Fiance Visa Rules

[A_flyer]

Sorry, but I don't think I made myself clear. I'm not suggesting fraud. I don't leave in the Philippines, I'm a resident in Bermuda and have been for 18 months. Bermuda has no UK Embassy, the relevant embassy for Bermuda as stated in the UK Embassy website is the UK embassy in New York. I am currently a fiance, why is applying for a fiance visa fraud?

Yes you were not clear enough as you do not explain your real situation for us to answer.

A case of visa fraud is to request/use a fiance visa if you are already married and that's what you were suggesting.

Remember also that a Fiancé visa is one entry only, so you can use it once only to enter UK (it's just to let you enter to marry there). If you go out of the country, you can't use it anymore.

For your tourist visas (both UK one and Schengen one) verify first if they are single entry or multiple entry, and not expired (IE a Schengen tourist visa is only for short stay up to 3 months) before willing to use them.

For your case, you should be able (if the Priest agree) to do a blessing in the Philippines if nothing is recorded there to avoid any problem in requesting from the UK Embassy a Fiance visa to enter UK and marry there later.
Remember that Embassies do verifications in the Philippines to check the documents you submit.

i guess all things are being cleared in said requirements in applying for settlement visa...doesnt matter your situation as long as you provide the neccessary documents either he visit/marry you in the philippines you are legally to marry each other...thats it...just provide the proper documents and send the application to british embassy...

Are you sure about this?

I have just been looking on the British Embassy in NYC and it states on the Fiance visa section "Entry clearance when issued is valid for a 6 month period (and you must marry within this period) and good for multiple entry."

I do appreciate your help, but you really shouldn't state things as fact unless you are sure...it can cause unnecessary stress.
