After ten years of using a marriage visa, I am, this year, going back to a retirement Visa. Simply because it is sooo much less complicated. I got the sheet of requirements needed from immigration and my question is, nowhere on the sheet does it say all paperwork must be handed in as two copies as with the marriage visa. Is this so? Thanks in advance.
Answer summary
The user is transitioning from a marriage visa to a retirement visa and questions whether they need to submit two copies of paperwork for the retirement visa, as was required for the marriage visa. Comments indicate that generally, only one copy is needed for a retirement visa, unlike the marriage visa which may require two, although experiences can vary by immigration office.
