A woman calls in wanting to ask something about the marriage visa. She wants to know what the best thing to do is because there is such thing as a fiancé visa. The person she wishes to marry is actually in India. He was here illegally last September but he is now in India. He went to India with his girlfriend to marry her, she actually died there of natural causes and it is a real long one; I am trying to shorten it. Harjap asks how did you relationship develop. She says it has developed, it is there. Harjap says you went there and met him. She says I went there in November and this gets even deeper, he had a child, who I looked after in the UK for a short while and the DNA proved the child wasnt his so the child has gone to its maternal grandmother. He was going for a case and was going to get public funding for that but then realised he shouldnt do. Would that affect him to get a visa? Harjap says yeah it would. She says he hasnt received the public funding so he has left that. It also turns out it isnt his child but the plan is, Ive met him here in November and we wish to marry, what would be the best thing to do this. Harjap says I suggest you go out there and get married. She says ok and will it affect him that he was illegally here. Harjap says yeah 100%. She says how will this work out, I go out there and get married to him. Harjap says yep, I tell you what you need to do; its such a deep thing and we dont know all the circumstances on it and we dont have an hour to chat here, you really need to get some advice about this before you go out there gung ho and think you are going to marry him and bring him back in 4 weeks, because I will be honest with you, I just dont think it will happen. She says what is going to happen. Harjap says that you are going to bring him back quickly. She says ok, what because of the fact he was here illegally? Harjap says yeah. She says so then what will happen; will there be years of wait. Harjap says what you should do is consult a solicitor beforehand and get full advice on it after going through it A to Z of the story as there seems to be a lot to it than you can say on air. She says there is but the point now is we want to be get married and be together. Harjap says it is not something anyone can give you 5 minutes advice on and off you go to get married, you need to get detailed advice on this because it s going to be a tricky situation. She says tricky but you dont know about time limits. Harjap says well, its like saying how long is a piece of string. Without knowing your full situation, I cant really make an estimate. She says what would you need to know. Harjap says everything, from A to Z, stuff which you cant say on air (I wonder what that is Harjap). She says no, thats fine. If you want to ask me, ask as Im anonymous here. Harjap says regardless of that, I just havent got time to talk about your stuff on air as the show finishes in about 5 minutes. What you want his an advice session and thats not really going to happen here. The best advice I can tell you is to get a good solicitor and to discuss all this beforehand even before you do anything. She says it sounds from your advice that this is a long shot. Harjap says it might be, we need to know all the circumstances. Its not going to be easy is it? She says in the normal case, how long does it take. Harjap says it all depends on the circumstances, that is what I am telling you. She says from my side, everything is legit. Harjap says its not you they are going to look at is it. She says so that will go against him, its not something that hasnt happened to anyone else. Harjap says people do get through, people have done a lot worse and got through. Its got to be prepared properly. She says before going out there, what would I need to do, go and see somebody. Harjap says go and see somebody and get proper advice and then act on it. She says its not worth me just going out there and getting married. Harjap says its up to you; you take the risk, if he doesnt come back for 5 or 6 years, its your own risk. She says 5 or 6 years. Harjap says yep. She laughs. Harjap says it is not a laughing matter; people have been stuck out there for 5 or 6 years. Its up to you, its like saying there is a well in front of you and if you want to take a jump into it, oh will I drown (Harjap does an action with his hands, LOL), well it looks likely doesnt it, course you are going to drown. She says thats why I am asking. Harjap says thats why you have to go and get a proper advice session; its not something you can do in 5 minutes. She says an advice centre or a solicitor you mean. Harjap says from a solicitor, whos going to deal with it, a solicitor, whats an advice centre going to do (I thought you said advice session before, LOL). For law, you go to solicitors. She says yeah. Harjap says ok, thank you very much, to get your hair done, you go to the hairdressers.

They say the way you jump into a well, that is how it comes out. We will meet you next week, I will talk to you next week.

  • It is not something; tell me on the phone whether I should wear my bangles and go over there and get married to him and hes going to come over, the embassy will be really happy to see him. You need to get advice about it and not something on the phone unfortunately although you did try, I got to give you that. I will meet you next week, on Thursday Financial Matters comes with Chima, watch that as well. I will say a few hellos;

  • Description: (cont)

    Now lets go to another call. 3 calls have been missed; we will speak to them next week. The main thing is everything you are going to do, get advice before, dont do it Desi style. That caller before, you were trying to solve your problems on the phone, its not really going to happen, its a bit of a long thing, you need to see someone proper about it and get everything done properly.
