I know with the spouse visa you do have to but fiancee as long as you marry in the uk within six months and sort out flr once your married you don't have to worry so much. Im sure thats what someone on here wrote, who was going though the process.
Thanks for that Andypaul.
Fiance will come here by end of the month, we will stay here together for 2 weeks, we will stop in Thailand for few days and it will be over a month before I enter UK with him. I just worried that might have a problem in the Immigration point in Heathrow. We did not expect that my visa will be granted that quick and we have planned this before.
Im just wondering if anyone here enter the UK one month after her fiancee visa has issued. And does anyone here had experienced being questioned by the Immigration Officer in Heathrow,about entering UK within 28 days after the visa has issued.
Hiya!
Did the entry clearance officer at the embassy asked you about what date you plan to go to UK? After my interview, the ECO asked me and I told them that i will go to Uk a month after so they postdated the date of my visa. otherwise i will waste 1 month of validity. But in your case, I think you should be fine because it's not included in the requirement to marry that you have to be here for a certain period of time. About the immigration officer at the uk airport, I think their concern is the expiration date of your visa.
It's better if you check with the british embassy.
Even with a spouse Visa as many people have found out they don't mention if you are over the 28 days, which only affects them later when they go for ILR so i would guess its the same for finacee that nothing will be said.Originally Posted by Manilana
Hi thanks for your reply guys. I just read this from the ukvisa links;
"If you have been granted entry clearance as a husband, wife, civil partner, or unmarried or same-sex partner, you will need to enter the UK within 28 days of the start date shown on your visa. You should tell the Entry Clearance Officer the exact date on which you will be travelling before your visa is issued. "

I got confused now. Does this statements refers to fiancee? or for spouse and samesex partner?
Thanks

Hi Hilda,
I got my visa without interview, but I clearly wrote in my letter and in my fiance`s supporting letter and also in the visa application form that I intended to travel to UK by end of Ferbruary, but still it is written in my visa the date of issue and valid from yesterday to six months.
Fiancee visa takes six months from the date it is being issued and it has multiple entry the validity of it is also being stated in your visa...no worries regarding that 28 days is applicable only for those under spouse visa for if you enter uk more than 28 after the issuance of spouse visa
it will affect the ILR application in the future as you need to stay or live in uk for within 24 months to get a permanent residency...
