Hi joebloggs, nice to hear from you again. Yes, its a nice new new, lucky_owl. :D Yes i was very stressed ever since i submitted my documents, so many worries. Worried if i filled in the application form correctly, worried if i have all the necessary documents, worried if i supplied enough evidence, worried if my previous visa refusals would affect my present application, worried if everything was in order, etc etc.

But now, things are fine. My baby inside my tummy can now relax after mommy was giving her/him so much stress. Thank the Lord. :):Hellooo:

JI&MA: Yes i was in cloud 9 when i opened and saw my visa. :D Im planning to fly to uk in november, my husband will come to philippines to pick me up, it would be difficult to fly alone as im pregnant. :rolleyes: I will be in wales. How about you jiri, where are you in uk?

To ross: Well, i supplied the documents needed for spouse visa just as what is stated in the checklist. But these are the papers i submitted:

7. 6 months bank statement of my hubby from 3 different bank accounts
8. Gas statement bill of hubby
9. Registration Certificate of my husband's own private company
10. Corporation tax of hubby
11. His tax payable
12. NSO Marriage Certificate
13. My NSO birth certificate
14. My husband's birth certificate
15. Emails since 2007 to 2009
16. Our wedding pictures
17. Email from my parents in law
18. Divorce Absolute from my husband's previous marriages
19. Certificate of No impediment for Marriage
20. Itinerary travel of my husband to the philippines
21. My voter's certificate
22. My NBI clearance
23. Western Union receipts
24. Hotel bills when my hubby stayed in the philippines

Congratulations! 9 days , that was really quick! :D

i think i know what happened to get it in 9 days :Erm:

they have 3 piles of visa apps, a pile for those who have been waiting upto a month, a pile for those waiting upto 2 months and another pile for those waiting 3 months or more..

there was a big blue bottle fly in the office and one of the case workers picked up your app off the top of the pile of those waiting upto 1 month, and swatted the fly with it :NoNo:

but they put your app on the top of the 3 month pile by mistake :doh, and becuase they process the 3 month or more pile first, your was picked up off the pile and proccessed within days

thank god for that fly, he gave his life for your visa :bigcry:

well anyone have a better story :Erm:
