What happens at port of entry?

I'm flying into Heathrow with my fiancee visa, arriving around 10pm!   

So... what happens?  Anything different when I go through the lines after getting off the plane?  Anything I should expect?  My fiance will be picking me up at the airport.  Can he expect a long wait?

Thanks! 

It really depends on the IO.  Mine asked if this was my first marriage and where Richard (DH) was.  I said it was my first marriage and that he was right behind her and she just reminded me of how to apply for ILR and waived me on through.   

You might get asked whether or not you've been married before and if your fiance is at the airport to pick you up.  I doubt you'll run into any major interrogations or delays.

Good luck! 

Don't know what will happen to you, but I was greeted with a confused IO that promptly leaned over to the next IO and ask, "So what do we do with American fiancées?"

That's a bit worrying, Cait!  Geez.   

I never had any trouble on my fiancee visa.  THe IO just said, welcome to the UK and congratulations. 

I"m sorry, I know that this is a serious question about a topic of concern, but, is it just me, or does this just sound like a double entendre? What happens at port of entry? Need we ask?

For me, it was super duper easy, they didn't ask any questions or anything, and I even had a "black mark" so to speak because I had been interrogated & nearly sent back to the US several months earlier when trying to enter on my passport alone. Fiancee visa in hand, and I was good to go.

I was asked why on earth I would want to move from NYC to England, then I got a wink and a stamp!

I got stamped in Dublin then went on to Edinburgh to meet my fiance. I didn't get a wink or a congratulations after they asked how long I'd be staying The officer just looked at my passport with that big beautiful visa in it and smiled and said "oh!" But no questions were asked.

Trust me when I say, you have no cause for concern Shell.  You will be fine.

Do you ever wonder if they feel like God when they approve or deny people?
