Spousal Visa

A Spousal Visa allows the spouse of a citizen or permanent resident to join them in their home country. This visa is essential for couples wishing to live together permanently and facilitates the process of family reunification. Below is a detailed guide on the requirements, application process, and frequently asked questions regarding spousal visas.

Eligibility Requirements
  • Legal Marriage: The applicant must be legally married to a citizen or permanent resident of the country they are applying to.
  • Genuine Relationship: The relationship must be genuine and ongoing. Proof may include shared finances, joint property, and photographs.
  • Financial Requirements: The sponsoring spouse must demonstrate they can financially support their partner, meeting the minimum income threshold set by the country.
  • Accommodation: The couple must have adequate accommodation where they can live together without relying on public funds.
  • Language Proficiency: Some countries require the applicant to demonstrate proficiency in the official language.

Processing times vary by country and the complexity of the application, but it generally takes several months to a year.
