Spousal Visa question.

Post by bexgfch » Sun Apr 26, 2020 10:39 pm

Hi, sorry if this is in the wrong forum, i'm new on here.

So my brother got married to a girl from Nepal a year 2 years ago and she has been here in the UK on a spousal visa for a year. However, the marriage has since broken down as it was found out that she only married my brother for citizenship here. She has filed for an annulment and we're waiting for that to come through to apply for the decree nisi. Do we have to wait for the decree absolute to tell the home office about the marriage breakdown or do we have to tell them now? She does want to go back to Nepal after it all but we just want to ensure that she is in the Uk to make sure the annulment is finalised before she goes back. So can we wait to tell home office?

Thank you in advance.

No need to wait.

She is not physically required in the UK for divorce to be finalised either.

Thank you for your response. We're just a bit worried that if she goes back she won't sign the final papers etc. Whereas if she is here she would. What should we do?
