What is the current processing time for a UK spouse visa for a Thai wife?
Has anyone applied and recieved a UK spouse visa for Thai wife? Is it taking the 24 weeks / 6 Months as stated???
Answer summary
The processing time for a UK spouse visa for a Thai wife has varied among applicants. One commenter noted that a friend's marriage visa took about 12-13 weeks recently, while another pointed out that the official time is now stated as 24 weeks, likely due to the impact of the Ukraine war. There was also a question regarding whether applications are being made from within the UK.

OPIts taking 3 months just for Tourist visas. My Thai fiance knows people waiting
UK have prioritised Ukraine visas.
Spouse visa used to be 12 weeks, now Gov.uk saying 24 weeks. Same for a fiance visa to get married in the UK.

Thats not what it means mate. That means if your Thai Mrs is already in the UK. If she is in Thailand its 24 weeks for spouse (marry in thailand) or fiancee (Marry in UK) visas at the moment.Ste *******
