[alienboy]

Hi,

I can't find a suitable visa, I want to live in the UK - permanently without leaving on my 2nd visit, I have been once on a holiday I meet nice guy who is British but want to come back and marry and stay.I check the GOV.uk website but they say you must leave after
6 marriage (marriage visa) how I can come stay.

This is a terriblyt complex area of the law that most of us
since we are English, dont get to experience
And those that do -- dont like it much

yes I was aware that there was a rule tha you had to apply from outside the country ....

You need professional advice and should start with your local CAB....

If you wish to marry and then live in the UK afterwards you may need to apply for a family visa.

After 5 years of marriage and living in the UK you may apply for the right to stay here.

Sorry- had to abort my earlier post as it's so awkward using AB on my phone due to small screen, predictive text and not being able to add links, especially when walking ! Back on laptop now.
This site is helpful. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/immigration/visas-family-and-friends/getting-a-visa-for-your-spouse-or-partner-to-live-in-the-uk/

You or your partner (probably him if he lives here and you don't) definitely needs to talk to Citizens Advice if more info is needed or you need to seek legal advice. It's so important to get things right so you can have some certainty when you start your married life

The immigration people are obviously very keen to ensure such marriages are genuine as people do try to abuse the system to gain UK residential status so you need to make sure it's done properly. You may need to be prepared to pay to get proper advive- but check the solicitors in UK are authorised to give advice

Marry British nice guy in India, make him dad to your baby & he can claim you & babe to live in UK. Or apply to work as doctor/nurse.

This question looks remarkably familiar.

Whether it's from the same person as before though is irrelevant anyway. My response here provides a complete answer:

(i.e. a Marriage Visitor Visa is the WRONG visa to apply for. You need to apply for a Family Visa)
