I know PIO is really about Poms moving to Aus but I've contributed my share of advice in the past so I thought I'd see if anyone can help me.
My English fiance wants to return to the UK. He's tried to settle in here but just isn't happy so I've made the big decision to follow him back to the UK.
I currently have Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK from my previous time there but in November this year I will have been out of the UK for 2 years, which I believe will invalidate the ILR. As we will not be ready to go until next year does this mean I will need to apply for a new visa? I should have no problems qualifying for a partner visa, particularly as we will be married by the time we apply, but I'm wondering whether I would have to wait until my ILR expired first?
Does anyone have any knowledge of this? And more particularly, could anyone please recommend a migration agent that I could speak to about my situation? If only I'd applied for British citizenship before we left but we didn't think we'd return! Such is life.
Thanks in advance.
