There are many types of family visa in the UK which allow an applicant to enter or remain in the UK on the basis that the applicant has a family member settled in the UK. That family member can be a spouse, fianc, an unmarried partner, child or other close relative. UK family visas typically fall into two broad categories: one for spouses and partners, and a second for vulnerable dependants i.e.
A marriage visa, also known as a spouse visa, allows the husband or wife of a British national or person settled in the UK on the basis of Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) to enter or remain in the UK. This same requirement also applied to couples who have registered a civil partnership. If you are not yet married but would like to enter or remain in the UK, you can apply for a fiance visa or an unmarried partner visa.
The partner visa, otherwise known as the de facto visa, allows the de facto (unmarried) partner of a UK-based citizen to enter and remain in the UK. The only condition that must be fulfilled is that the couple must have been in a committed, continuous relationship for a minimum of two years.
The de facto visa gives couples (both heterosexual and same-sex couples) the same rights and benefits as those who are married or living in a civil partnership.If you are engaged to be married, you are likely to be eligible for a UK fiance visa instead. A partner visa permits a two-year probationary period in the UK with the option of applying for Indefinite Leave to Remain or, subsequently, UK nationality after two years.

A UK civil partnership visa allows a same-sex partner in a civil partnership who is not an EEA national to settle in the UK with their UK or EEA national partner. To qualify for entry to the UK you will need to be granted clearance prior to your arrival. A civil partnership is a legal relationship registered between two people of the same sex.
A parent whose child resides in the UK can apply for an Access to Child visa which gives permission to enter or remain in the UK in order for them to have contact with their child. For the purposes of an access to child visa, this can either be in the form of a residence or contact order granted by a UK court, or a certificate issued by a district judge confirming that the parent intends to maintain contact with the child.

The visa application process can be stressful at the best of times, however working with Imperial Visas made the experience quite relaxing. From our first interaction, Ali made sure I understood my options and was always willing to answer my long list of questions. His friendly yet professional demeaour always made me feel at ease and meeting him for the first time on the day of my ILR appointment felt I had known him for years.
Working with Ada was also very pleasant. She was responsible was putting my application together and was extremely thorough when collecting my documentation. Her preparation

I recently received my ILR and this is the second time we’ve used Imperial Visa. I applied for the ILR during the middle of the Covid pandemic. Imperial Visa provided an excellent service and took our stress away and the process ran smoothly and all documentation was submitted digitally. I highly recommend Imperial Visa. Many thanks to Ali and his team.

We have used Imperial Visas services three times since 2015 and all three applications were successful. We'd like to say many thanks to Mr.Ayaz Ali for his excellent professional job. He was very patient in explaining the whole process of application step by step and answering all our queries in detail. He did a big job in making sure that all our documents are in proper order and we don't miss anything. Ali was always easily reachable and due to his support and assistance the process of getting UK visa was smooth and straightforward. We wish him to keep up the good work and will definitely come

Keep up the good work folks . Richard & Elsie
