'Indefinat leave to remain' on the bases of marriage (need advice)?

I applied for ILR as a spouse through solicitor but the HO kept my all documents a week ago saying that '; Your application is valid but there are further enquiries that need to be made on your case and as such your application has been passed to a team where these enquiries can be made.'; I been given visa for two years after a long interview of me and my wife. My wife is 25 years older than me and she has living in job with her employee. She lives about 30 miles away from me and just come home on weekends. I want to know that what kind of enquiry they can do. Can they call for interview again? or they can do personal visit? I changed my address as well after submitting my application because landlord needs the house, should i inform to home office about the change of address? i m much worried about. any suggestion or experience will help me. THANKS'Indefinat leave to remain' on the bases of marriage (need advice)?
You already passed the tests for the 1st 2 year Limited Leave to Remain. So in principle there is only one test they need to do now. That is prove that you live together as man and wife for all the 2 years and still do now.





Working for 4/5 days in another town, these days is not unusual, but is going to cause them to look at it and double check that you do live together when not working. I trust that supplied letters, council tax, bank statements and other documents to show that you both 'live' at the main address (yours) and use that as your contact point. Using a common bank account also helps.





The checks they MAY now do is to


- ask for more documents from you both (like the ones you supplied already)


- check her employer requires her to stay during her 5 days.





I would not worry, it may takes some time like 2 years ago, but they have to find something really wrong to refuse ILR. The worst they may do if you are together is give you a longer LLR (a FLR Visa).'Indefinat leave to remain' on the bases of marriage (need advice)?
If they say they need to make further enquiries, it's because they have reason to believe you do not have a valid marriage and you may be committing marriage fraud solely for the purpose of staying in the country. Your age difference is already a red flag, but the fact you don't live together is the biggest issue. They can visit you, your wife, speak to her employer, your neighbours, family members - basically anyone they want to make sure you have a valid marriage, not just a marriage of convenience so you can stay in the country. It is going to be difficult to prove that you both married for love when you don't even live in the same town.
You should inform the Home Office of your change of address immediately. Otherwise, they may believe you are trying to avoid being interviewed.





The HO may call you both for an interview, or arrange for a home visit to establish that you are married. As long as the application is valid, it shouldn't be a problem. However, the HO are very thorough, so it may take some time to make the final decision.
Your wife's old enough to be ya mom!!!! huh!! surely it will raise a red flag in the home office. It raised my eyebrows for sure!!!!! made me wonder whether u married her to get citizenship. I dont know u so cant comment but that's my first impression.


how can u be married couple when ya dont live together? i mean its not uncommon, but given your case, this is another red flag.
you got no chance. the border force will take your wifes age into consideration and the fact that you are not a genuine couple, so hopefully you will get deported
I don't wish to be rude but you have a solicitor, you are paying this person good money to do the paperwork for you. This is a public forum, there are not necessarily any solicitors or immigration officials using it that are willing to give free advice, all you will get is abuse, random opinions %26amp; if you're lucky someone who has been through the process already. Email your solicitor with your concerns %26amp; questions.





One one point I can advise you, yes, you need to inform the Home Office you've changed address.
