I think she got married just showing EOJ (Entry of Judgment) so she didn't have to wait for the decree of annulment. Saved her a lot of time.
True love can wait...been waiting almost 6 years lol i feel like mold's are starting to grow on me hehehe

Earlier when I posted this... It gave me a little glimpse of Hope for couples like me and my fiance... who has been enduring this long waiting period for the annulment.
But now after hearing the experience of someone I know ...
- She was also waiting for her annulment decision
- Applied for a Fiance visa...and was GRANTED
- When it was time to extend her visa because unfortunately the decision was not released yet...they REFUSED her.
Obviously, this article is just a piece of misleading information. A way to get some extra cash!
I really give full credit to my friend for sharing this.
I guess again...we just have to wait and wait....(tapping)
3. LEAVE TO REMAIN AS A FIANCÉ(E) OR PROPOSED CIVIL PARTNER OF A
PERSON SETTLED IN THE UNITED KINGDOM
The requirements to be met by a person seeking to remain in the United Kingdom as a
fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner are set out in Paragraph 293 of HC 395 as amended
by HC 538 and HC 582 and must be referred to when reading the following advice.
3.1. Key points
Caseworkers must satisfy themselves that:
- s/he was admitted with a valid United Kingdom entry clearance as a fiancé(e) or
proposed civil partner; and
- there is good cause as to why the marriage or civil partnership did not take place
within the initial period of leave; and
- there is satisfactory evidence that the marriage or civil partnership will take place
at an early date; and
- the provisions of Paragraph 290 of HC 395 as amended by HC 538 continue to be met.
3.2. Further guidance
There is no provision in the Immigration Rules for a person admitted in another
temporary capacity to be granted leave to remain as a fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner
and such applications should normally be refused. However, where we are satisfied that
there are exceptional compassionate circumstances, such as the serious terminal
illness of one of the parties to the marriage or civil partnership, consideration may be
given to granting leave on a discretional basis. The maintenance and accommodation
requirements must, though, still be met.
what was the reason for the refusal ?
it doesn't look like they would accept that your divorce was not finalised as a valid reason for granting an extension, as you should not have applied for a fiancée visa if you was not certain in would be finalised within the 6 months.
did you get a right to appeal ?
for a fiancée visa, If the applicant/sponsor have a prior marriage, they must include their divorce certificates (or death certificates in the case of widowers).
so i don't know what your chances of getting a fiancée visa are while still married, but if your divorce will be final within 6 months and you have a letter from your lawyer stating that, then you have a better chance of getting a fiancée visa..
but if it doesn't come thru within the 6 months of you getting a fiancée visa, i would have thought the chances of you getting a extension would be small, i mean what happens if you don't then, how many extensions is enough and also remember you need to provide evidence you do intend to get married when you apply for a fiancée visa.
