Hey there,
UK citizen here on IEC visa, mine expires this year although my American girlfriend has a 3 year visa which expires next year.
She is in a skilled position and under the conditions I seem to be able to get a visa that would last for the duration of her visa.
Now, we have to be proven to be common law and I understand there is an application for that.
However, do I have to submit that.. wait for it to be approved and then submit my application for the open work permit? Or is there a way to apply for the open work permit that also includes the common law application? That way I could substantially cut down the waiting time and send it all at once.
Thank you!
