American Wants To Live In UK - Help

If I was to say she was my Fiance could she come to live uk that way ?

If I was to say she was my Fiance could she come to live uk that way ?

If you somehow manage to get a fiancee visa through fraud and false pretenses... then, yes.   But the visa is for only 6 months and you will have to be married within the 6 months.   Is your real-life parter going to go for that?

we have an 18 year old who wants to come and live with us in the uk. I would like to know what she needs to do to come here and what visa etc she needs. She has adopted me and my paratner and calls u mom n dad.

I trying to think of any other way. Her family name is Bruice which she told me was of Scottish background. So somewhere along the line she would have ancestors here. Could we foster her ?

Maybe its time for you to consult an immigration lawyer instead of asking the same question here over and over.

Lola posted this in your other thread:

The girl cannot settle in the UK as:

a descendant -- her parents were not born in the UK

a spouse -- she's not married to a UK citizen

a fiancee' -- she's not engaged to a UK citizen

an au pair or working holiday-maker -- she's not a Commonwealth citizen

a domestic worker -- she has not been employed by you in a domestic capacity in the US

a singer -- she will need a work permit and as I suspect that a) she's not a professional singer and b) you can't prove that there's no one else in the UK or EU who could sing for you

an artist or composer -- again, I suspect she's not a professional

a tourist -- she can visit, but must leave within 6 months.  she may not be granted leave to enter for 6 months if it appears that she cannot support herself here or does not have strong ties to the US

If she will be attending university in the fall, she can come over after completing one semester on the BUNAC program, which will allow her to live and work here for 6 months.

She can also attend university in the UK, though, as I said in your other post, the cost may be prohibitive for an international student.

If she's not planning on going to university or her parents weren't born in the UK or somewhere in the EEA, her options are extremely limited.   

This post shows the most likely visas your friend could apply for and your friend's chances of getting it. You are not going to get answers from anyone else on the board that are different from these no matter what scenario you put forth.

Could we foster her ?

No, she is an adult.

As has already been stated, the only time an American citizen's ancestry allows them the right to live in the UK is if one of their parents is British.

May I ask why you're so desperate to get her over here?

Dodgy, Aimiloo, the word is 'dodgy'.  Come on, we're all thinking it!

jbly...as an immigration consultant who has been reading this thread with continued amusement, I think it is now time to nip it in the bud.

If your 'friend' wants to come to the UK, the only options are a) a student visa b) if she is currently a student then she could apply for a BUNAC.  You can't employ her to sing for you, as you wouldn't get a work permit.  You can't apply for a fiancee visa for her, as this is going to be an obvious lie if she calls you and your partner 'mom' and 'dad', and there will be no evidence of any kind of romantic relationshp (one asusmes from your posts).  The UK does not recognise adult adoptions, and basically I second everything that everyone has said.  Lola's post, copied below, was absolutely right.

I have no doubt that you will come back with more questions, but the chances are that you will receive the same answers as before.
