marriage settlement visa appeal tribunal

[joebloggs]

i see, 2 months is not very long but nothing to stop people in the uk getting married in a shorter period, how many times had you met ?

We had met on three separate visits to Israel by myself , between May and June 2010. To date I have made seven visits to Israel to see my fiancee. Now after waiting five months for an appeal tribunal date we are intent on abandoning the appeal process as my fiancee might have to return home to the Philippines beacause her working visa in Israel is uncertain and expires in February 2011. Failure to obtain a new working visa in Israel would invalidate the appeal. In any case the procesing time for a UK fiancee visa is up to three months once the appeal is upheld which could take us to Summer 20111. We are not prepared to wait this long anf hope that by marrying in The Philippines and applying for a UK spouse visa the whole process will be faster. What do you think Joe?
