Hi Arthur Little!

It was lovely to hear from you. Thank you for your wonderful advice,quick response& information.much appreciated.i feel relieve.
To be honest,its my dilemna for a long time.The only thing is,sometimes for example,when applying for bank account,they want my passport and other documents (but cant show them the proper docs with my married surname on) and its still on my single surname.
Anyway,ill defintely heed your advice.,..of renewing my passport ahead of its expiration.
yeah,this year i need to be busy reading the life in uk book also.for the uk life test examination.i feel nervous now.will be nerve breaking.i havent read it yet.My spouse visa will expires on April 2012.Can u suggest when is the best for me to apply the Ilr,pls? And when to take the exam?so i can prepare myself and focus on it.
Very thanks in advance again.

More power and god bless to u and ur family!
