Yes the Quilla appeal was succesfulshade00 wrote:Hi,
I have been hearing alot of rumours that the uk spouse visa age has changed from 21 years old to 18 years old.
I heard there was a case in december which was won. The law has been changed back to 18 years old but not enforced yet legally.
I contacted a few solicitors and they stated that the law has changed back to 18 years old but will be enforced in 5 weeks.
Some solicitors stated it has not changed others told me differenct things.
Not sure what to do..
Anyone shed some light about this or info you know of..
Thank you
I would not want to risk it getting married to someone under 21 as yet because as Casa says the age is still 21. The matter is still being challenged by UKBA through the courts and this could take some time yet.harv wrote:I think the only way to work through the current laws would be to get lucky and get a refusal with the right of apeal and win the case through the apeal. As I understand currently when an application is refused due to age restrictions the appelant is not given the right of apeal. So if you are lucky and get the right of apeal you may win your case in court and get visa. Otherwise wait for your partner to turn 21.
It is most importantly protecting young people who may not have the freedom to say no to marriage . The law does not prevent the marriage just the route to settlement. . You can get on with your life you can visit or live in your spouses country .taufeeq85 wrote:I am in the situation where my fiance is under 21 and am over 21 but due to the unfair and disgraceful law of this country (i.e. U.K.) we cannot get married and live in the U.K. where i currently live and work.
I did hear a few rumours spreading around that the law might be changed back to 18 from the ridiculous age of 21. In my opinion once a person reaches 18 they are old and ugly enough to decide what they want and can make independent decisions but the current UK Marriage Law is restricting genuine people who want to get married and join their partners in the UK just because one or both of them are under the age of 21!!!!
Can someone let me know as soon as this law is reversed back to the age of 18 so that we can get on with our lives
