I found this confusing...but I believe it's the second marriage which won't be recognised. The third appears to be legal.seagul wrote:I think you have been perfectly answered by seniors already. Until getting decree absolute you are still considered married so if you married before getting decree absolute then your most recent marriage (3rd) won't be legally recognized.
Casa, Many thanks again for your response.Casa wrote:I found this confusing...but I believe it's the second marriage which won't be recognised.

So, if the 2nd marriage is not valid and it's not recognised in the UK law, by putting the date I entered this marriage, clearly the immigration officer will realise that I have entered the 2nd marriage before the 1st was finalised. Would this cause any issue to me or on the application??? I will provide the decree absulote for both my 1st & 2nd marriage.Casa wrote:To be honest, I'm undecided.
Many thanks CASA again for your response.Casa wrote:IMHO it shouldn't, as it doesn't affect the decision on this application.
CASA, thanks for your effort in helping me out.Casa wrote:Too complex for me to comment.
Anyone able to help guys!!!5am1224 wrote:CASA, thanks for your effort in helping me out.Casa wrote:Too complex for me to comment.
As you have mentioned previously that it won't matter if I have entered the 2nd marriage before my 1st was finalised or not and I won't be facing any prescription from the British Authorities when it comes to their attention as the 2nd marriage took place in a country that allows men to have more than one wife at once and taking into account that the 2nd marriage is already ended by court besides I have entered my 3rd marriage after both the 1st&2nd marriages were dissolved, do you think that the case worker will be affected by the 2nd marriage when making the decision on my 3rd wife's application!
I have been betrayed and badly treated by my 2nd ex and her family, all they wanted is to get to Britain to settle and put me into trouble and make my life miserable.
Please guys any response will be highly appropriated.
Still need your help guys.5am1224 wrote:CASA, thanks for your effort in helping me out.Casa wrote:Too complex for me to comment.

Seagul, thanks for your response.seagul wrote:In a lot of countries the law allows more than 1+ wives if you can physically & financially afford that. I know few people who has wife in UK and other wife & kids in their homeland but I haven't seen them to apply their spouse visa rather they prefer to visit them personally so no experience. But UKBA only allows one wife at one time.
Anyone else could help please!!!5am1224 wrote:Seagul, thanks for your response.seagul wrote:In a lot of countries the law allows more than 1+ wives if you can physically & financially afford that.

I only have one wife so I should be ok then.
Has anyone of those people registered the kids in the UK even though they have wife in Britain! And if they have registered the kids, did they enculd their homeland marriage certificate? I mean, if the British authority find out that they have a 2nd wife, does this cause any issues with the UK law?
Many thanks in advance.
Such cases exist very seldom but the few ones I seen they don't care or apply spouse visa for the wife in their homeland neither bring children here rather themselves very frequently visit them. On the other hand their 2nd wife in UK usually already settled in uk who don't need visa, that's how people wanting 1+ wife work out. But if spouse is subject to immigration control either inside/outside of uk willing to come/remain in uk then has to fulfil the uk's foremost requirement which is one wife per time and for next wife the previous relationship must be ended through decree absolute.5am1224 wrote:Anyone else could help please!!!5am1224 wrote:Seagul, thanks for your response.seagul wrote:In a lot of countries the law allows more than 1+ wives if you can physically & financially afford that.
