Home country visit for getting spouse visa

Post by tuhadda_fuffar » Sat Sep 05, 2009 5:50 pm

Hi guys,

One of my friends does not have any UK visa and he came to this country by some agent. He has a European girlfriend who is willing to marry him and live in UK. My friend has his passport with him (which does not have any visa)
Now he has some questions.

1. Can he stay in this country legally after marriage?
2. How he can get papers of this country?
3. Will he have to go to his home country to get visa, and if he has to, what kind of papper work does he need.
4. Can everything be done while staying in the UK?

Any other concerns and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Gesss...his in UK with a passport without any VISA ?

I have never heard of this kinda case b4, but anyway tell him to get ready cus this will be a longgggggggggggg ride. I personally doubt it will be possible.

Some guys here might find you a better answer and maybe a way out.

My 'concern' is that this application to stay in UK will reek of 'marriage of convenience' to the UKBA, and likely be refused!
He has no visa in his passport, and has a european girlfriend 'willing' to marry him and live in UK?
Best he goes back to his home country and get his documentation sorted before doing anything else.
Not looking good, I'm afraid. :roll:

Thanks all for your replies.


Yes Charles4u, he is in UK with a passport and does not have any UK visa, although he might have some sort of expired visa which brought him to Europe and from there he came to the UK with the help of an agent.

Yes Rozen...thats what i told him. But he said he will go back to home country after marriage and apply for EU family visa and come back to UK. It sounds too much to me. Please advice.

Yes, it's a obvious marriage of convenience.

Just tell your mate to go home, sort himself out, stop using dodgy 'agents', and do things in the right and proper way!
Better this, instead of hanging on in the UK by the skin of his teeth, with a visa-less passport, and trying to beat the system by marrying an EU national!
No further 'thoughts' are required/necessary! It's as simple as that! :roll:
