Any tips will be appreciated.. Sorry for the length of message Thank you Regards ************** GOV.U...

What if we don't apply for a spouse visa... Wait for the outcome of her asylum application, is that an option? When she has her next stage asylum interview, will that convince them why she does not want to return to her home country? (Did not want to take the risk of failed spouse visa application f...

After going through the whole document @Cullinan had sent, I think the solicitor is right.. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/927259/family-life-_as-a-partner-or-parent_-private-life-and-exceptional-circs-v11ext.pdf Page 26- The applicant...

Thank you for the info @Cullinan The solicitor said even if she applied here and for any reason successful in getting a spouse visa it will be on 10 year route but if she went back and applied from Nepal she may be eligible for 5 year route. Is that how it is? My query is, is applying from UK after ...

Hi Just came back after meeting my fiancée's immigration solicitor, bit disappointed. We were due to get married on last Sunday, now postponed to Jan 17th due to Covid related issues. I was hoping to apply a spouse visa for her soon afterwards and visa for her children in Nepal later on. The solicit...

Thank you Do the dependant children have to have own passports at the time of application? Or simply giving out details such as name and date of birth be enough? The reason- it's looking a bit difficult to get Nepalese passportwithiut either parent physically present in the country. Those who have a...

Hi Looking for some advice on our forthcoming family visa application. I am a UK citizen of Indian origin , consultant surgeon in NHS. My fiancee is Nepali (currently an asylum seeker) We are getting married on December 20th (depending on lockdown rules after 2nd of course), no issues raised by home...

Hi everyone Decided to marry my Nepali girlfriend (now fiancee)who is an asylum seeker. Her solicitor says get the religious ceremony (Hindu) done first and then only apply at local council registry office. His theory is if home office investigates the marriage application and we are already married...

That's what she told me.. (she knows a few)

Thank you

So if HO gives permission will her asylum application go void? (And then she is expected to get a spouse visa?)

Is that a bad idea? (Heard a lot of asylum seekers are getting their application approved due to Covid crisis /backlog.. . Is that a better deal.for her?)

Regards

Harish

Hi Need some advice on marrying my asylum seeker girlfriend. She is Nepali origin. Asylum application 14 months ago. Not interviewed yet. I have been a UK citizen for 12 years. In her best interests, is it best to wait for decision on asylum application and then we get married? Or Marry her now and ...

Thank you. Only know her for 6 months now.

At the interview, is it best she tells them about me (if it comes up..quite likely?) Or not?
