Mailed off my spousal visa today !!
« on: September 02, 2015, 04:04:26 PM »
Just left the UPS store and I feel sick!!! I know I had every last piece of information in there but I'm just nervous! I did a recheck before I stuck it in the envelope to be mailed off. I have the tracking number and will be checking that thing 24/7... I also am hoping for the visa back in my hands by September 26 ( I did purchase priority)
It is what it is if it's not but I'm really praying for things to work out. Good vibes and prayers for me are appreciated! I can't tell u how thankful I am for this forum! I will keep everyone updated :)

Best of luck to you, timeline buddy!! My husband should have all my documents tomorrow, and we will be sending them off to Sheffield on Saturday. Of course after overthinking everything since I let go of my documents yesterday, I realized I made 2 minor mistakes on the application. Typical haha. But luckily they can easily be fixed.

I wish you the best of luck with your application and I hope that you get it back by the 26th which is my birthday, maybe its good luck? haha :) Try and stay calm, says the one who is having the same issue lol.

Under question 1.3 for other names, I didn't enter in my maiden name. I just wasn't thinking I guess. And then for the English language requirement question, I ticked box "yes" saying I was exempt, but I technically am not exempt, I just meet the requirement by being a US citizen - this one however, I don't think I need to correct since they will clearly see my US passports. Nothing I am worried about at all really. Will have my husband write the mistake of the maiden name on the application and be done with it :)

And thank you!! Just have to let it go and hope for all the best!

Lots of luck to you!! I'm hoping to be only a few months behind you as I just sent off for Hubby's citizenship yesterday. I understand the overrunnin over thinking on the documents and questions. Here's hoping September is a fast month for immigration!!
I am a North Carolina girl born and raised, yes I love sweet iced tea, Texas Pete and biscuits and gravy....but England is where my soul feels at peace and I can't wait to get there.
