Help My fiancee is about to get P.R. but?
PLEASE HELP and Thank You for taking the time to read my problem
Answer:
I take it that Rosa is in the UK on HSMP, and about to get Indefinite Leave to Remain. ILR would be lost after two years' absence; and a claim for UK citizenship requires that the applicant be in the UK legally for five years (three years if married to a UK citizen, that the last year be with ILR, AND that they be outside the UK for no more than 90 days in the last year, and 450 days in the five years (270 days if three years apply).
If she is getting ILR in November, she could apply for citizeneship in November next year if she is still resident. The application would take some time to process, and she would have to pass a stupid test about "Life in the UK" as well as demonstrate a certain level of English - I'm not sure, but she may already have had to take the test to get ILR, as the law is changing at the moment.
After four years of marriage living abroad, if you returned to UK she could apply for entry clearance as your wife.
I think getting citizenship would make life considerably easier in terms of not having to make any further expensive and hassly applications to the Home Office. Also, having the passport would mean that your wife would benefit from UK government protection in the event of any problems in other countries, which does not really apply if she only has ILR (see Guantanamo).

Good luck
immigration is tricky and at this present time he law may not be on her side considering the current events. Is there anyway you guys could get married sooner?
Hell, if you can't get back into the UK, just go to Mexico and sneak into the good old USA! We've got millions of illegals here already, so what would a couple more matter! You could get a job with a lawn service, and you could have a couple of kids with your new bride. Then you can get on the WIC program for free milk, and get an old Chevy to tool around in. Believe me, its a great life! Happy travels, and see you in Chitown soon!
