Thanks kimmi i messeged frances to contact you any help will be most welcombe.I am sure the embassy just wants to make sure that our relationship is serious as we only met 11 months ago and i have only visited the once and there was limited letters and cards from me as most of the mail i sent never arrived.Do you think it will help if Frances takes along any mail i have sent since we applied and chat logs and western union receipts.I think all other dockuments are in order as i have my own business letter from my landlady.Both of us have never been married so no compleations there.We are so much in love and have commited to be together what ever the outcome but it would be hard to build a life for our future if i cant continue with my buisness in the uk.I just told Frances to be honnest with her answers as we have nothing to hide.Thank you again Kimmi for your help. phillip
