Ilr

[Takenoprisoners]

Thanks Terpe, some sound advice there... She has taken the L in UK test. passed that months ago..... My point was never about not extending time without approval,, what I was trying to say was, What if a person doesnt have the money, if thats a case to break up a family and send her back to phily, and leave a husband and child in uk, all because of 950 quid, its a bad state of affairs to do that.... I understand all about being able to claim benefits etc etc once ILR is granted, but I get them already.....
It costs a fortune[/B] to bring a filipino to the UK (VISA, MARRIAGE, ETC) Then you have to fork out more cash after 2yrs to stay indefinitely, then if you want to be naturalised that will cost more money.... seems to me its all about money .......Sad when you have to pay for a wife........ thats what it amounts to..........

s ... ALL of them. And many of us here would fully agree with you! But the sad fact remains, that - without exception - we've no choice other than to go along with Immigration Rules & Regulations. to "the Club".
