Wow, they were swift replies, thank you both very much. So the skilled Visa is what my partner should apply for? Ive been informed that she can also apply for a self sponsorship PR visa? is this an actual visa or is it the same thing as skilled visa?
Regarding living together: So we currently have separate rental apartments although we are moving in with each other in three weeks as I've already handed my four notice of moving out. We have been together for 18 months, we've been on one big holiday to a luxury destination for two weeks which can be backed up and have been on my day trips which can be backed up with photos and park entrance tickets etc.
We have professionals from doctors to Police officers that will vouch for the validity of our relationship.
We are worried that with my re entry ban that lasted from Oct 2013 - Oct 2016 will be the reason I am refused on her visa. What is the common theme for this situation please?
Much appreciated
