Law / Visitor In Love with a Polish girl, UK marriage/Polish residence question [17]
Hello, Im a Mauritian nationality with a permit of permanent residence for South Africa as I spent 12 years of my life there. For some personal reasons, I got divorced. hence my wife, well shall I say x-wife and kids are still base in SA and will never ever never leave SA neither for Mauritius nor for UK or any part of the world for that matter.
A while back I have decided not to hold on any further as I am only fooling myself base on the facts that she has moved on with her life. (Hard to believe, but it is true that woman are stronger that man sometimes)
I am sorry about the details, its just that I have read some of the nasty reply if you know what I mean.
Anyway... I am now going out with a Polish girl with the most amazing charater and all I wanted to know is....
a/ Can I get married to her while I am in the UK. I don't mind marrying her in Poland but my entire family mum dad etc are in the UK so it will be less cheaper for me to arrange a wedding here.
b/ If I can marry her in the UK, will I be able to apply for Polish residence while in UK as she don't intend to go back Poland because of her job. (It's only issues over issues)
c/ if I am entitle to apply for Polish residence from here, will I be able to work in the UK as I can't bare to sit at home.
Pls note Im on a visitors visa at the moment.
