I agree with Kelly, every situation is different, but it is a good idea to think about the whole process thoroughly, it makes sense to go for the right visa, take the time to get all the paperwork and finances in place, that way you’re not opting for the next best visa. I didn’t even know about the fiancé visa, I don’t think! I’m glad I didn’t know anything about it as it would’ve confused me even more at the time, it was stressful enough. I think it would be better to go for a settlement visa, one of the advantages/reasons why is that when you’re husband has been in England and married for a year, he can get his education cheaper. I don’t know about full time education, but my husband whose doing an ESOL course on Saturdays, practically paid nothing for it now, he did have to pay a percentage of the course fee when he first enrolled (2 classes) that was because he was only in the country for 8 months when he first enrolled, when he enrolled this summer he paid about £17 or £27. If a foreigner is in England and wants to enrol in a course, they are classified as foreign students and would have to pay thousands.
