I am here in the UK already as I have been issued my ENTRY CLEARANCE to enter the UK by the Manila Embassy. So I got married here in the UK a few days ago as I only have 6 months to get married to adjust my status to a SPOUSAL VISA. We submitted the applicaiton to UK BORDER IMMIGRATION OFFICE already in SCOTLAND. How long will it take for the SPOUSAL VISA to be issued so I can have my RIGHT TO WORK here in the UK and then get my NI number for employment.

Thank you......

Hello Kimmi

I am living in West Sussex but we sent our papers to HOme Office in Scotland. Uk Border Immigration yata yun by post. Are you a flip? pinuy? Tagalog ? I am from Cebu...

It takes that long for the visa to get processed? Do I have to undergo medical tests to so I can register sa health insurance for NHS? wHAT Tests? Can I process NI number with jobcentre now?

THis is really a long wait and I am doing nothing.....

Have you got msn ym?

hello Nizza,

We feel the same thing doing nothing. I'm from Cebu too but I'm chinese.

I am living in Gillingham,Kent. How long have you been here in UK? As for me I just arrived last June 16 and I'm getting married this 28 of Aug and my visa will be expired in November. So I guess its my turn to apply for spousal visa too after marriage. I cant believe the visa fee for spousal is very expensive. have you reported your marriage to the phil embassy?

I have ym if you want to chat.

hello and welcome as kimmi said normally takes that time. When i had it last year took me 3 weeks to get my flr.

You can register to ur hubbys gp if u want it now. No need to undergo any medical test.

you cant process ur ni yet, u need to wait for ur passport coz they will require it from u when u apply for NI number.

By the way im from cebu too..

all the best:)

hi Niza,

yes I am a filipina also..since u submit ur application it will take roughly around 3 to 4 weeks..about registering in NHS or in GP u can go to them directly together with ur husband and tell them that ur married already and u wanted to be registered, and if u are registered already they will give u a sched for a Smear Test but still it depends on ur GP..

about the National Insurance Number, u can only apply if uve got ur passport back with u and ur marriage cert. because it is one of the requirements u need there and any docs that uve applied for work but since u just submitted ur application u still have to wait..

Goodluck and God bless..:)Hope to chat with u soon..:xxgrinning--00xx3:
