My fiancé and I will be submitting his visitors visa application soon. ( he will be visiting from the Dominican Republic) We are in a time crunch because I am two months pregnant and we need to get it done now as it takes 7 months for an answer. We will be married in March, but again, have to submit application before then for him to be here in time for the birth.

-should we mention the pregnancy and birth in the reason for visit?

-if we are married in March, but not now, he will not be able to put “visiting immediate family”

-do you suggest he find a lawyer to help him fill the form

Also another angle, we in developed countries look at the clients with compassion because they have low funding, always micro-managed, controled food and spending etc. whereas I have heard from staff from underdeveloped countries that people with these problem get 0 help or funding. People from underprivileged countries might look at these clients as “privileged” compared to the people they have seen back home. Is our compassion based on the comparison of our own quality of life?
