My girlfriend has just applied for her fiancée visa so we can marry in the UK. I'm a British citizen (Born and bred here) and she is Chinese. I'm 25, she's 24. No dodgy age gap or anything here
Basically when she was applying for the Visa at the application centre, they told her she would definitely have an interview (this was before they had seen the documents she was handing in).
However I was under the impression an interview was only required when there is something lacking in the supporting documentation (regardless of visa type). Am i wrong?
Back when we first decided to meet each other the first visa we ever applied for was a Visitor Visa. The first application was refused because I didn't provide documents such as a letters from my employer, proof the house she was staying in was suitable etc.. True this was my fault through inexperience.. However! I asked them before the interview if extra documents were required and they explicitly said no extra documents were needed; then they proceeded to ask for “extra documentsâ€
