Hi, Everybody hope you're all well. Me and the wife are moving back to the UK next July I'm a UK citizen and the wife is Canadian, I've been trying to find out an answer to my question on these forums but with no luck so I apologize for the dumb question in advance. Do we just fly to the UK and then apply for a visa to remain or do we have to apply for a vise for the wife beforehand ?
Thanks
Dave

Your wife will need to apply from Canada.

Thank you

As said you (wife) apply from Canada:

There are financial requirements and only certain categories under which to apply: (see below)

Thanks, Is there a time limit to enter the UK after the spousal visit has been granted?

SanDiegogirl

It's usually been 30 days to enter the UK and pick up your BRP - think that might have been extended? Can someone else confirm this?

BritInParis

Usually 90 days from the stated intended date of entry or date of grant whichever is later.

All the best
