Visitor Suspicion?

Post by UberKrieger » Thu May 24, 2007 6:45 am

Hello, I need some advice on whether or not my future wife will be allowed to visit the UK without a Visa.

My fiancee applied for a Working HolidayMaker Visa a few months back for which she was denied because they believed she accumulated the money falsely to secure entry clearance and they were suspicious that she was solely going there to work. She has visited the UK on 2 previous occasions on which she was given and entry warning stamp and both visits.

We plan to get married in Canada in the future and while i'm working in the UK to save up for her spouse/settlement Visa,

Will she be able to visit me without a Visa, As long as she has;

1. Return Ticket
2. Enough Funds
3. Suitable Accommodation
4. A letter from seeing sponsoring her to stay with me for her visit
5. Evidence that she's married to me

Or will they deny her completely out of suspicion that she will indefinately live/immigrate to the UK.

Thank you for all your help with me on this.

It is a difficult situation, as all long distance relationship are in one way or another.

The Immigration people have probably noticed that your fiancee has no job but can afford to come to the UK. Though working holiday visas are for just that - holiday when you don't have enough money for it without working.

I am also curious why, if I understand correctly, she was given a written stamped warning in her passport both times for visits of 1 Month First Visit, 3 Months Second Visit. Or was her passport just stamped "not valid for employment", but not with a specific warning?

She was stamped with a black stamp saying Leave to Enter/Remain 6 Months and it has a little code on it. If you would like to know more about my situation here it is
