All the same rules and information/links apply to a fiance visa.

Yes he has met her in person but no photos together and no ceremony has taken place.

above links are for spouse visa not fiance visa?

A fiance visa would not be applicable if they have had a 'ceremony' to marry.

What evidence of relationship will he submit??

The rules are not flexible on this, for a fiance visa or a spouse visa. If there is no documentary evidence, the visa will be refused.

The rules and requirements are the same for both visas. The only difference is that a fiance visa is valid for 6 months and no IHS is payable and he would have to provide evidence of what preparation for a wedding have been made etc, other than that ALL the other requirements are exactly the same as a spouse visa, including the cost of the visa.

The first link clearly states 'fiance or proposed civil partner'.

Sorry what is IHS?

Sorry what is IHS?

Immigration Health Surcharge. £600 payable for a spouse visa on top of the visa fee.

Does he has to pay IHS when he is applying for a spouse visa in UK?

Does he has to pay IHS when he is applying for a spouse visa in UK?

Yes, £500 IHS plus £1033 visa fee for a postal application on FLR(M).

IHS is set to double in cost later this year.

The first link I have already quoted contains all the information!! Was there something more specific you were looking for??

[rashismart2000]

As I said used to be pdf file contains all information given to case worker. I found them useful and easy to follow.

The VAF4A form is online only so there is no longer a PDF version.

Appendix 2 is a paper form, which is the form for all the financial information.
