Looking to apply for a visa to the uk.

[Guest adelaide15570]

Hi there wondering if anybody knew of any visa lawyers in adelaide, that can post my visa and advise us on it, telling us what to get etc. I am a British, and my boyfriend is from New Zealand, he is only 17 (as am I) and he wants to apply for a youth mobility scheme visa.. Also,we don't know what kind of visa to apply for after that.

thanks

Hi Rebecca! He will need to be 18 before he can apply for that visa

Here is the info on it. Its replaced the old WHV.

Have to be 18 when the visa is granted.

 

At the end of that I don't know what visa he would be able to apply for. I don't know he would be eligible for a partner visa as iirc you cannot apply for that visa off the back of this visa any longer. From what I can see in the PDF switching to any other points based system route is not allowed. His options may well be very limited.
