    My fiance is currently out in the US, and we're in the beginning stages of putting together the application for her to come over as my fiance. Right now we're looking into forming a date, both in our minds AND officially, for our wedding - as I know it's seen as evidence in a healthy fiance visa application.

    All I'm wondering is, does the visa become active as soon as it is processed, or does it come into effect as soon as she arrives here? I ask, because I plan to travel out one more time to bring her back with me, and to do something for the members of her family who won't be able to attend the ceremony.

    Not to mention, if the application itself goes super smooth and we find the date of activation to be more than six months from our booked wedding date... how will that impact us, without us having to rebook?

    "The validity of entry clearance and leave to enter are normally the same. There are two significant dates on the entry clearance, the 'effective' date and the 'expiry' date. In most cases, the 'effective' date will be the date on which the entry clearance is issued. However, some applicants may not intend or be able to travel to the UK immediately following their application and Entry Clearance Officers have discretion to defer the 'effective' date for up to three months after entry clearance has been authorised. Therefore, to prevent unnecessary applications for an extension of stay, Entry Clearance Officers should confirm an applicant’s date of travel. For applicants in long-term categories who are subject to either a qualifying period before applying for settlement, or to a limit on their total length of stay in that category (i.e. work permit holder and their dependants, UK ancestry, au pairs, and working holidaymakers), leave to enter should begin on the date they arrive in the UK (within the three month limit). This will ensure that the maximum leave to which they are entitled is given."

    Thank you so much, and one more thing... any declaration of intention to arrive after the clearance date, would my fiance notify them as part of the application (i.e. a covering letter) or would it be by other means?

    Thank you again!
