TLDR : Answer Summary
A user seeking advice on applying for a non-O spouse visa from the London embassy encountered an issue where only the option for a tourist visa was available during the online application process. Community responses suggested trying different web browsers for better functionality and offered reassurance that proving marriage with documentation should ensure a successful application. Additionally, an alternative suggestion was to try the Hull consulate, although it was noted they were closed due to COVID-19.

If you’re married already and you have documentation to prove it, then there should be no problem at all to get a non-o visa. Good luck and all the best ! 😊

I had this issue

Try using a different browser. I think I used Internet explorer initially which gave the issue you described. When I switched to Edge I managed to get the correct options.

Shoddy web development i reckon.
