This visa allows non-British partners to reside and work in the United Kingdom. The family immigration scheme includes the partner and spouse visa which permits a qualified foreign national to join and live with their partner in the UK if they are a British citizen, settled in the UK, has Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), permanent residence, or EU Settled Status.

If you are the husband, wife, civil partner, unmarried partner (living together in a relationship for at least 2 years), fiancé, fiancée, or proposed civil partner (will marry or enter into a civil partnership in the UK within six months of arrival) of a specified partner, you can apply for this family visa.
