Marriage Visa

[Tui32]

Hi Guys
Would really appreciate someones help as Im so confused.
Ok so a year and a half ago I met a guy and to cut a long story short we're now engaged.
As he was only on a student visa he has now had to travel back to Africa before his visa expired.
He wants to come back to carry on his studies and also so that we can finally marry.
I've had a look at all of the relevant pages but Im finding it very confusing.
Im aware of the £18,600 income needed however I am on DLA so Im not sure if Im exempt or not?

I have recently been let go of a part time job however plan on getting a full time job for the next 6 months while Im off from uni. My fiancé also had a part time job when he was here, and will be returning to the same job once he returns.

I was just wondering where we stand in terms of him staying for good?

How will your fiance return to his part-time job without a valid visa permitting him to work? His 'prospective' future earnings can't be taken in consideration as he's not resident in the UK. I'm assuming that if you take a full-time job for 6 months this will affect your DLA payments?

What type of DLA are you receiving? Is it on higher rate for personal care and mobility? , you must be on higher rate before you can be exempted.
