switching from Tier 4 to spousal visa

Post by guyver123 » Sun Jul 27, 2014 7:45 pm

hey all

i'm a postgraduate student completing my MA this september. my Tier 4 student visa runs out in November. my partner and i are considering marriage, but we're not sure how to go about it. is it possible to marry and apply for a spousal visa before my tier 4 visa runs out?

any advice would be much appreciated.

t :D

Yes it is. You can certainly marry here but make sure you meet all the requirements for the spouse visa, especially the minimum annual earnings level of £18,600. Any earnings you may have can be combined with your wife's. You would apply on form FLR(M)
