Date of ceremony : ha! Wishful thinking !!!!
Additional info asked by HO mid Feb. Huge folder sent 5th of March. No news since.
To note I sent originally data based on 3 years residency as I was under the impression that 3 years was the requirements for foreigners married to a British citizens. Apparently not for Europeans! It is 5 years!
I had to prove 5 years of residency and active work and earnings! In between that period of 5 years I had to spend almost a year commuting between UK and Brazil as my husband was sent by his company to open an office in Brazil. So I spent a lot of time out of the country between 2011 and 2012. During that period I liquidated my Limited Company (early 2012 after paying all tax liabilities).
So I sent a massive folder with docs about all my work since 2008 to date. Mainly self-employed as I am a contractor in IT. I also included all documentation regarding HMRC, National Insurance for last 6 years and my husband contract regarding Brazil period.
Absolutely no news since, and I half expect to be rejected although I will appeal. I am not sure either but I would think that spending lots of time out of the country due to work commitment is allowed?
I live in hope!
