Oh yes, it's definitely changed, the UK has become a land of rainbow and unicorn paradise, whatever the relationship is, it is recognised.

@Michael *******

Yes, marriage is not an obligation for visa, an 'existing and genuine' relationship suffices.

@Michael *******

Not the UK, there is absolutely no difference in 'rights' by marriage, even when children are involved.

@Bill *****

Other option is go in and try to do the report on the earlier of the dates, worst thing that can happen is a wry smile and told to come back in a few weeks. Cheers

I would assume it is 90 days from issue date of the actual extension which is what the stamps in my passport suggest.

It might be worth asking immigration directly if it's not too much of a hassle to go in to do so?

Is the confusion that its a multiple entry non O marriage visa rather than an extension by marriage?

@Dustin ********

Earlier you mentioned about a farang 'keeping his land'. Clearly you are leasing which should be fine although the sister could legally sell the land and pocket the cash leaving you to deal with the new lease owner. How likely that is I have no idea.

@Roland ******

No, you can make an usufruct at any time if both parties are agreed. It's nothing to do with a prenup. It must be registered with the local authorities but once it is, it becomes a very strong influencer in any future dispute. You cannot use it to own land but you can use it to retain property costs etc. The bigger issue is the time it may take to get through the courts.

@Dustin ********

So you opted not to use a legal document and instead put your money in someone else's hands? O....... K

You're forgetting God gave her brothers and uncles often quite willing to help you with your leadership skills.
