ABOUT THIS SERVICE

UK fiancé visa applications

A UK fiancé visa is for a person who intends to come to the UK to marry or enter into a civil partnership with a British citizen or settled partner and then apply to remain in the UK under the family route.

The visa is normally granted for six months. The applicant cannot usually work during this period. After the marriage or civil partnership has taken place, the applicant must make a further application for permission to stay as a partner before the fiancé visa expires.

A fiancé visa is different from a Marriage Visitor visa. A Marriage Visitor visa is intended for a person who will marry or enter into a civil partnership in the UK and then leave the UK. It does not provide a route to switch into a spouse or partner visa from inside the UK.

  • Relationship: the relationship must be genuine and subsisting.
  • Intention to marry: there must be credible evidence of plans to marry or form a civil partnership in the UK.
  • Financial requirement: the applicable partner-route financial requirement must be met unless an exemption applies.
  • Accommodation: suitable accommodation must be available without prohibited reliance on public funds.
  • Future intention: the couple must intend to live together permanently in the UK after marriage.

Planning to marry in the UK and live here together?

We can confirm whether the fiancé route is appropriate and prepare the application, relationship evidence and financial documents.

I was fortunate to have an extremely knowledgeable professional handle my wife’s and my own immigration matters. My lawyer made the application process so easy right from the start to the end where we received a successful outcome. I am sincerely grateful for their ownership of our applications. My lawyer was very passionate and dedicated to our case whilst overseeing our immigration matters.

As a top UK immigration law firm, our marriage and fiancee visa lawyers will advise on partners who wish to join their sponsors in the UK. This page provides information on Fiancee Visas and Marriage Visas if you are applying from within the UK.

Our immigration lawyers have over 16 years of experience in dealing with fiancee visa applications made from outside the United Kingdom, so choosing a lawyer from Westkin Associates means choosing the right person to help you obtain your fiancee visa.
