Is the spouse visa process similar in the UK as in Poland?
No, the spouse visa process in the UK is not similar to that in Poland.
- UK: Requires the sponsoring partner to be a British/Irish citizen or have settled status, both partners to be over 18, and proof of a minimum income (£29,000/year). The initial visa is granted for 33 months, with possible extension and a path to permanent residency after five years.
- Poland: Foreign nationals married to Polish citizens apply for a temporary residence permit electronically. Permanent residence is possible after at least two years of residence on a temporary permit and three years of marriage. Specific financial requirements are not detailed.
The eligibility, financial requirements, and timelines differ significantly between the two countries. If you need guidance based on your specific situation, please contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
