Most family visa holders, such as partners on the 5-year route, can work and study in the UK, but the fiance(e) route has restrictions until you marry and switch.
Partners granted leave under the family route can generally work and study freely in the UK, which is one of the main advantages of this visa compared with some temporary routes.
The fiance(e) or proposed civil partner route is more limited: it is granted for a short period so you can marry, and you usually cannot work until you switch to the partner visa after the marriage. Always check the conditions printed on your specific visa decision before starting work or a course.
