Hope someone can help with this scenario:
British national married to pakistani man, who is a HK perm resident.
They now wish to live perm in the UK.
Can the woman who lives/works in HK apply for this whilst still living/working in HK or does she have to be in the UK in order to do this.
The man has already been granted a visit visa which is still valid for another 4 months - should they apply straight away or wait for the visit visa to expire...will this impact their case in anyway??
Have already been on the website and found it confusing plus sent an email to the equiry id but as of yet have not had a response.
Any helpful suggestions gratefully received as the woman now desperately wants to go home but not without hubby.
Ta :)

The British national is entitled to apply for a dependant visa for her husband to enter and stay in the UK whilst both are in H.K., once the visit visa expires.

So, they can only apply once the visit visa expires???
OK, this is just confusing as they've been told that they can apply straight away by someone else, even if his visit visa isn't expired!
Anyone else have some wisdom or personal experience to share!

Dear all,
The information given is very useful, but i need more information.
We (me and my wife) are also going to apply settlement visa from hong kong. My wife has British passport. Since we both are working, do we need to resign before application or after approval of settlement visa. And in case after approval, we want to stay in hong kong for more time, settlement visa will be valid or not.
Would appreciate your prompt reply.
