Bringing New Wife as My Dependant Partner to UK

Post by thmansvn » Tue Mar 29, 2022 10:58 pm

Hello everyone,

I've spent 4+ years in the UK on ICT visa and switched to Skilled Worker Visa recently. Now my long distance relationship partner and I have decided to get married and I want her to come to live with me in the UK.

Will the marriage certificate be enough to confirm relationship? I am afraid that home office may find recent marriage certificate suspicious. Just want to be fully prepared for the application and don't get refusal for lack of evidence. What kind of proof can I add to support the application?

Certificate is enough. Recent or not does not matter.

Hi,

May I know has your wife gotten her dependent visa granted? I’m on the same boat, got married the day before application. Now I’m so worried they might suggest it’s not a genuine relationship.

Thank you for your good words. Hopefully they will request additional documents from me, so I can send them those photographs and chat logs. Finger crossed.
