Hey All,

I wonder some one can advise me here please.

I have an appointment with NCS today, I filled my AN form with martial status married but there was a case going on for separation with my partner since April.

I am applying on five years basis not as spouse.

However yesterday I received a divorce issued letter from my partner, letter was issued in July from her I have not signed it yet and will be responding to this letter next week through my solicitor.

My question. What do I need to do know. do I need to update home office?

Please advise.

Thanks
Shareef

If you are applying on your own 5 year basis and not as spouse, then it will not have any bearing on your application. Doesn't matter if it states married or divorced.

You have only received divorce issue letter and you have not signed, so technically you are not divorced yet. If you have decree absolute then you are divorced.

You can mention in extra info section that "on going divorce" if NCS has not sent your application or you can write a letter to HO stating this.
