when partner dies

Hi

My dad died recently in Pakistan, leaving her new wife (my stepmother, Pakistani national) alone in Pakistan. She has a Spouse Visa but has yet to travel to UK. He has never been to UK before. Now that my dad, her husband and her sponsor has died, is she still entitled to travel to UK on her existing Spouse Visa? Bearing in mind that she has no-one to support her in UK since her husband has died.


Regards

She would have qualified under E-BPILR if she was in the UK, and was last granted leave to enter as the spouse or partner of a settled person, but as she has never entered, i don't believe this option is open.

Would immigration control stop her at the airport if she decides decides to book a flight and travel? Or do I need to contact an immigration control officer? What do I need to do to make sure she doesn't get entry to UK?

If the Immigration Officer knew that her circumstances and purpose has changed, then she may be refused entry.

How do I make sure that immigration officer is aware that my stepmother's husband has died and she is not entitled to enter UK?

Hi

I've been informed my stepmother has entry clearance Spouse visa. What does that mean? Can she still travel even though her husband is deceased.

Thanks

I thought you wanted her to come to the UK. Now its seems to me that your motive is the opposite.

Why are you eager for her to be refused entry into the UK.

Leave her alone

She has nothing to do with u.

Remember: what goes around comes around.

There is a valid point here. The step-daughter has said that she isn't in a position to support her financially. In which case who will?
She won't be able to claim Public Funds. Why would she want to settle here now that her new husband has passed away and apart from the step-daughter she doesn't appear to have any family here. If I was in the step-daughter's position to be honest, I would be concerned too. If the step-mother is permitted to enter and settle, the daughter-in-law may feel duty bound to support her and is probably someone she has never even met!

Thanks for the information. I really appreciate all the information I'm getting from you.

I sent an email to home office informing them of changes in circumstances. I also said that her visa no longer meets any of the original conditions of spouse visa and therefore her visa should be revoked.

Also I said that I would not be supporting her by any means.

My stepmother's behaviour is totally foul towards us siblings. All of us are older than her.

I wish my dad did not get married.

I don't see anything valid in regards to this OP opening this thread.

He/she seem to have a vindictive motive. My only regret is having contributed.

You were not the sponsor of her visa, neither did you make an undertaking, why her coming to the UK is of concern to you, is simply beyond me.

If you don't want her in your home, there is nothing in law, that required you to accommodate her.

If you father decided to fall in love with someone significantly older than you, i see nothing wrong with that, provided your dad is happy.

If she brought happiness to your dad before her died, you should be happy she did, rather than this determination to destroy her, which you are embarking on.

I may be wrong by miles, but my instinct says this is about inheritance/post death property/estate distribution. So in the name of visa reasons there maybe attempt to keep the father's new wife away physically so she can not claim on her late husband's estate (in the UK)!

Such a shame if the demised soul hasn't made written will.

Thanks for replies.

I can only disclose limited personal information as I'm sure you would understand.

My dad did not spend good time with her. He spent couple of months in hospital and she was not on his bedside even though she was living close to the hospital. We had to fly over to look after our dad. He was admitted to private hospital and we paid tens of thousands of pounds in hospital fees. She didn't pay a penny.

She has been using foul language and her brother went physical with my brother.

There's no reason why after all that we should support her in anyway.

As for inheritance, the estate is hers and she can claim it while she is in Pakistan legally .
