    Fiancé Visa >> Is A Provisionally Booked Wedding Date Required Before Visa Is Issued?

    Hiya,

    I'm in the process gathering all the paperwork / documents together which are needed for fiancé visa application which will then by sent to my mahal in the Philippines.

    With regard to the fiancé visa application, do I need to show that I have provisionally booked a date at my local Registry office here in the UK?
    Or is this something which can be done when my good lady is with me here in the UK?

    I suppose in other words, do the Visa Application Staff / ECO want to see that a provisionally booked wedding date has been arranged in order for a Finacé Visa to be issued?

    Many thanks,
    Dave

    Personally, Dave ... I've always felt it was a bit much to expect Fiancee Visa applicants to provide a firm booking - especially for a Wedding Reception - but I think it would do no harm to book a provisional date with your local Registry Office ... as the latter can be far more easily altered to tie in with a couple's changing circumstances.

    Steve's and Mike's responses differ ... but it's worth noting that their partners both applied successfully!! Goodluck.

    There was a post on here recently concerning this subject. Sorry can't find it just now.
    Anyway, the applicant was given 3 weeks (by ECO) to provide supporting evidence that
    a wedding was actually being planned within the Fiance visa validity.
    I don't remember the outcome, but I'm sure a detailed search will locate the posting which lists things that can be done to provide supporting evidence.

    Thanks for the replies guys!
    Just to be on the safe-side, I've contacted my local Registry Office with regard to making a provisional date. As Arthur says, it's certainly not going to do any harm including proof of provisional booking with the other visa application documents.

    Thanks again,
    I may well take up the offers of further assistance
    Cheers,
    Dave
