That's correct I'm British she's on spouse visa.... Unfortunately at this time I don't have a job either, but I am being optimistic and hope to get a job within a month! That's why I planned in coming back together even though I could not afford to go as long as I wanted to - due to looking for a job.

Hello and thank you. I am british other than by decent.

Thank you John, She is certified to teach TESOL, so her English is pretty good - perhaps we can show this certificate and waive the TESOL test, but it's not a problem for her whatever.
