I met my wife in January 2007 online. We started out just as friends, and we were friends for a very long time, checking in on each other periodically. And it was this way for a while. But eventually things got serious, and in August 2011 we started a relationship. We talked 8 hours everyday, and I went to the U.S. in November and lived with her for 3 months. We got married in February. Now I'm home and I'm applying for the spouse visa. I'm scared to death that it will get denied. I cant be apart from her and I just want everyone's opinion to see if we have a chance. I love her so much.
Since I just got back from the U.S.A, I am unemployed and franticall
frantically searching for a job. Though she has been steadily employed and supported herself for years, her most recent job was as a nanny. So as far as the government is concerned, we are both unemployed.
She has a bachelor's degree, and she graduated with high honours, double majoring in English literature and Philosphy.
Now the reason I'm hoping for a "yes" is because my family has supported me financially on my 3 month trip to America, and they will 100% support me and my wife in the UK while we get on our feet. So they will sign statements that promise to support us completely. My grandparents have paid off there mortgage and own a £565.000 4 bedroom house where they have agreed to let us live.
So we're technically unemployed, but I have a family with the means to support us both
completely. I don't even know where to put that on the application.
Here are our supporting documents:
3 months of my bank statements( showing my family putting cash in my account)
6 months of hers
6 months of my grandfather's (who runs his own company and has a premium bank account)
utility bills, council tax, and deeds to prove that my grandparent's own their home in full
Personal letter from both of us
letter from her brother, my mother, sister, and grandparents affirming our relationship and our living together for 3 months
pictures of us together
love letters
wedding cards
I also could put the wedding video on a usb stick
she has 2k of savings
So I have no idea how to fill out the sponsor form when it's my family supporting us for now.
I'm sorry for all of this on my first post, I'm just worried sick. And the thought of not having my wife with me kills me. So any suggestions and advice would be much appreciated.
Will we be denied
Thanks in advance,
Sam & Sara
