Navigating a Complex UK Partner Visa Amid Health and Travel Challenges

The Challenges Faced

In 2024, our Canadian client sought to join her British partner, Mr H, in the UK amid his worsening cancer, which had metastasized from prostate to spine. Multiple UK visits for his chemotherapy, combined with a relationship duration under the required two years, necessitated exceptional consideration from the Home Office to meet partner visa criteria.

How Latitude Law Helped

Latitude Law applied our deep UK immigration law expertise to prepare a robust partner visa application, addressing the couple’s unique circumstances. After their recent marriage in Canada, we drafted and filed the application, scheduling a biometrics appointment for December 2024. Our team provided tailored advice on relationship requirements and managed the process sensitively, accommodating the client’s frequent UK trips.

The Outcome

Mrs H’s UK partner visa was successfully secured, enabling her to join her husband during a critical time. This case highlights Latitude Law’s ability to navigate complex UK visa challenges with precision and empathy, delivering client-focused solutions that ensure compliance and successful immigration outcomes.
