Hi,

This is going to be repeating so many others I'm sure, but................

I have a friend who has fallen in love over the internet (I know!) and is looking at trying to get a UK visa to take his beloved back to the UK as soon as possible after he visits in April.

I know he has to convince the UK Embassy Visa section that he has a genuine relationship. From personal experience, I think that it is almost guaranteed that a first application is rejected, unless there is very strong support, such as a reputable (as in known the the Embassy) personal reference for the young lady.

What are his chances of getting a quick visa, of any form?

Is it worth him using a 'specialist' company?

Thanks

Would she be applying for a visit visa or a settlement visa? Either way, it will be an uphill struggle when the relationship is in its infancy.

Scouse.
