Spousal Visa

(content republished by kind permission of Breytenbach & Co (UK)


Common Wealth citizens who wish to enter the UK for the purpose of marriage
may do so provided that the fiance(e) is settled in the UK, the marriage is not in
effect a marriage of convenience, and adequate financial means can be shown.

An applicant will be granted entry for a period of three months with a prohibition on
employment and should apply for a one year extension once the marriage has taken place.
The prohibition on employment will then be lifted.  At the end of that year, provided that the
couple are still living together, settlement will be granted.

Common Wealth citizens who are already married to persons settled in the UK, may enter this
country subject to the same conditions as above.  They will initially be granted permission to remain
here for one year with freedom to take employment and, thereafter, if still living together, will be allowed
to settle.
