No applicants still need the Coa unless they're getting married in the church of england.omeo_21 wrote:Hi everyone,
i just read an article in the newspaper that was basically saying many people were marrying eastern european nationals to gain the right to stay in the UK and they were just going to registry offices and getting married without the COA because of a ruling in 2008.
so does that mean u dont need a COA anyomore, has it effectively been stopped, if someone is here no matter if its on a tourist visa, you can just get married and if u can prove its genuine then you'll be ok?? IS is that easy lol so whats the need of these marriage settlement visa's??
I guess they approved the Certificates of approval simply because they don't give status so why would it matter if such people were allowed to marry?omeo_21 wrote:If they still need the COA how where people who didn't even speak the same language like they were saying in the article receive the COA from the home office, doesn't seem to make sense? and if the courts said it was against human rights to have to prove a marriage then why has the home office not removed the COA??
they have no legal status in the UK but they still are able to remain in the UK, they are not forced to remove, but im sure the home office would make it very difficult to get any sort of legal status
Are you sure that's love? Or is that just finding someone hot? Two mutes can communicate in sign language!inwarsaw wrote:No you don't need to speak a common language to fall in love, in fact you can fall in love even without talking for example two mutes falling in love or for example I fall in love almost everyday on the underground with different women who I never happen to speak with but......for getting married, you need to speak a common language.
But people haven't been able to switch from visitor status to spousal visa since 2003, so COAs are useless!The COA, as far as I understand was introduced to stop illegal residents from getting married because once married, they start singing about family ties, family union, human rights bla bla bla and it becomes almost impossible to remove them.
How very true. Also, it used to generate a lot of money back when it cost like £300 to apply. [/quote]No surprise it pays back when the UKBA guys come to the wedding uninvited.
If you've been here legally and are willing to wait four weeks to get the approval then you should get a COA. COA is not something difficult to obtain that requires much proof. If you have a legal status here then ukba will obviously not ruin your wedding and come to arrest you. Also it's free. So if you're both already here it's probably cheaper and easier to get the COA.salop22 wrote:This sham things really pissing me of ive been with my gf from hungary for four yrs here in the uk legally.. and we looking to get married soon i might as well go to her home country and get married .. it will be easier what do u guys sujest!!!??????
There is no requirement where you have to be living together. Like I said, it's just permission to marry. The deciscion should be based on how much money you want to spend and where you want the location of your wedding to be. There is no "best" it's just a preference. Keep in mind that if you have a big wedding, it will be very costly in the uk. I personally like sunshine and beaches so I had mine in the caribbean.salop22 wrote:yeh im her legally doing my degree at the moment but me and my gf we dont live together she lives with her dad..so u guys sujest go back to her home country or do it here ?? which is best??
Of course its not love, I was just being a bit sarcastic.boulevardofbrokendreams wrote:

By the way, sign language is also a language
Nothing happens to your student visa, you will still hold your student visa status. I got married while on a student visa and I'm still studying. I never switched to FLR(M) b/c I want to move back to the states when I'm finished. Will you go back to the caribbean with your wife after your studies or are you planning to make uk your new home? If the latter, then if you're over 21 you should probably switch to flr(m). You will still be allowed to study.salop22 wrote:i see ..lol i was hinking of the caribbean myself thats where im from but my gf shes very traditional so i agreed to do it in her country when im off school term and come back to the uk and continue my studies...whats going to happen to my student visa??
