If migrants arrive in the UK via one of the partner channels and stay for five years or more, they can apply for ILR UK if they meet all of the eligibility requirements. As a partner, Appendix FM provides two paths to settlement. The 5-year and 10-year Partner Routes are the two options. If civil partners or unmarried spouses came in the UK and then married or went into a civil partnership, they can apply for ILR UK as spouses or civil partners. Your time spent on the 10-year partner route will not be carried forward if you convert to a 5-year partner route. If your conditions are effectively addressed in appendix FM, the partners can convert to a 5-year partner route if you are now on a 10-year partner. You can apply even if your existing visa is not about to expire. Regardless of whether spouses stay in the UK for five or ten years, the minimum term of leave is 2.5 years.

A recent UN study reveals in graphic detail how the UK government has targeted black and minority ethnic communities. A Special Rapporteur for the United Nations Human Rights Council reported on the situation of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia, and other kinds of racial and religious intolerance in the United Kingdom at the end of May. The report's conclusions are alarming, or to use the report's own words, "analogously gloomy." A combination of hostile immigration policies – relics of the hostile environment era – and austerity measures has resulted in an increase in racially and religiously motivated hate crime, racial profiling, and socio-economic inequalities in BAME (black, Asian, and other minority ethnic) communities across the board. Cuts to public-sector financing have been disastrous, as readers are well aware. Over the last decade, vital services have been reduced by up to 40%. As per the Special Rapporteur, these actions have disproportionately i...

The Guardian reported in July that a Yorkshire school was encouraging female students to hide spoons in their underpants to alert authorities that they were victims of forced marriage. This would set off metal detectors at airports and inform airport authorities that the girls were being transported abroad. Nazreen (not her real name) was born in West Yorkshire and was one of the ladies featured in The Guardian's research. Nazreen, then 13, arrived home from school to find a surprise party arranged in her honour to celebrate her own engagement. Her parents informed her that they were celebrating her engagement to her 19-year-old cousin from Afghanistan, whom she had never met. Nazreen elaborates: “I had a typical childhood up until about the age of nine, and I was a bit of a tomboy. However, everything changed the moment I hit puberty. My mother was the main culprit, assuring me that I was maturing and becoming a woman. My mother informed me that where I was going, I didn't nee...

Domestic violence victims' cries have been drowned out by England's World Cup triumph thus far. However, if they lose, local officials have issued warnings about an increase in domestic violence incidents. Lancaster University discovered that when England lost a match in the 2014 World Cup, incidents increased 38%, and this is typical of World Cup tournaments: the 64 reports of domestic violence in 2002 increased to 99 in 2010, prompting several forces to support the campaign ‘Give Domestic Abuse the Red Card' this year. More than 90% of domestic abuse victims are female, while only 5% to 10% are male. According to the national charity Safe Lives, 15% of black, Asian, or ethnic minority (BAME) victims – and migrants on a Spouse Visa UK - bore the weight of violence in silence 1.5 times longer than White, British, or Irish women. And, as we all know, silence is lethal. Suffering in Isolation The founder of the Migrant Women Association, Mirela Sula, stated in the Guardian t...

With the media fully focused on Brexit, attention to the Government's domestic agenda has predictably decreased in recent times. However, criticism of a pending domestic abuse bill has highlighted the intersection between victims of domestic abuse and persons with precarious immigration status, demonstrating the unavoidable implications of Brexit on all sectors of government policymaking. According to one research, 27 out of 45 BAME migrant domestic abuse victims were reported to immigration services by police forces in 2015-2016, most likely as a result of the Home Office's hostile environment policy at the time. Furthermore, it has been discovered that BAME migrant domestic abuse victims statistically remain silent for 1.5 times longer than their white, British-born counterparts — owing to concerns for their future in the UK in the aftermath of a Spouse Visa revocation following divorce. In a nutshell, the law takes a step forward by adopting the first statutory definition o...
