i try not to judge people, not without knowing the fully story or having walked in their shoes. thou i don't support people who bend or break the rules, as it is unfair on those who go by the book. but the lady has asked for help, and if she gets her visa it will be becuase of immgration law not becuase of me wishing her good luck
i wish everyone good luck, life too short to be a grumpy

, and before anyone starts, i'm not saying you are

, but have you ever made a mistake or done something you shouldn't have

and did anyone ever help you out ?
as for defrauding the gov, its ok for well paid MP's to commit fraud, but not ok for someone getting paid a few £ an hour.
anyway like it or not, she will probably get her visa, shes been out of the uk more than a year, left at her own expense.
if you want to do something, complain about how unfair the system is, why is it easier for a european living in the uk to bring their wife here, and more difficult for a brit living in their own country to bring his wife here..

and tell me if your gov ever bother replying to
how unfair the system is
