no idea, as this site is British Expats most of us don't need a visa to return as we are British Passport holders.

Sorry to see you got slapped down somewhat for asking a simple question!!!


It doesn't take long, I am British but I do have a foreign wife, and her 5 year visa came through with little time delay, think it was 4 days. She has had a few 1 and 2 year visas before.

Just get the forms and carefully read them and make sure you submit all the documents required, not forgetting an invitation letter. Surprisingly I could not invite my own wife as I live in UAE, and had to get a friend resident in UK to do so! If no friends in UK you will need a hotel, if its a holiday, or company invitation letter if its is a business trip.

Good luck.
