99% It won't be, we still have a very limited border control on exit regardless of what this muppet government have been saying.

With regards to the subject matter, she is now an illegal immigrant, and can be arrested and deported at any time, and the Border Agency will be well aware of this, but they are unlikely to have the staff to do anything about it.

Getting a COA is not authorisation to marry here as it is basically an automated process, your visa is the official measure of the rules you are bound to while in this country, and as your fiancee has no valid visa, she has no right to marry here, and if she does, the marraige can/may be annulled by the authorities, as well as deported, and blacklisted from the UK.

We do not like law breakers on this forum, as it screws the system up and makes it harder for all those who abide by the law, and I rather gather your post has annoyed a lot of folk here.

The lawful way to do this is for your fiancee to go back the Philippines ASAP and hope her passport is not stamped on the way out. She should have asked for a change of visa status from Student to Fiancee when she had a valid visa.

As soon as she arrives back in the Phil, put the visa application in straight away, and she'll be back in the uk in 1-3 months...LEGALLY.
