Getting married before my visa expires.

[Terpe]

Thank you for the info Terpe. I think i'm panicking now!
Do we need to move the date of the wedding earlier? What will happen after we submit the FLR(M) after the wedding, since my visa will expire on the tenth?

Will i be an illegal/overstayer if i dont have the extension of visa after the the wedding..assuming they will not receive my application before my visa expires?

What should i do?

If you can be sure to have the FLR(M) application on the desk of The Home Office BEFORE your visa expiry then you'll be OK
Your immigration status will remain in place and fully legal whilst your application is reviewed. So put those worries out of your mind.

You'll only be granted an extension to the fiancee visa if you evidence GOOD reasons. There really needs to be a good reason why you did not already get married.

As everyone has said get that application done and dusted NOW and fully ready to submit in plenty of time.

You both need to develop an urgent strategy to get married and submit the FLR(M) NOW

Just out of curiosity why have you taken such a huge risk and left it so very late?

we are now reviewing, researching and gathering every documents we needed for the application. we have most of the documents already, since our application is straightforward we hope that there will be no more hassle until we have our marriage cert.

we had decided to have the marriage late because we want to make sure this is what we really wanted. We want to experience living together for few months to make sure we are comfortable and compatible...and let the love grow stronger..

ps..the marriage has already been booked on oct the 1st.
