| Jul 31, 2021 at 17:29 | comment | added | phoog | @RobertColumbia from the point of view of getting married in the UK (and certainly not in Gibraltar, for that matter) I don't think it makes a difference whether the US fiancee has an actual Standard Visitor Visa or visa-free leave to enter. Is there some difference that I am unaware of? | |

| Jul 31, 2021 at 17:03 | comment | added | phoog | @canonacer although she is wrong about the barriers to getting married in the UK or US, both of which would have been possible, had they wanted to do it, without needing a fiancee visa in either case. She did mention other reasons in addition to the supposed barriers, so maybe they would have made the same decision had they understood the situation correctly. | |
