In early stages of relationship with my dream filipino girl and I'm planning next year with her agreement for her to pay short 2-4 weeks visit to UK to see how she like before committing to permanently moving here after our marriage etc...

Is there an option and how easy to get short stay 2-4 weeks UK Visa for her as partnership but not yet fiance or marriage VISA

Has anyone on this forum ever applied for this type of short stay VISA for their partner in the past and what is chance of success.

Do you think the one and only option available is long term fiance/marriage VISa?


thank you in advance
