Currently, my girlfriend and I are both students in the UK, we both are oversea students. After graduation, I wish to continue my education in Feb 2007. But my current student visa expires at the end of Nov 2006. I wish to stay until Feb in the UK. One for my graduation ceremony, and also have a rest. My girlfriend wishes to stay with me. So far, there are three questions about my student visa and my girlfriend’s dependant visa (switch from her student visa).
1. In my circumstance, Can I apply for both my graduation extension and second master student visa together if I post the application documents in Nov 2006?
2. In respect of my girlfriend, we have lived together for more than one year in the UK but without marriage. Recently, we arrange to apply to get marry in mid of Sept. After that, she wishes to switch her student visa to dependant visa in the UK and apply on the same student application form with me. Is our short period marriage circumstance a barrier for our visa? Or are there any documents required to support our situation?
3. Does she need to return our country to apply for dependant visa or she could switch her student visa into dependant visa in the UK?
We have done some researches for rules of dependant visa. But no straightforward answer especially for whether student visa switching to dependant visa need to apply in own counrtry or could be done in the UK.
I am looking for some suggestion from experienced people or anyone who has a clear answer in mind.
Many thanks!
Wish you all all the best!
