An advice please for a friend.

Post by Manchester171 » Sat Jun 13, 2015 10:56 am

My friend non EU came to England in May 2009 to marry her EU boyfriend while she was on marriage visitor visa as she was told that time by the visa centre in her country that Fiancee visa was only for British citizens, so she was offered a marriage visitor and got married in UK with no problem. She phoned the HO and asked if she had to leave UK as she was on visit visa, she was told she became a family member of EU and didn't need to leave and re-enter again but to apply for Residence Card. She applied and got it on July 2009. She also applied for PR and got dated 12 August 14. She wants to apply for naturalization in August and after the new rules of the good character conditions, she is afraid she will be rejected for breaching immigration rules while she was just following what she was told by the authorities. As I want to assure her I said to share her issue here for more opinions.

From the information you've posted, she hasn't breached Immigration Rules.

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.
