of an application must be 21. Your marriage is legal and will be accepted as genuine if and when she applys, but I am afraid if she applys for a British visa, she has to abide by the 21 and over rule. There is no right appeal against this law.I am concerned if this would apply to us, considering that we have got married before 27/11/2008 and can prove that. if it does please advise me what to do, and if there is any way to win an appeal.
