The UK recognises same sex relationships in the same way as a spouse visa or unmarried partnership visa. This allows partners of a British Citizen, a person who is present and settled in the UK (or who will be coming with you at the same time to settle in the UK) to join their civil partner in the UK.
This application can be made from within the UK or from overseas. This will depend on the circumstances of your case. You should seek professional advice before making any UK visa application.
Once the visa has been granted, you should qualify for Indefinite Leave to Remain towards the end of the two year probationary period. You will still be required to show that you have been in a genuine and subsisting relationship throughout.
If you would like us to manage this civil partner application on your behalf, you should seek professional advice at an early stage, to ensure that the application is fully prepared and any relevant timing or immigration issues addressed.
