Which Visa Do We Require

[azravico]

Hi Everyone... Im going round in circles trying to find which visa We need, I am in the process of Marrying my Thai GF and would ideally like to bring her to the UK after we get married for a visit / holiday and meet my family, She would also like to find some work / part time work while we are in the UK as I will be working a lot of the time, she has her own business in Thailand but can leave for 3 to 6 months with out too much of a problem, I dont believe we need a settlement visa as we dont plan on staying in the UK Long term but cannot find out if she would be able to look for work if we asked for a visit family visa, we will be staying with family while in the UK and my family will help sponsor / support her while we are in UK. Thanks in advance to anyone who can steer me in the right direction. Mike

hi, she will not be able to work , well legally on a visit visa, no recourse to public funds either, i think you would need to start the whole process of a settlement visa, look on this board for settlement visa waiting times, its a joke, if and when she gets a visa, she will need to then apply for a national insurance number.

This is the third thread you have asked this question in.

As said to you here:-

She should apply for the visa applicable to her intentions. If her intention is to just visit for 3 months then she should apply for a visit visa.

But:-

If she comes as a visitor she cannot work.

The maximum she can spend in the UK as a visitor at any one time is 6 months.

To work in the UK she would need either a work permit or a spouse visa.

Please do not post the same question in multiple threads; it wont get you any more responses!
