What is a Spouse Visa and its certain benefits in the UK?
The UK spouse visa is granted to a person who is married to a person in the UK who either holds UK
citizenship or holds ‘Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK”. The people who
come to the UK based on a fiancé visa then apply for a spouse visa after
getting married. This allows them to stay in the UK for longer. The duration of
the UK spouse visa depends on where it is applied. If one has applied it from
the outside UK then the stay is allowed up to 33 months and if it is applied
from within the UK then the stay is allowed up to 30 months.
The spouse visa can be seen
as a way to get settled in the UK. If one stays in the UK for up to 60 months
then one is entitled to apply for “Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK” and
eventually can apply for citizenship in the UK as well. One can shift to a
spouse visa immediately if one is there in the UK for more than 6 months on the
base of any visa including the fiancé visa. The spouse visa is very beneficial
for those who want to stay in the UK after getting married so that they can join
their partner for a longer time. Eventually, one is entitled to citizenship and
one can get permanent there.
Here are certain advantages
of getting a spouse visa:
·
The best advantage of a spouse visa is that one can get settled
in the UK permanently after staying there for 60 months and applying for
“Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK” and finally for citizenship.
·
Under the spouse visa, one is also allowed to work in the UK.
This is one of the best things as under a spouse visa one can work without any
restrictions. One is entitled to do any kind of job.
·
The spouse visa also makes one entitled to get all the benefits
that a UK citizen gets except for the public funds. Leaving one benefit, one
can enjoy all the rest benefits under the spouse visa in the UK.
·
The spouse visa indirectly gives the way to one to get settled
in the UK permanently. One needs to complete 60 months in the UK to apply for
further stay in the UK.
So, the UK spouse visa is very beneficial for those who want to get settled in the UK with their partner.
