Thanks in advance.

Questions regarding Visa applications:
- We have some credit debt in the UK - will this be taken into consideration for the visa application? We have vast savings between us but we're hoping to just pay the debt monthly rather than a lump sum.
- Ideally, we would like to secure a position before migrating. With that in mind, is it worth starting the process earlier and continue to look for jobs?
- Is the best option to apply for a joint visa?
- Is it worth using an agent to aid in the visa process?
- We are planning on getting married in the next couple of years. Would it be beneficial to do this before starting the visa application?
Thanks in advance.
