Now let's look into the various aspects of the requirements listed above when you are British and your partner is Jordanian and you reside in United Kingdom and your partner resides in Jordan.Since your partner is a Jordanian national, they would need UK immigration status documents to live and work in the UK. If you are not yet British but have Indefinite leave to remain (ILR), Permanent Residency (EEA PR) or Refugee status, then your partner can join you on the Partner route and enter or remain in the UK legally.
We note that your partner is a visa national (Jordanian) for UK travel purposes. This means they would normally need to obtain a visa from the British Embassy or UK Visa office / Commercial partner office (VFS Global), prior to their travel to the UK.
