touist visa is best option. Once in uk for longer your can complete FLR forms.

Welcome mike I'm a newbee too!!

this site is really good

WRONG, if she comes her on a tourist visa she can't apply for FLR, the tourist visa will be for aperiod of up to six months and at the end of that period she will have to go home. FLR (Further Leave to Remain) is for fiancee's. When they come here as a fiancee they get a six month visa to allow them to get married here in the UK. Once they have married then they have to apply for FLR to be able to stay here for up to two years when they then have to apply for ILR (Indefinite Leave to Remain).
