Fiancé Visa
The Fiancé Visa allows an individual to bring their fiancé into the United Kingdom to join them as long as they themselves have a settled status as a British citizen or permanent residence.
To have a settled status means that the individual is living in the UK lawfully with no time limit on their stay. If you are outside the UK and are returning to settle then your partner can apply for a fiancé visa to join you at the same time.
