Thanks for bringing that to our attention, overstaying is indeed a reason for a visa to be declined, I always assumed that was common knowledge, but its good to see the rules are being observed.

This may be applicable to those who come to the UK as tourists, and expect nothing to happen when they overstay there welcome in our country, if they comply with the rules, they should be fine.

If they flout the rules, then they should expect to be declined, that is their choice.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

common knowledge, it may well be in immigration rules about refusal for overstaying, but i don't think its being enforced until now, i've never read about anyone being refused a spouse visa for overstaying, usually the overstayer would go back to thier country without being noticed by the immigration dept, and apply for a spouse visa without a problem, even if they've overstayed here for years, i've read many posts when they have been granted a spouse visa, even after 3 years as a overstayer, but since last month, i've heard of a few cases, where they have gone back to thier country as stated in my post, they have been refused for being overstayers. looks like some case workers are enforcing the rules.. or its starting to become standard..

Hi gina and peter
As far as the rules go, if my fiancee gets her visa and we get married in the uk within 6 months , can we apply for her right to remain before the fiancee visa expires. I know how the spouse visa works but not fiancee. And yes, i have been looking on your site and this one for research. Maybe i missed something. Any thoughts cheers spindrift.
