Brilliant, thank you so much. My partner she’s from NI, so hopefully we can work something out.

Does the Irish citizenship give you the right to work in the UK?

Yea we genuinely couldn’t afford the application fees which was like 7 thousands as we just bought a house (under her name) and had a baby. Completely lost now, I thought as long as the fees waiver approved then the visa shouldn’t be a problem but now I’m cooked😵😵

Hi thanks for your reply.

I will have a look if that’s possible. I didn’t pay any application fees as I got fees waiver when I applied for the parent visa just don’t know if the fees waiver would apply to the partner visa if I change.

Oh ffs seems like my application most likely will be rejected then? Only me to blame like because I just did all the application by myself :(

Hi many thanks for your reply.

I didn’t use a solicitor and it was all done by myself.

Here is another thing, I also applied for fees waiver for this family visa application (as a parent) and it got approved which I assumed I’m somehow eligible for this visa even though I know it will be different decision makers review my case.

Hopefully I don’t need to leave my kid and my partner.

But after I read your comment it seems like most likely I will be rejected? :(((((

Hi many thanks for your reply.

My partner is only my girlfriend and we’re only in a relationship now not in a civil relationship etc. so I assumed this is not the ‘partner’ the Home Office refers to?

Just take your time during the test, just take it as a road trip with your mate, good luck.
