[shamrock123456]

i read this statement on the uk visas webswite on the entry clearance guidance for spousal visas i wonder if anyone from here can help me understand more clearly what it exactly means as some of the words are to formal for me..

13.13 - Intention to live together; residence after arrival in the UK
Intention to live permanently with the other means an intention to live together, evidenced by a clear commitment from both parties that they will live together permanently in the UK immediately following the outcome of the application in question or as soon as circumstances permit thereafter.

In assessing this part of the Rules it will be useful, if possible, to have the views of both parties tested by the ECO. You should try to assess what the basic object of the marriage/civil partnership is (or will be). Where both partners are clearly committed to stay together irrespective of whether they live in the UK or not, the intention to live together will be shown. However, if it is clear that the sponsor will not leave the UK to live with the applicant elsewhere should the application for entry clearance be refused, you will need to examine the reasons for this and how this bears on the relationship between the parties. In a case considered in the High Court in November 1996 Keen J held that "The concept of intention is no doubt a complex one, but it appears to me that one can indeed have a genuine intention, notwithstanding that the carrying out of that intention is dependent on, or could be frustrated by, some extraneous event." He went on to conclude that the requirement of the Rules relating to the intention of the parties to the marriage could be met where the British Citizen (or legally resident foreign national) spouse insisted on remaining in the United Kingdom. In other words, a conditional intention to live together could be sufficient to meet the requirements of sub-paragraph (iv).

Residence after arrival in the United Kingdom
A couple should have discussed and come to an understanding about where they are going to live, if only in the short term. If they say that the subject has not been discussed, you should try to find out why this is so.

The timing and nature of a decision regarding residence, who took the initiative and the way in which the decision was reached may be important factors in assessing whether or not the couple intend to live together permanently.

If the marriage/civil partnership is/was conditional upon the applicant securing admission to the United Kingdom, you should establish who made the condition and why. You should also ask whether, if the application for entry clearance is unsuccessful, the sponsor will live with the applicant in his/her present country of residence (or elsewhere).
