That's awesome - Congrats!

Did your Husband have an overdraft in his bank account and they called to ask you about it?  I'm concerned about my husband's bank account.  He's used his overdraft a couple times recently and I'm hoping it doesn't effect our getting approved for a spouse visa.

It shouldn't...my husband was constantly going into overdraft when I applied for mine. The UK use and perception of an overdraft does not carry the stigma and negativity that it does in the US. You shouldn't have anything to be worried about.
