Partner application where couple not yet living together

The Challenges Faced

Mrs S, a non-UK national, faced difficulties with her spouse visa extension application. Although previously granted a partner entry clearance visa to relocate to the UK with her British husband and two children, her husband had not yet retired and was spending most of his time in Africa for work. This raised concerns about proving a genuine and subsisting relationship and their intention to live together permanently in the UK.

How Latitude Law Helped

Latitude Law assisted Mrs S by carefully preparing her application, including drafting witness statements, collecting evidence of time spent together, documenting contact while apart, explaining the importance of her husband’s role in Africa, and providing documents to demonstrate their genuine intention to live together permanently in the UK in the future.

The Outcome

With Latitude Law’s thorough preparation, Mrs S’s spouse visa extension application was granted in less than 24 hours.
