Can anyone suggest me if i should get a return ticket, when leaving uk voluntarily as i am a overstayer. I have a fiance'e here to whom i intend to rejoin after getting appropriate visa.
Will i be given trouble at the airport while i am leaving from heathrow.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

You should have no problems at the airport and getting a return ticket if it is cheaper than two singles makes good sense
Getting a spousal or fiancee visa should be no problem as you are following HO guidelines

Why get a return ticket?.

You must be very confident of getting a visa on your return to your country and then returning legally back to teh UK


I think your return ticket will almost certainly expire before the appropiate visa is granted to you and thus you have wasted a few quids for nothing.

I accept you should have no problem when leaving UK with a return ticket.

For some wierd reason, airline 'return' tickets are almost always cheaper than 'single'! :?

Unless it's an 'open' return with no forward date specified...which presumably is what would be needed.

Return ticket is out of touch as you dont know when you would be able to get visa.So waste of dam money.
