Here you go - you should be eligible for an ancestry visa. It's cheaper and easier than a spouse visa. It is contingent on you planning to work in the UK.

The OP was given the same advice a year ago and chose to ignore and apply for a spouse visa instead.

Re: Going Back
from the OP post #13 in this thread, if his grandfather was born in Calcutta India (not Scotland)- how would this qualify the OP for an ancestry visa?

Can the OP confirm whether his grandfather was born in Scotland or India Only from what was posted in post 13, how would his grandfather be Scottish, unless it was by descent? "I came on a Visitor-marriage Visa in june 2015 left Sept 6-2015 (Married August 24/2015 My grand father is scottish This from Find My Past: Grand Father First Name (S): Louis Ernest Last name: Waddel Baptism Year: 1911 Place, St Teresa Presidency Bengal" . |
Re: Going Back
The option of the Ancestry visa for this OP was discussed last year.
The OP could not find any documentation to back up his UK grandfather's background so it was never pursued. The OP went the marriage visitor visa and is now pursuing a spouse visa. |
