UK Spouse visa requires a large set of documents in support. Since there are many requirements and specified documents. You may find that your documents are in the wrong format, scanned poorly, has too many extra and unrelated pages, needs to be merged or combined to stop you from having 100 plus files and so items can easily be missed by the decision maker.

Sometimes your items may be too large in size (6 MB or more), your work letter or bank statement may have password protection, all these oversized, password protected and unreadable documents will simply not be considered. This can cause delays and lead to refusals. Please get in touch ( UK 00442071933839 or email saleh@wafi.co.uk ) for supporting documents help and free consultation.

UK Spouse visa is a VERY difficult application to do on your own, it is very expensive (more than £5,300 / $0) , complex and tricky to satisfy as there are many requirements and specified documents. You may have what the requirements says but you may not have the particular evidence that the Home Office wants. Your application can be refused if only a single point is missed or not adequately evidenced.

Will my Kenyan marriage certificate be recognised in the UK?

Is a Kenyan marriage certificate valid in the UK? The short answer is that the UK Home Office will recognise any official marriage conducted outside the UK. It has to be a legal Kenyan court marriage that meets the local Kenyan rules. This may not be true for unofficial religious marriages or certificates from countries where multiple spouses are permitted and one or both parties may still be married to someone else in Kenya or in the UK.

Please note that any document that is not in English (only Kenyan ), official English translations must be provided. Please get in touch so that we can assess and confirm, if your Kenyan marriage certificate will be recognised by the UK and what to do to make your case stronger and give you peace of mind. We can also discuss your alternative application options, should your marriage certificate not be recognised, including the option and steps to get married in the UK.

Do I need to register my foreign Kenyan marriage in the UK? As stated above a marriage abroad in Kenya will be legally recognised in the UK provided it was contracted according to the law of the country in which it took place, in this case Kenya. There is no requirement, or facility, to register the Kenyan marriage in the UK afterwards. UK has stopped the facility where you could re-register or record a marriage that has been conducted abroad.

What is the difference between spouse visa and partner visa UK?

There are several types of UK family visas for couples, namely: UK Spouse Visa, UK Partner Visa, UK Fiancé Visa, UK Fiancée Visa, UK Marriage Visa. The key difference between them is the status of the relationship, so a Spouse Visa is for couples who are already married. An Unmarried partner visa is for a couple who have lived together (usually 2 years or more) akin to marriage but are not married and currently do not intend to get married. Fiancé, Fiancée Visa is for couples who want to get married (in the next 6 months) and settle in the UK. Lastly, UK Marriage (Visitor) Visa is for couples living abroad and who want to get married in the UK but are not currently looking to settle in the UK.

Can I bring my Kenyan girlfriend to the UK? You can bring your Kenyan girlfriend / boyfriend to the UK as a visitor / student / worker, however to settle here i.e. stay for longer than 6 months or be able to work and study in the UK based on the family ties (husband / wife / girlfriend / boyfriend / unmarried partner) they would need to meet the UK spouse visa requirements or UK unmarried partner visa requirements.

UK Family visa or UK Dependant visa?
Please remember that if your sponsor is in the UK on a work visa or student visa, you cannot apply for a family visa, since your family member themselves are in the UK temporarily under a sponsorship from a company or university, as a worker or a student. You can only apply to stay with them as their dependant instead. This is a different route and has different requirements. We can help you with your UK Dependant visa applications, please get in touch.

Can my Kenyan partner work in the UK?

Usually, if you meet the income requirements of £29,000 or £34,500 (from Sept 2024), the bank balance is not relevant. If you are relying on savings you need £88,500 ($0) or (£102,250 ($0) from 11 April 2024) or more minimum balance (fully on savings) or a mix of income and savings £16,000 ($0) to £88,500 / £102,250 or more in savings).

Home Office Exchange Rates Policy ( £1 = 169.28 Kenyan Shilling )
The Home Office Exchange Rate Policy (HOERP) is used to set the exchange rates for Home Office fees charged in foreign currencies, The policy applies the Oanda (live bid rate at the time of update) as the base exchange rate when taking payments in any currency other than pound sterling. All Home Office exchange rates are set at 4% above the Oanda live bid rates. This is designed to ensure that exchange rates charged reflect commercial exchange rates, while also ensuring that the risk to the Home Office, and UK taxpayer, of fluctuating exchange rates is kept to a minimum.

What if our Kenyan UK Spouse Visa is refused?

If you get a refusal, you have the option to re-apply or appeal. The decision you take depends on your circumstances and the reasons for the refusal. Some reasons can only be addressed via representation and by an immigration judge. You have a limited time to act so contact us for guidance and tips ✉ | ☎

What happens if our relationship ends

As the visa is based on the relationship (Partner or Spouse), if the relationship comes to an end the visa would also end, this is not automatic but the sponsor removing their support means you cannot renew on the same basis or will be cut short (if you or the sponsor notify the Home Office). If there are British children involved or there was domestic violence you may have other visa options such as parent of a British child or may benefit from Home Office DV concessions rules. Do you need help with divorce? For guidance, options and tips contact us ✉ | ☎ |

Family Law - financial rights and obligations

Getting married is an exciting time and often couples don’t consider how their legal obligations to each other will change when they get married. Why not let us prepare agreements that give you more certainty about your financial rights and obligations if your marriage breaks down.

If you are planning to marry, you may want to consider protecting assets or determining the financial terms of separation in case your relationship breaks down by entering into a prenuptial agreement. If you are already married, you may want to consider entering into a post-nuptial agreement to regulate the financial terms of any separation. This step may be particularly important to couples who are moving to or out of the UK and want to link the outcome of any divorce to the laws of their country of origin. The agreement can also tackle financial, tax and succession planning.

Wafi Solicitors are highly experienced in drafting, negotiating and advising on pre and post-nuptial agreements. They give clear and efficient advice on the law, but are sensitive to the social, religious and emotional difficulties associated with the process.

They act for a wide range of people including business owners looking to protect their business interests, families wishing to protect inherited wealth, wealthy individuals and couples who have international connections (Kenya ). They can also help with parenting agreements, romantic fraud avoidance and other family related tasks. For guidance, options and tips ✉ | ☎

What is the alternative to a UK spouse visa?

You may consider a work, student or a visitor visa, Each visa type has its own set of requirements. Visitor visa is also likely fail if you have weak ties to your country of origin, Kenya and a spouse / partner in the UK. As the Home Office will deem the partner who is settled in the UK as being too much of a strong reason for you to remain in the UK after your visit as a Kenyan national. The Home Office may also refuse stating that the visa applied for is the wrong category since you have a partner / spouse who is settled in the UK. They may regard your alternative application as a way of going around the spouse visa costs and extensive requirements.
