British Citizen getting married in Delhi - spouse visa

Post by vivid_guy_007 » Sat Apr 01, 2017 11:13 am

Hi

Thanks everyone for helping me with my past visa applications. This website has been immensely useful for me and for many others to navigate the complex and time consuming visa application process. I am a natrualized British citizen and getting married to an Indian girl in Delhi in first week of May. I would apply for her visa in New Delhi. I have already started the visa application process for my would be wife, such as, document collection, appointments, etc. I have a few questions regarding the application and your expert guidance would be greatly appreciated:

1) The application form asks multiple times - if she is travelling alone/or with me?
Since visa can take upto 30 days so I am leaving India before her and she plan to travel alone once she gets visa. Does that have any bearing or implications in terms of visa acceptance decision.

2) It also asks "How long do I intend to stay?".
Shall we say 3 years?

3) "Does your spouse / partner currently live with you?"
Since we will be just married then, what should be the most appropriate answer for this. Please advise

4) In the sponsor section, there is a question: "Where is your sponsor now?"
At that time I will be in India with her. So is it asking my current location or in general asking about where I live. Please advise.

5) Also, I don't know why it says following message:
"If your application is successful, your passport/travel document will contain a 30 day visa to allow travel to the UK. You will also be sent a BRP Decision Letter with instructions on collecting your BRP after your arrival in the UK."
I thought visa is granted for 3 years and not 30 days?

6) I am making application at New Delhi. It asks me to pay IHS and visa fees in INR. Is it possible to pay in GBP.

Please advise.

Thanks a lot!
Abhi

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
