I hold a British passport and am thinking of moving to the UK next year. My domestic partner does not have an EU citizenship - we have been partners for 4 years and have the documents to prove it (her work place required us to sign documents back in 2003).
I wanted to know if domestic partnership grants any immigration rights to heterosexual partners. If I get a job offer in London, will she be able to join me and find a job legally there?
I know in the US one has to be legally married, while in the Netherlands domestic partnership is sufficient. Couldn't find the english regulations.
Thanks a lot
Answer:
If you and your partner live outside of the EU then your domestic partnership is not legal ground for her residing in the UK.
You rather need to apply for a Fiance VISA come to the UK, marry within 6 months and then have her apply for 'Leave to Remain'. At this point she could work and receive benefits.
Why do people care more about the number of "points" they get here rather than the actual issues that face us
