Hi I'm Rick, my partners name on this site is Juve Rick (Juve) I need some quick advice from any one who may be able to help. Question 1, what is the actual name of the fiancé visa? eg.. FLR 765... and 2 I've only seen her once in the last 2 years. One form suggests that I may have to visit her again. Is that the case?
For the Partner, Spouse, CP (Civil Partner) and Fiance(e) the formal UKVI endorsements for entry clearance are indicated on the visa as 'Visa Type'Originally Posted by juverick
In line with the immigration rules under Appendix FM (Family Members)
The visa type for each category will be indicated as:-
Partner = Settlement: To Join/Acc Partner
Spouse = Spouse/CP
CP (Civil Partner) = Spouse/CP
Fiance(e) = Marriage/CP
So the answer to your specific question concerning Finace(e) visa is Marriage/CP
This should not be confused with a Marriage Visit Visa which is issued on a maximum 6 months basis solely to allow a marriage ceremony to take place in UK after which, the visa holder returns home and the visa becomes invalid.
The visa type for this special visit visa will be indicated as Visit - Marriage/CP
A very small difference in wording but a very big difference in meaning.
That is the UKVI technical definition. Most everyone else still refers to Spouse Visa, Fiance(e) Visa and Unmarried Partner Visa.
Under immigration rules it's called family settlement and is governed by the immigration rules under Chapter 08: appendix FM family members
Does that help you?
UKVI will make a judgement on the relationship based on the evidential documentation submitted with the application.
They apply more scrutiny on Fiance(e) visa applications.
The caseworkers and ECO's will follow the UKVI published guide called Genuine and Subsisting Relationship
It's not a tick-box exercise and decisions are based on a case-by-case basis depending on the application 'picture' as a whole and at the discretion of the caseworker.
Obviously evidence of physically being together presents a much stronger case.
Not having phyisically been together for 2 years is going to present pretty major challenge in terms of convincing the UKVI caseworkers of a genuine and subsisting relationship.
But without knowing and understanding the relationship and communications nobody can give you any clear guidance on that. Two years is long time.
Personally, I would very strongly suggest you visit her in the Philippines before any settlement visa application gets made.
Perhaps it's possible to get married in the Philippines at that time ?
By the way Rick, Welcome aboard Filipino UK
