Ohio to UK
« on: October 19, 2010, 10:06:37 PM »
Hello! I just married an englishman and I am planning on moving to the UK in the near future. We just got married a couple weeks ago but have been dating over a year. We are in the beginning stages of me getting a marriage visa (after I get my name changed over here) and any advice would be very helpful!

Thanks,
Katie

Welcome to UK Yankee.  You will find friendly people and lots of answers to your questions.  You've come to the right place. Where in Ohio are you located?  I am from the westside of Cleveland.

Welcome to UKY and congrats on your marriage.

Any specific visa questions should probably be posted in the Visas section - you're more likely to get a response there.  ;)

Welcome to UKY Katie...ask any questions you have, we've all been there and done that (well most of us) and some of us (like myself) have done it a couple times and when are a glutton for punishment we go the US Visa route as well (in the middle of it at the mo myself) so there's always one of us about to answer any questions you may have.

Heh, another Ohioan! Lots of them here! Welcome! :)

I grew up on the westside of Cleveland (North Olmsted, to be exact)

I just moved to the U.K. in August. Things are going well so far :)
