We did the honest thing and told Stephy's employer what had happened and asked for leave of absence. Boss was ok but when she talked to HR they told her to terminate Stephy's work contract.
Life is like a box of chocolates and i always pick coffee!

Maybe we should have lied and booked a holiday or career break instead rather than being honest.
Stephy did inform them on her job application she required work permit.(3 times)as she worked her way up in the company.
This is city council run care home you would think they would be up to date with the rules! ( our fault as well i know).
We are getting all the info together ready for the embassy in the Philippines and looking at plane tickets for Monday.
The home office are not looking for Stephy as we only enquired about a general problem filing in the indefinite leave to remain form and we did not give our names and as the work permit does not run out in her passport visa untill April 2008.
Oh well better get stuff ready, thanks every one for their support just wish my wife did not have to leave me, don't know how i will cope without her!
