Spouse visa - u apply on line in US and A.

You'll need:

To show u r free to marry if previously married

U have accommodation and can live together there

I can afford it

Not a marriage of convenience

US to UK visa are usually straightforward if she has no bad immigration history, couple of weeks if that.

Oh, and the £500 quid for the first visa, £750 for the second, £600 for citizenship if she wants it. Not cheap!

Have you looked at the British embassy in the US? All the information you need is there. Your wife needs to apply for a spouse visa before moving to the UK:
