I would like to think this can be a supportive place where people can vent about their frustrations whether they've been waiting a month or 10 months, whatever their circumstances. Yes, the process is harder for some than others, but it does put stress on all of us.
Fedup, I truly feel for you, but each person has a different experience of the hardship caused by the delayed decisions from UKBA which, in each of their own experiences, may be something a person feels the need to vent about for the sake of their own mental and emotional health. It's not their fault that they can work and you can't. Forums like this are kind of our only chance to vent to people in a similar situation who truly understand what it feels like to go through the process.
I'm on another forum where two of the people just got their visas after 10 months (also switching from a fiance visa with no right to work) and never once did they call down others who hadn't waited as long, were able to work, or whatever. They were, and still are, a source of encouragement for everyone there. Just saying...have some of this positivity you are calling for from other people.
CDNgirl, congrats - seems you've been lucky!
Merry Christmas or season's greetings to all.
I am the sponsor, so can work. I am positive
I am standing for those who can't work as they are waiting to get there FLR(M).
I know other people have reasons, but stop whining,when you can work in my country while waiting for a VISA. As I mentioned , there is more to life outside the UKBA ...start living and posting things that will make a difference to people on here eg: what exciting plans you have or being helpful with new information.
Great that those other two couples didn't once whine after 10 months..... They must be over the moon with there wait from a finance visa to a FLR(M) is over.
I feel for everyone that is in the "6months" + club...( from one of your post before) Or even those who has started this whirl wind of stress.
So Please don't say that I am negative....As that is a far cry from the truth.
Merry Christmas everyone.......
