    Work Visa-Forced Marriage

    Does anybody know if getting married to somebody with a work visa would allow me to get a work visa?

    I think I have a couple of probables and one definite yes but I need to know if its worth while.

    i think marriage to somebody with a work visa will make you eligible for dependent visa which allow you to work also.

    If you are legimately married to someone with an Employment Visa then you have the right to apply for a Dependant Visa, which would give you the right to work.

    However, the Immigration Department does have to be satisfed that the marriage is genuine, and they can (and do ) refuse visa applications in cases where they do not believe it to be so.

    Thanks for that.

    I was only keeping her on her toes. Seven years and a big diamond will hopefully convince them.

    Funnie : they reportedly have a lightscope at immigration which will test the diamond and produce a valuation report for your wife.
