Thanx for your reply Casa . We've met in February 2009, last time I was granted a visitors visa to the UK in August 2010, and went to the UK from 31.08.10 till 21.09.10, then from 21.12.10 till 16.01.11. Then my bf/husband came to Estonia in March, then Finland in April and shortly after that I ...

The story is - we've been together for 2,5 years, got married in June 2011, throughout all that time we ...

If he is applying in person, than once he is in the visa center he should say that there are a couple of mistakes in his online application and he will be able to make changes in his printed application (he'd have to put signature next to the part where he made changes). I did it myself a couple of ...

If both of you are in the UK If you and your future husband, wife or civil partner are both in the UK but at least one of you is subject to immigration control, you will need to give notice to marry or register your civil partnership with a registrar at a 'designated office'.

I think it really depends on how quickly you can book your flight and get ready to leave the country. The spouse visa is issued for 27 months. The spouse then needs to complete two years in the UK before s/he applies for ILR however can apply 28 days before the two years. Some people may need a few ...

that is incorrect. If the applicant specifies a date they want to travel the eco will grant from that date as long as it is not more than three months from the date of decision. Sorry for offtopic, but as a person who's going to apply for the settlement visa soon, I'd like to hear - would you ...

Your wife stated in her settlement application that she wishes to travel to the UK on the 1st of October 2011, when she applied for the visa, however, it doesn't mean that she has to travel to the UK on this date. For instance, if it takes longer for the immigration officer to asses her application ...

I was very upset to see those changes-to-be-implemented and can't really see this new scheme to be working. The only positive thing I can think of is changes in requirements for the English language, which is really essential as people are going to live in the UK and need to integrate, get a job etc ...
