I too married a Jamaican man almost 3 years ago now and am still waiting for him to get here!!!!
It has been a very costly (going back and forth to Jamaica and all the phone calls) and emotionally draining relationship , we also have a young daughter together and she is growing up without her father.
To be honest with you i would have probably thought a bit more about marrying my husband, not because of who he is but more for where he is from. If you think that you can stand the pressure then i send you blessings but i do not think that you really want to go through such an emotional journey, especially since you have a child, Jamaica is a beautiful island but is full of corrupt money grabbing people, especially the government, I know , my family are from there and i call it my second home, all i can say is listen to advice but more importantly listen to your heart, any doubt do not do it.,
If you decide to go ahead then you will need to provide lots of info ,photos, letters etc, the more the better.
God bless

Do you have a British Passport?
If so, once you and your husband have been married, he will need to apply for a Marriage Visa at the British Embassy In Jamaica. I assume it will probably be in Kingston.
You will need to go together to the British Embassy and fill out a Marriage Visa application and also provide evidence of your relationship and financies including:
-Marriage Certificate
-Both of your Passports
-Bank Statements showing finances
-Rent Agreement/Mortgage Deed confirming your residence
-Any photos of you together, letters or cards to each other, gift receipts, etc as proof of your long term relationship
Your husband will also need to provide photos to be used in his Visa. If you need any further advice or information, the CAB will be able to help.
Good luck and have a wonderful wedding day : )

How long have you known this man? Is he your age or younger, could you be more specific pls?
From what I know, many Jamacian men use women to get in the UK, although this is not always the case.
You will need to seek Legal advice first giving details on your situation as some partners are not always allowed. If his case to come to the UK was unsuccessful, would you still go through the marriage? How does your son feel about this and would he want to move to Jamaica?

By the time he gets entry clearance to come to the uk, you son would have finished school and started university!!! those 2 - 3 years do not matter.
don't be fooled girl, once he's here he won't be going back and guaranteed he willl link up with his long lost jamaican friends in London (especially female) and he will start treating you like sh*t. This situation is so typical it is untrue.
Why would you want to put your son through such a culture shock anyway? You would uproot your son for a man? what is up with you?

There are steps you can take to actually build a strong, stable marriage and avoid divorce. Read here https://tr.im/isYqb
Here are some key steps to apply to your marriage:
- Start by understanding and being informed.
You can never be too informed about tools, methods and studies about building successful marriages. Understand the risk factors like your age and maturity at marriage can determine how successful it will be, the anatomy of an affair and what you can do after infidelity. Understand the success factors like the personal and psychological circumstances that will influence your marriage, what are the tools and approaches available to you in dealing with conflict, and numerous other relevant data. All this information is readily available to you whether through self-help material, through a counselor, support group or other venues. In fact, we have made it our commitment to provide these to you in different formats to help you make the best marriage you can.
The thing is, remember, this is information is not available for you to begin hyper-psychoanalyzing your relationship, yourself and your partner. It's not a matter of spewing trivia for the sake of conversation ' information is there for you to ponder over and internalize to help you transform yourself and your marriage. That includes maturing to such a point that you become more competent in your knowledge but more prudent in approach.

I'd file for him before you get married, it's a long hard process. If you marry in Jamaica homeoffice expect you to live over there and that's it. Save everything, I mean everything... photos, flight ticket info, phone cards, birthday cards are some of the things they like. You also need to prove you can support him. You'll need your bank info, proof that you do not claim benefits and can support him. A forum I found helpful was www.ukresident.com. Good Luck!!
