What citizenship does your friend have and why can she not return home to marry and get spousal visa which is the quickest and easiest method?yusfaith wrote:Can someone advise on the same similar scenario, I have a friend who happens to be a british citizen and have a partner.

Either the spouse visa or unmarried partner would have to be from the home country. Please note that for an unmarried partner application, the requirement is co-habitation for at least 24 months and I note that the couple have only lived 18 months together.yusfaith wrote:The children were born here and got their british passport by registration through their father. They have sought a legal advise they they were given 2 options (1) to return home and re-apply for spouse (2) to apply for discreation base on the children or as unmarried patner.
