makavelli Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Hi everyone, In a few months I will be marrying my thai g/f who has been with me in the Uk for the last 3 months, we have been together for over a year and a half now and we love each other very dearly. I applied for a finacee visa and she was granted it, my question is when we get married what things change, i.e can we go away on holiday somewhere other that thailand? can she work? etc etc. Thanks again people, take care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the scouser Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Once you marry, your g/f should apply to the Home Office for permission to remain in the UK as your wife. This costs, I think, £150.00. You should supply the marriage certificate, and evidence of your ability to maintain and accommodate her. Under no circumstances should you leave the UK before getting the extension stamped in your wife-to-be's passport as her current fiancée visa is only good for one entry. Consequently, should she leave the UK she would require another settlement visa to enable her to return. The extension will allow your g/f to remain in the UK for 2 years and she can come and go as she wishes without having to get another UK visa. If then you want to travel to other countries then she will have to obtain a visa for those countries as required. Scouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the scouser Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 PS. Once you are married and she has the extension from the Home Office your g/f can legitimately work. Scouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
