I have property and assets in the UK and I'd like to will everything to my Thai wife so, when I croak it, there won't be loads of IHT to pay. My Thai wife doesn't have a British passport or connections in the UK. will my assets automatically pass to her as a non British citizen or do I need to do mountains of paper work to prevent UK government taking even more money. Has Anyone else dealt with this situation or can recommend a lawyer experienced in this field. Cheers.

Hi, Planning to visit my mum for 3 weeks who is 85 in UK next year. She wants to see her grand daughter before kicking the proverbial bucket. I wish to take my daughter (3 years old) with my Thai Gf. Obviously we're Not married. Daughter has my surname though. GF has good job with oil company so possible to get 6 month tourist visa ? I'm thinking 6 month tourist visa because I'm actually still married /separated and will be taking my adult daughter with us to the UK from that marriage (she has dual passports/nationality). Fiance visa I would think is kind of a no no being still legally married. A touch Complicated, but those with abilities of shedding light would be much appreciated. Cheers
