    Hi Angelbird,

    Congrats to you and your wife!!!

    I would advise you and your wife to read previous postings on this site and also Pete's site. Most of us here went through the same situation as you, burnt midnight toil religiously reading all of the facts, advice and opinion of others, and followed what we think and believe useful and relevant in our respective application.

    Prepare the required documents properly, and most importantly, practice, practice and practice for the interview. Try not to assume you will get rid of an interview, but be positive.

    Good luck!!!

    Rands

    hey thanks everyone. wow i wish i had discovered this site a year ago! ive found the information and the expeirence of others on this site priceless. i must confess that i've been a tad too relaxed about the settlement visa process. my wife and i have put all our collective energy into the marriage preperations and in all honesty have only turned our attention to "the next phase". like many others on this site i'm now a worried man lol .... but its a welcome wake up call. evidence of our relationship being at the top of my worry list..

    hmmmm....just watched my wife eating a banana online ,kiddin'. but on a more serious note,we hav'nt given evidence much of a thought. because we are always online we only email after a tiff when one of us signs out and refuses to reply to calls or txts.as for letters,she has sent 4 plus a few postcards. i hav'nt bothered since my first one did'nt arrive. could this be a potential problem for us?

    As long as you fill the form correctly, supply plenty of proof, it can be a fast 'n' painless process these days.
