I was really hoping I’d hear back from my case worker this week, but I didn’t π It was last April, when my husband decided he wanted to return to the UK. We were boyfriend/girlfriend at the time, and had been living together for a couple of years, and it only seemed natural that I should go with! I figured with my job, I could probably get a work visa pretty easily, and it wouldn’t be any problem for me to come along, so that became our plan. I put in an application so I could get licensed to work in the UK, and he sold the house. He went ahead and left in July after selling the house, and I stayed behind to finish my credentialing process, as I thought it would only take 1-3 months at the time. I also needed to stay in the states because you have to apply for the visa in your home country. Before he left we decided to get married, in case something went wrong with the work visa, then we’d have a spousal visa to fall back on. We’d already been talking about marriage at that point and really didn’t want to get separated, so I happily went for it! I love him so muchπ I am so thankful that we did that, because the credentialing process for me to work is much harder than I originally anticipated, and my application got denied in February. I need to do some course work and reapply π So here we are now! It’s March, and we’ve been long distance for 8 months, and now we’re trying the spousal visa route. I’m really hoping this goes through, and gets approved, because we’ve been apart long enough, and I’m ready to live life with him again! I miss him soooo much!! It was just last month that we started the spousal visa, so I know I just need to be patient. I hope I hear back from them soonπ€
