spouse visa migrant child

Post by S patel 1977 » Fri Jul 08, 2016 7:55 pm

Hi everyone,

Please could anyone advise.

if my son was to be treated as a migrant child, even though he is British by descent how would this affect the spouse visa application and his rights in the UK? i don't mind paying the £600 NhS surcharge and i can meet the 22,400 if it means that i can apply for the spouse visa asap, rather than waiting around for a ROA or a British passport to process. surely once my wife and son are here i can then apply for those things later on.

Are there any other negatives that im not aware of if my son was to be treated as migrant child rather than a British cit.

Thank you all in advance.

Are you aware you would also have to pay an additional visa fee of £1195?

Moreover, if they are aware that he is British, then they cannot treat him as a foreign migrant.

I have assumed that they are properly trained, else anything may be possible.
