Fiancé visa and Civil Partnerships for Family Visa UK
The purpose of the fiancée visa is to get married in the UK. It needs to be distinguished from marriage visitor visa.
Marriage visitor visa is only relevant to you if you wish to get married in the UK, but do not intend to remain and live in the UK.
Fiancée visa allows to get married in the UK and continue to live in the UK. Once your fiancée visa issued, you will be allowed to get married in the UK.
It is best to apply when you have the evidence of the wedding venue booked.
Once you get married and receive your marriage certificate, the overseas spouse is eligible to apply for spouse visa.
UK law recognises same sex marriage. Same sex marriage is called a civil partnership.
Same UK immigration rules apply for couples intending to form a civil partnership.
If you are looking to enter into a marriage in the UK or form a civil partnership in the UK, fiancé visa is right family visa in the UK.
Spouse Visa for Family Visa UK
UK spouse visa not only recognise married couples or couples in a civil partnership, but also the couples that can demonstrate that you have been living together for the last 2 years.
The 2-year living together requirement means that the non-British citizen applying for the UK spouse visa has been living legally in the UK under a different visa. Your status must not expire at the time you apply.
Your initial spouse visa will be issued for the initial period of 33 months. You will need to renew your spouse visa before it expires.
You will renew your UK spouse visa for another 2.5 years. You will be eligible to apply for your indefinite leave to remain after 5 years of legal residence in the UK. The time spent in the UK as a fiancé is excluded from this calculation.
The most important pieces of evidence for UK spouse visa application to be successful are: genuine relationship, meeting the financial and language requirements. There are additional requirements.
UK spouse visa recognises long-term relationship of over 2 years and a genuine marriage or a civil partnership. Therefore, it is the right family visa in the UK to apply if you meet these requirements.
Dependent Child Visa for Family Visa UK
Dependent child visa is for the parents who have a British child, but relationship with the partner or the parent has broken down.
You should only consider applying for the dependent child visa if your relationship has permanently broken down with the parent of the child.
In all circumstances, you should consider applying for the spouse visa first.
Dependent child visa as a family visa in the UK is suitable only when you want to keep your relationship with your child and remain present in their life.
Dependent Parent Visa for Family Visa UK
Dependent parent visa has the least successful application rate within all family visa applications in the UK.
If you are a British citizen and you are considering bringing your aged parent from overseas, most of the time it will be highly unlikely to do so successfully.
Therefore, at Family Office in London, we do not process dependent parent visa applications.
