start at http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk to find out about spouse visas.4evernp wrote:hi
I am a British Citizen ( got converted from British Protected Person status couple of years back) residing in India with my husband who is an Indian citizen. I have been in India since last 40 years and and married to my husband since last 30 years. I have never stayed in United Kingdom. Now I wish to settle down with my husband in UK but dont want to separate from him that is both of us want to move to the UK togather. Is this possible and how ? Please advise. Will be greatly appreciated.
This should not be a problem. Sometimes ECOs will doubt a marriage is genuine where there is a significant *difference* in age, but presumably that does not apply in your case.4evernp wrote:hi john
So u dont think that being aged in the mid 50s has any bearing on the outcome of the application (ofcourse ECO will not say that officially but otherwise). As a moderator do u know of anybody else who has been granted settlement visa at such an age ?
It's true. He should have permanent resident status immediately upon arrival in the UK. But he will still need to wait 3 years in the UK to become a naturalised British citizen. Indian citizenship will be lost when he becomes British although that may not be a problem. Especially with OCI (Overseas Citizenship of India) and PIO (Person of Indian Origin) concessions for former Indian citizens in India.moreover since we have been married four about 30 years now (more than the 4 years rule), i have read a rule on this forum, according to which my spouse can be directly granted Indefinite leave to enter !! Is that true ?
It's true - you can read about it at http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk - although if you got your British citizenship through an upgrade from British protected person then I very much doubt your son will meet the rules.4evernp wrote:hi john
