very true. Im one of those people waiting for the result of the FLR(M). Do you think if like the relationship as bf/gf is short span of time like less than a year, its best to get married first? Im not sure but i think its one of the criteria on the visa assessment, the more convincing relationship is the time youve been together plus the other necessary documents like the required savings or yearly income of the sponsor, proof and so on.
