Hi All
Maristela is now in the process of completing the Fiancee Visa Application however we have hit a couple of problem with the questions. I was hoping other forum members might be able to give us guidance.
The first problem question 8.4 where they ask about what arrangements have been made for notification of the marriage. Because Maristela will need to obtain a Certificate of Approval we cannot comply with the requirements to register for the marriage until she has a valid fiancee visa and is physically in the country. Can anyone explain how we get out of that conundrum? Following from this 8.8 and 8.9 cannot be completed because until she is her and we notified the intention to marry obviously we cannot make the marriage arrangements!!!!!!! :doh
The second problem which is baffling us are the initial questions on the form. For example the travel date, which we cannot book until the visa application is approved. They then ask the date Maristela intends to leave the UK. However, she will not be leaving once we are married we will apply for FLR and eventually ILR. We are only intending therefore to buy a one way ticket. So do we just leave these questions unanswered or what do we put there?
I also note from reading the forums that it is suggested that I provide evidence of supporting Maristela while she is in the Philippines. However, she does not need my financial support there as she is supported by her family. She has never asked for any money from me. Obviously, once she comes to the UK I will be supporting her from my earnings and pension until she gets an FLR and employment. Is the lack of financial support going to go against the application. It seems perverse if that is the case.
Sorry for so many questions. It is probable that they have been answered elsewhere but I haven't been able to find the answers.
Thanks for any help that you can give in advance.
