Hello everyone! I just joined the forum because I need some help with the unmarried partners visa in the UK. My case is not very straightforward because I am Mexican and my partner is French, but we have been together in the UK for two years. I have already written to the Home Office and to UK Visas and they have explained to me more or less what I need for my application. It seems we have almost all the papers, but I can't help feeling nervous about it and I really want to make sure I get the visa.
Well, we have different proofs of our relationship, such as correspondence to the same address, emails between us when we've been apart, hundreds of photos,etc. However, just at the beginning of our relationship I was in Mexico for a couple of months, during which obviously we don't have anything with the same address. After that I went to the UK and we lived together but in a shared house with other students. From that house we have only one or two letters and bank statements, I don't know if that's enough! We have a lot more papers from the other places where we've lived, so that's ok.
In one month I'm going to Mexico and I will apply from there. At the moment me and my boyfriend are in France on holiday and we will go back to the UK in October, but we still don't have a place to live there. This last year we lived in York and now we will have to go to Nottingham so we still have to look for a place to live. For the visa they say that you should have adequate accommodation, so what am I supposed to say in this case, if we still don't have a flat? We think we will stay for a week or so with some friends while we find a flat, so I'm not really sure how to manage this for the application.
I would really appreciate if any of you have any ideas of you and I would be very grateful for any help. Thanks a lot!
