Switching from tourist visa to fiance visa

Post by richardbm » Wed Aug 19, 2020 9:08 pm

Hi,

My partner is staying with me on a tourist visa in the UK.
Her visa is due to expire at the end of September.
The flight has been cancelled and there is no flight back until October.

Is it possible to switch from a tourist visa to a fiance visa from within the UK?

Thank you.

Most likely not.
Try other indirect/alternative routes which definitely be available.

A fiance visa can only be applied for from outside the UK.

Have you again registered a third username??? All 3 usernames posting from the same IP address and all have the same identical identifying feature in the email addresses!! All three usernames asking about you brining your partner on a fiance visa.

Multiple usernames are not permitted on the forum as has already been stated in one of your other topics already with a link to the forum rule.

I suggest you decide which username you wish to keep using otherwise all 3 usernames and your IP address will be banned from the forum.
