This morning Dawn & I got up ridiculously early (before 6am!) to get over to the Home Office in Croydon. This was for Dawn to apply for her Missionary Visa to be switched to a Spouse Visa.
The big news is….Dawn is now officially a Temporary Resident of the UK!! Further leave to remain was granted, and Dawn has a brand new Residence Permit in her brand new Passport! We knew within an hour that the Home Office were to grant this visa, and it was a smooth ride all the way! We had all the documents they required (which wasn’t really loads) and no questioning or interviewing.
This all means that Dawn can now live and work in the UK for the next 2 years. In 2 years time, we fill out a different form and apply for permanent residency - and then hopefully dual citizenship soon after.
