Right here goes, I was married but now divorced to a pinay, we married in PI I have a new gf from Taguig and we now want a visa so she can move here, is a fiancé visa still the best way forward and if so does anyone have a list of our requirments ? my gf has taken her English test already many thanks for any help
Look at the link below, this is the best place to start http://www.british-filipino.com/ind...r-a-partner-spouse-visa-under-new-rules.5740/
Depends on you and your circumstances. There are advantages and disadvantages compared with a spouse visa route.
In a nutshell : Spouse visa is where you are already married and your wife applies for a visa to settle with you, a Brit, in the UK. Fiance visa is where your fiance applies for a visa to enable her to enter the UK with a view to marrying you in the UK, within 6 months of entry, with a further view to settling with you, a Brit, in the UK. .
The biggest difference between the two is that with a spouse visa your wife can start work immediately on entering the UK, after she has applied and got the NI number of course. With the Fiancé visa she would have to wait until the first FLR before she can apply for a NI number.
right so its a fiancé visa we need, is it still called a fiancé visa ? sorry for asking so many questions
now im divorced from my first pinay wife I can only marry my gf in the uk now so its a fiancé visa we need then,
hi there, i just want to share my application. As i filled up the form in the in the UKVI site for the appointment it called Marriage Settlement Visa. And when it approved the visa attached in my passport is "Visa Marriage/....(name of my fiance)",,,, A bit confusing right?, im looking for a "fiancee visa" in the choices but there isnt, instead a marriage settlement visa, so i just choose that since thats the nearest possible that fit in my application. just make sure your in a right track. That is also makes me Confused when i fill up the form. in my Entry at Heathrow Airport as they checked my passport they asked "are you getting married with ...(name of my fiancee),, are you sure with him?" Since i look nervous he just say "am i invited?" And he laugh "congratulations, ill wait for my invitation card" Thats crazy, he makes fun of me, maybe he observed im a bit tense and nervous when i gave my passport. Hehehehehe... So i realize, When people saw my passport they know my Entry is that im getting Married....
hi, my divorce was done on line here in the uk, I think under pi law im still married but maybe legally separated.
hi I did ask before but no one gave me a reply but me also cant find fiancé visa application but I think you are saying its called a MARRIAGE SETTLEMENT VISA ? TAMA ?
It is a marriage settlement visa if you are entering the UK to get married, here at BF we tend to call them Fiancé visas because its easier than keep typing marriage settlement visa, sorry for the confusion
Thanks, In the past I had 3 fiancé visas but that was about 7 years ago and I'm sure they were called fiancé in those days but things have changed
It was a lot easier back in 2005 and we did eventually marry but in PI now it's time to try again with my new gf
Well I had never been married and my gf at the time it was her first time here, we both wanted to make sure it was the right thing to do, the first visa she went home after 5 months coz she missed home,
