Spousal Visa
Hello All,
Just joined the forum after lurking for a while, so much great information here, thank you all for the contributions! I have a question. We recently submitted a spousal visa application, I am the sponsor and my Canadian wife the applicant. While we feel the application is good, my financial fulfillment is a little complex as I get paid in dividends and wonder if we could get refused on this, even though we have provided all evidence possible. We paid priority and are hoping for a response by end of October. At the end of February 2019, we will have had over a 100k GBP in a joint bank account for 6 months at which point we could apply again if initial application refused. Could my wife come to the UK on a visitor visa in the interim and then return back to Canada to make a second application? Would she be declined entry as she would not have a job or residence in Canada any longer? Thank you all in advance! |

Anecdotally there may be a problem with her getting a visitor visa as she has no ties to her home country, and also they will know you have a spouse visa being adjudicated, so may well see it as her trying to get into the UK to live. |

Anecdotally there may be a problem with her getting a visitor visa as she has no ties to her home country, and also they will know you have a spouse visa being adjudicated, so may well see it as her trying to get into the UK to live. What about applying for a visitor visa prior to leaving Canada rather than just turning up in the UK and risk being turned away? Cheers |
Re: Spouse Visa/ Visitor Visa Question
Canadian citizens don’t need a visa in order to visit the UK for up to six months but a recent refusal and no ties to her home country may see her refused entry. Best to wait until a decision is made on her spouse visa before getting into theoretical scenarios.

Re: Spouse Visa/ Visitor Visa Question
Thank you for the response, you are right of course.
I'm just trying to see what our options would be in the interim, should we be refused. Cheers :wave: |
