Wedding to arrival in England--> lead time

Just so you know, you cannot submit your Spouse Visa application until you have all the required documents. This includes the *Marriage Certificate... you will not get *this until at least one month after the marriage has taken place, sometimes longer I hear.... I think you can fast track it (others will tell you how).

We asked in Sibonga Municipal building about Fast track and they said it doesn't exist - all applications take the same time, however when we received the official certification we were asked why we didn't pay for fast track. So i would be wary about what you pay for.

End of the day, don't expect miracles. Things are slow here. My parents were with us when we visited the Municipal office after the wedding, my mother felt like she had gone back in time 50 years. All typewriters and filing cabinets...........

Yes, everything can be fast tracked if you know the right people - we got ours in less than a week
