Spouse and Partner Visa

Spouse & Partner Visas


Helping couples stay together and build their lives in the UK.


Who This Is For

This visa route is for non-UK nationals in a genuine and ongoing relationship with a British citizen or someone settled in the UK. It includes married couples, civil partners, and unmarried partners. Whether you're applying from outside the UK or extending your stay within it, we’ll guide you every step of the way.


What We Help With

  • Spouse, Civil Partner & Unmarried Partner visa applications

  • In-country FLR(M) extensions

  • Proving cohabitation and genuine relationship

  • Meeting the financial and accommodation requirements

  • Priority services, refusals, and reapplications


Key Requirements (Updated April 2024)

To be eligible for a Spouse or Partner visa, you generally must:

✅ Be in a genuine and subsisting relationship
✅ Intend to live together permanently in the UK
✅ Meet the financial requirement: £29,000 per year(from April 2024)
✅ Have suitable accommodation in the UK
✅ Demonstrate English language ability:

  • A1 for initial entry from abroad

  • A2 at FLR(M) extension stage

  • B1 when applying for settlement (ILR)

✅ If not married or in a civil partnership:

  • Show 2+ years of cohabitation in a relationship “akin to marriage”


Transitional Arrangements

If your visa was granted before April 2024, you may still qualify under the previous income threshold of £18,600 — provided you remain on the same visa route and continue to meet all extension and settlement requirements.

We’ll confirm your exact position and help you prepare based on the applicable rules.
