Sorridstroker Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Hi. We are just about to start getting a visa for my wife who is Thai, I am English. I am wondering if you can apply for a spouse visa within the UK while my wife was on a Tourist visa? This would be far easier for us rather than applying from Thailand. Thank you for your answers.

coolhandjoe Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 NO Chance. Been there , done that. She must apply from Thailand for settlement 2 yr visa. Pain in the bum but hey that's life sometimes. Prepare yourself for the expense and wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7by7 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 As said, no; visit visas cannot be converted to settlement in the UK. If she wants to settle, why apply for a visit visa? Apply for the visa appropriate to her intentions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
