Hello Cryingbaby! I think you were just going through a cycle in your relationship.

Trials are spices in our life. Sometimes is wonderful and sometimes it’s a bit rough.

Wow! That is so nice to hear that you are to start with your new job. Share with us your flr experience please.

I wish you all the best.

hi guys..thank you all..anyway, we applied FLR by post..i went to the homeoffice website and printed out the FLR(m) form, collected the documents required like my passport, 2 recent passport-size photographs of myself and 1 passport-size photograph of my partner,marriage contract,his decree absolute to prove that he is free to marry, documents showing that he is present and settled in the UK( his passport and income tax coding)we also submitted evidence of his finances( 6 months bank statement, payslips) and lastly, our payment in postal order(£395)..All the documents we submitted were original. we post it to the following address :

Border and Immigration Agency
Leave to Remain - FLR(M)
PO Box 495
Durham
DH99 1WR

3 days after posting it, we received letter from homeoffice informing us that they received the application. Then we just waited and kept ourselves busy in other things..i did my appointments for the national insurance number, making cv's, applying jobs online and taking assestments online too..and finally after 18 days, ive got my visa and all the other documents..Same day, Royal Mail called me to inform that i passed the online assestment and scheduled me for a job interview. As a preparation for the job interview, we bought smart attire,.. i believe first impressions last.. What they see is what they get. So we need to impress them.we opened a bank account for my wages, i also researced about the company, the position im applying and planned my journey for that day so there will be no further delays..During the interview day, i was relaxed, i never felt nervous, i was so confident that ill get the job..Thingking positively helped me so much not to fidget in the job interview..the question were a bit hard for me, because its not the same with the job experience that i got. But being smart and prepared always helps.. I am so happy coz its a permanent job with a good pay and the hiring manager told me, ill go far in their company..

So that's my experience with the visa and job struggles here in UK..hehehe.. Hoping that everybody will have the same outcome with mine.. This site has been so handy with us.. We all learn from experiences of others who shared their journey on their visas and employment... Just relax and take it easy..i wanna say thank you to mu hubby who supported me all the way..

Our next plan is to ammend my passport.. Still gathering info right now.. have a great day to all the members..
