First off... I am a South African and live with my husband in the UK on a spouse visa. When I wanted to get married to him in the UK, I had to apply for a visa which allowed me to go to the UK to get married to him. For this I needed R12000,00 or the equivalent to £1000.00 roughly so you can show them that you can support yourself for the first three months. I am not allowed to claim benefits, so think before having a child or anything when you do get to the UK. Personally, see how the relationship goes. I didn't marry so that I can get into the UK. I married to be with someone I love. But we have had trouble in our marriage and it seems to be breaking down, so in my case all that we will do is not apply for indefinite leave to remain and I will leave this coming August 2009 to go back to South Africa.
As far as application processes go, it takes up to 2 months or more for visas to go through to get to the UK. Never plan ahead since you will be disappointed and will end up losing money in the end. At the immigration control when you enter UK they will question you and it can take up to three hours before you get questioned, so do not make any immediate travel plans.
Although the UK government states that visas are done within a certain time frame, it rarely happens.Other factors need to be considered like your own country for example. It may be easy for the british government to get things sorted, but your own country could take days, weeks or months extra to complete the documentation.Sarah 22 Feb 2009, 05:03 - Verstoß melden
