    Hi All,

    My Fiancee and I are planning to marry in Canada and then she's going to come over here. We've got no dependents, and I don't see any issues with the financial side of things.

    I've got a (potential) issue regarding accomodation. At present, I'm living on my own in a studio. I'm wondering whether this will be considered too small when she comes over - I'm hoping to buy a place, but I'd naturally like her to be here first ;)

    Failing that, is it worth me considering finding somewhere else to rent in the meantime, in order to guarantee that side of things?

    Also, does anyone know what sort of documents are required - the government website is slightly vague (aside from the obvious passport, marriage certificate, etc).

    Thanks.

    You should be fine.

    ‘Adequate’ accommodation mainly means accommodation that is not overcrowded, although if the accommodation is seriously flawed in some other way that may also mean it is inadequate. Overcrowding is judged according to the table below, where rooms are proper rooms - not, for example, a kitchen or bathroom. A child under the age of one does not count as a person and a child between one and ten counts as half a person:



    Rooms - Persons permitted


    1 - 2

    2- - 3

    3 - 5

    4 - 7.5

    5 - 10

    *
    with an additional 2 persons for each room in excess of 5

    In addition, the spouses must show that they own the accommodation or will occupy it exclusively, meaning that they have a private space that is theirs alone. This can include a room or rooms in a shared house or in a parent’s house.

    Sorry to interject.

    So, if it were just me and my fiance living in a flat with a kitchen a living room a bathroom and 1 bedroom and all decent sized rooms. Would there be a problem there?

    Just to clarify then, we're basically saying that:

    (A) As long as the accomodation is in good condition
    (B) As long as there is at least one room for the couple

    It doesn't actually matter whether I have a living room, study, garage, dining room, entrance hall, etc, etc :)
