Some Visa Bridge Options for Love birds
Yes it is trure that through the technology we are so well-connected online, long-distance relationships have become increasingly common. For most of these couples, closing the distance is a top priority, but when visas and immigration laws are thrown into the mix, this can become a major obstacle. I have seen many couples’s faces many problems due to visa problems. In this article we will try to give some options to get your visa easily.
For that I thing first step is to have an understanding of available visas and their requirements. Although this varies from country to country, there are a few broad categories of visas which most countries have available.
Spouse/marriage visas
This is perhaps the most obvious visa for a long-distance relationship – if you can get married and provide proof of a genuine relationship, most countries will allow the foreign spouse to immigrate. Sometimes it’s not necessary to be married; in some countries, engaged couples or couples who have already lived together for a number of years are also eligible. Although, of course, living together can be difficult when you're not eligible for a visa allowing long stays in the first place.
Work permits
If you don’t qualify for a spouse visa, it might be possible to go the route of a work visa instead, which will grant the right to work in the country for the term of the employment contract. Some work permits don’t automatically include the right to live in the country, so a residency permit would also be needed. Getting a residence permit becomes much easier, though, once you can prove you’ll have an income to support yourself. Most countries require the employer to prove that no local workers could fill the position, which can sometimes be difficult for immigration officials to verify. However, if the expat spouse has a specialist skill, especially one that is in short supply in the destination country, this task becomes much easier.
Study visas
A study visa can be obtained after applying and being admitted to full- or part-time study at a university or college in the destination country. Once you've been accepted, you'll then need to prove that you can support yourself while studying. This would include proof of being able to pay study fees and living expenses. A full bursary might cover this, but there are a limited number of international bursaries available and there is usually fierce competition for them.
Not eligible
If you aren’t eligible for any of the above visas, or other visas that might grant the right to live in the country, you’re not alone. Strict visa laws are responsible for keeping many couples apart, but there are other options: Consider whether it might be easier to do have your spouse move to your country instead – look at both countries’ visa laws and see if there’s an opportunity there Set a date for a visit – having something to look forward to helps a lot when feeling lonely or missing your partner Never overstay on a tourist or visit visa, as this will hurt your chances of being granted residency later, and you may even be banned from the country Think long-term – is there something you can do now to begin the process of becoming eligible for one of these visas in future? Consult an immigration lawyer as they may be able to advise if there are any other options
