well lets just just say NOW then. save all the hassle. IF we apply on the 9th March - what MONTH is realistic to ask for for her to come over??? ALL my docs are ready - I cant go through all that hassle of compiling stuff etc again. it will all be out of date !?!
Just put a date three months ahead of the application date if you want to do it now. Is there a problem with her coming to the UK straight away?
Because if you apply by March 9 the expected travel date is no later than 8th of June 2017 so mention a date which is May or first week of June.
wow its all systems go - I understand she can stay for 2.5 years first off - is that true ??? not sure what happens after that.
I have some older members of the family who need looking after and she will get paid for doing it - so not a bad start - she is a fully trained nurse after all.
I know one thing - IF all this turns out as planned....I'll plan a get together if you can make it to LONDON...as a Thank you.
By the way - can she leave the country and come back in that time????? ie Go back to Philly to visit ???
