Visa Start date - Valid From date

Post by Ukgal123 » Mon Aug 13, 2018 2:37 pm

Hi all!

So my husband has his visa now and it’s valid from tomorrow 14th August!

To cut a long story short we already booked his flight for tonight 13th August and arriving in London at 3am on 14th August.

His start date is tomorrow.. but we are just wondering if he can still travel tonight as technically he will reach the UK at 3am on 14th August..

If anyone sees this in time please reply :D

Also he’s travelling from Morocco to the UK

It should be ok provided the airline allows him to board.

Hey I'm sorry I can't answer your question but I've been trying to find someone who has applied for the UK spouse visa from north africa, just because I can't find any timelines on here for the countries there. My husband applied from tunisia and I just wanted an idea of how long they are taking? Could you please provide your timeline?
Thank you x

Hi! I know this was one year ago but I’m wondering..

My husband and I submitted our spouse settlement application the end of April (marked as received at UKVI this week)..

I’m thinking of changing jobs for better opportunities and was wondering if I should send in a new job contract and if it matters or not to change whilst waiting..

Please help :cry:

hi!

We applied in April 2018 with priority and just got the visa this month!

My husband and I will also be creating a YouTube channel soon with advice from our application.

I’ll post it later :)

Please do not post any YouTube links. It exposes your identity to the 152,550 registered members on the forum, many of whom are scammers and spammers.
