Returning from Holiday Abroad 6 Weeks Before Spouse Visa Exp

Post by parvez » Tue Dec 15, 2009 3:02 pm

Hi All,

I am a British citizen. My wife is an Indian national. We got married in December 2007 in India and she was granted Entry Clearance as my spouse at the end of February 2008. She then entered the UK in the first week of March 2008.

My wife has passed her Life in the UK test and we have all the documents ready to apply for her ILR in January/February 2010. However, my wife travelled back to India to see her family in November 2009. I will be joining her later this week and we will be returning to the UK around mid-January 2010.

We plan to send off her ILR application at the end of January or early February 2010.

Please could somebody confirm whether her absence from the UK (approx 8 weeks) will be a problem when we apply for her ILR and whether she is likely to face any problems returning to the UK as there will be only approximately 6 weeks left on her spousa visa when we return around mid-January 2010.

Thanks :)
