A UK Spouse Visa, also known as a Marriage Visa, allows partners of British citizens or settled residents to live in the UK. The initial visa is granted for 2.5 years and can be extended for another 2.5 years, leading to Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) after five years.

Our Spouse Visa Solicitors in Manchester provide comprehensive assistance to ensure your application meets all the necessary financial, relationship, and legal requirements.

Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) & British Citizenship

✔ Live and work in the UK without restrictions
✔ Travel freely in and out of the UK
✔ Apply for British Citizenship after one year

Our immigration solicitors can help you navigate the ILR process, ensuring all requirements are met.

British Citizenship & Naturalisation – If you have ILR or Settled Status, you may apply for British Citizenship after 12 months. We will guide you through the citizenship application process, including:
