I had a feeling that civil partner meant same sex, oops! I'm male, girlfriend is female, so I guess we don't qualify for that! In regards to the "living" together for two years. It can't have been outside the UK right? Basically if I wanted to claim her as dependent, she'd we'd have to hav...
Hey everyone, thanks in advance for taking the time to read. For the HSMP previous earnings points, will it calculate based on a shared income? For example, if I was earning $30,000 USD or 15,000 GBP, and my girlfriend was earning $30,000 USD or 15,000 GBP, could we total it for 30,000 GBP and get t...
Unfortunately no grandparents from the UK =/. My great grandmother was from Ireland and my great grandfather was from Germany. Her grandmother was from Mexico and her grandfather from Germany =/. Already looked into that route, thanks alot though!
Have you been to the UK for a visit at any time? Your desire to move here scares me......... Maybe you were British in a past life. I think I must have been. The desire has been strong for a very long time. In fact I have very great, vivid memory and I remember in the 4th grade meeting a kid named ...

I am a US citizen that is going to spend the next 3 yrs doing everything I can to start the beginning of my UK path to citizenship at the end of the 3 yrs.
I want to live in the UK and raise my kids in the UK for dozens of reasons, but mainly the culture and government.
Dang Christophe. I was a little relieved at hearing you could 'somewhat' look for a job while on VV. I will only have a bachelor's and a few years of experience. Currently, I have 2 yrs of experience at a magazine publishing company. Can anyone further elaborate on what being in the medical field wi...
I'm probably wrong, but I thought I've read in multiple places that you can't have left the UK for more than 90 days. Anyone want to further elaborate?
Does anyone know? We're seriously debating going into the medical field with an Associate in Nursing Degree, but we want to know a little more about what it will yield. We're trying to figure everything out degree wise by 2 weeks when enrollment begins for next semester. So I'm in a crunch for resea...
Is there a decent demand for trainee solicitors? I was looking at the path of BA in English to LPC to Trainee Solicitor and thought it seemed interesting (and damn well paying.)
^^ - Haha yeah, definitely. My second choice outside of England is the Northeast, coincidentally the most similar to the UK. I can understand his desires to move there, but still see England as vastly superior! The trading of citizenship would be an awesome concept!
This is all very good to know. I am a little relieved at knowing that you can look for work while on visitor's visa, but you just have to be careful. In general do employers mind doing this? Having you go home for a week or two while they get you a worker's visa? How badly do you guys think the rule...
Strong allies? Only when it suits you guys, I guess...* OK. Firstly, your majors are not very "travel-worthy"...not like IT, Medicine, Nursing or Teaching. So, you'd need to have a great deal of work experience in order to get a work permit - there are so many graduates in a position simi...
Wanderer, I read somewhere that it was illegal to job hunt while on your visitor's visa. Are you sure you are allowed to apply and job hunt while in UK while on visitor's visa? I keep reading work permits are so hard becuase you have to basically be hired without even ever meeting the person, and th...
I've been to the workingintheuk.gov.uk page, it gave alot of general info, but I didn't find any specifics. The BUNAC seems interesting, but I'm honestly looking to make the pursuit towards citizenship. I know I may sound ahead of myself, but I am 100% sure I want to live in the UK permenately. This...
