Dont get me wrong I do agree with what the government is trying to do BUT! there is no need to slap a £25000 minimum income on or make spouses that are already here stay for 5 years. All they have to do for god sake is sort the genuine ones out. I would have no problems supporting my wife and stepdaughter over here for 5 years under the new rulings. I just want us to be a family. Is that too much to ask?
