    Thanks Joe, I didn't know that one Joe, does that mean that as Anilyn will be arriving before the 28 days is up she can stay for two years without the need for FLR, I may be being stupid But it has been a long day That will save at least £395 and a lot of photo copying and form filling in etc We can better spend that on our wedding and holidays etc if this is the case

    not save you £395, but stop you wasting £395 ...
    if your wife has a spouse visa, she is suppose to actually be in the uk 2 years ! before she can apply for ILR, but infact she can apply upto 28 days before she has been in the uk 2 years, and not sooner !!.

    if your wife comes to the uk with in 28 days after the start date on her spouse visa then she will have been in the uk 23 months+ the upto 28 days before you can apply = 2 yrs. but if she comes after 28 days of the start date of her spouse visa, then her spouse visa will have expired before she can apply for ILR. so you might have to apply for FLR to make up her stay til she has been in the uk 2years, or take the risk and apply for ILR sooner than you should have, and risk losing the money, or being an overstayer as her visa has expired and being in breach of immigration law.

    read the notes in the SET(M) form on the ind website...

    I am still confused about the term Spouse Visa, is that the same as a Fiancee Visa, giving us the right to marry here in the UK. We are not married yet! but will be in November this year

    Cheers Joe

    Cheers Joe, That cleared up the situation for me and maybe some others in here, Anilyn told me the same today too Oh well £395 in one hand and out of the other That's Life Anilyn already knew as she has done her homework as she calls it

    Think I will have to leave the Marriage in the Philippines till another day We will take our wedding vows again in a church in Pangasinan so Anilyn's Family and friends can attend She thinks we will need two whole pigs for the party afterwards, thats about 180 kg of Bacon, Don't know how many Kg of Pancit will be required, but at least I will not have to cook it all

    Thanks Joe, You are a great help in this forum
