YOUR Common questions about UK Spouse Visas
The standard processing time for an application submitted outside the UK is 60 working days. The Home Office provides a priority service of 30 working days for an additional fee. The standard processing time for an application submitted in the UK is 8 weeks. The Home Office provides a priority service of 24 hours and 5 working days for an additional fee. The processing time starts from the date of the biometric appointment and is not guaranteed.
Applicants from outside the UK are granted a visa for 33 months, and applicants in the UK are granted a visa for 30 months.
Spouse visa applications are automatically considered a human rights claim, meaning If UK Spouse Visa applications are refused, you will generally have the right to appeal.
Appeals are heard at the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) in the UK.
If you are in the UK, you and your spouse can attend and present evidence. If you are outside the UK, your spouse can attend while you submit a written statement and evidence. Remote testimony might be arranged if appropriate.
Immigration appeals can take several months and the outcomes can be uncertain. We strongly advise to seek legal advice from a specialist immigration lawyer before appealing a Spouse Visa refusal.

” 5 stars for these superb lawyers! Mulgrave Law helped me secure a UK spouse visa from the USA. They came highly recommended and I saw how good they were first hand. They were proactive, highly professional, and guided me, I’m certain the process would have been far more difficult and time-consuming without their support and probably much more costly. I’m especially grateful to the team for always being available to answer my questions and making a potentially stressful process feel manageable. Their service is outstanding, and I highly recommend them.”
