Hi... I'm new here
« on: June 11, 2018, 11:19:15 PM »
Hello UK Yankee Forum,

I'm new here. In the middle of applying for a spouse visa to go live with my wife in London.

I'm currently in LA but really a New Yorker.

Cannot wait to be in London! This visa application has got me panicked - I have a bunch of questions that I'll ask on the visa and immigration chat.

Thank you for being here... finding this site just lowered my panic index by several degrees.

Look forward to being a part of the community.

Milky
