married first as a non British and now a British citizen

Hi everyone

When i married my wife it was under a non-EU nationality.

Now i wish to apply for a uk spouse visa as we both live abroad so that we may settle in the UK.

MY question is this:

how do we register the non-UK marriage in the UK?

Kind Regards,

Travel - UK Passport Application is in Process

You are required to send any current (foreign) passport with the British passport application. Do you mean you didn't send one? you are allowed to send a full colour photocopy with every single page included initially. But they will ask for the original at a later stage hence it is better to send ...

Update

Hi everyone

I noticed on my bank statement that the passport office has debited the authorized amount for a first UK passport.

Obviously this means that my application will go ahead for processing which is a start.

Now i wonder what the next step is?

Anyone?

Regards,

Jehad

I think I have a problem

I think I have a problem. On the checklist it says that they want copies on my parents immigration status ie in the form of old passports. Sadly we don't have these documents anymore. Evidence of one of your parents’ immigration status in the UK at the time of your birth their passport at the time o ...

Ok thank you for the supportive information.

For the counter signature I will ask one of my British colleges if he or she is willing to sign.

But what about the current address? I have never lived in the UK and will they ask for my current citizenship passport ?

Regards

Ok but I'm not living in the UK I have lived abroad all my life in Bahrain. Can the British embassy here help. Or is it strictly online ie printing the forms with my original birth certificate and send it off and wait?

I will need an interview since this is my first time to apply ?

Kind regards

Born in the UK before 1983? Neither parents British

I was wondering if someone here can advise me. I was born in the UK in 1978. My father was a foreign student and was married to my mother at the time also a foreigner. From what I've read anyone born in the UK before 1983 and regardless of his/her parents nationality/status is automatically British ...
