What type of visa will I receive?

The Unmarried Partner Visa is for long-term partners of British or Irish citizens, individuals settled in the UK with pre-settled status or ILR. If your partner is currently outside the UK but plans to return with you, you can still apply for a UK unmarried partner visa.​

​

This visa offers a validity period of 2 years and 9 months with the option to extend for an additional 2.5 years. 

Estimated Processing times

Typically, the visa processing time is up to 12-24 weeks from the date of biometric submission, with the option of a fast-track service that may yield results in approximately 6 weeks (though not guaranteed). 

 

To be eligible, applicants must meet the following requirements:

• You are in a genuine, subsisting and durable relationship.

• You have been in a committed relationship for a minimum of 2 years before the time of application and the relationship is ongoing at the date of application

• Have access to adequate accommodation in the UK.

• The sponsor must earn at least GBP 29,000 per annum or have cash savings of GBP 88,500 held in a bank account for a minimum of 6 months prior to the date of application.*

• Pass an English language test at level A1 or higher (applicants over 65 are exempt).

• Provide evidence of divorce certificates if previously married.

• Undergo TB screening.

​

As per the most recent update from the Home Office, the minimum income requirement for the UK spouse visa will incrementally increase to £29,000 on 11th April 2024. If you are using Cash Savings, the corresponding minimum savings requirement will rise to £88,500.
