no that's not what I meant... my family are UK citizens, I am also a UK citizen. I can sponsor a US citizen moving to the UK who is my husband.

I didn't express myself clearly and I hope it's a little better explained here. I understand your situation in the UK. As a UK citizen, you can sponsor your spouse to come to the UK, that is not in question at all.

I'm sorry about the confusing post, I didn't sleep well last night and shouldn't really be posting without a clear head.

My comments about the Green card holder sponsorship, was in response to the quote below..

My point was in the US sponsoring someone can't really be done easily when on a GC.

Anyway most important thing is that I think that you are clear on what's going on.

Good luck.

I wasn't aware that co-sponsorship to the UK was an option. That said, I have not searched specifically, it's just not something I have seen.

You have to be able to sponsor to a level whereby the State deems you not at risk of being dependent on public funds. That can include wages, property and cash assests.

If you can prove yourself eligible I understand the process is still simple and fairly quick - weeks, not months/years like to the US. It's gone up a bit price wise though

Hi Emma, crossing my fingers for you to get it sorted out asap.

I am glad that you have your mum around to give you some support whilst you are sorting through all the paperwork and the list of things you have to do to get your husband over.

Keep him busy at his end as well, it will help his depression if he has something to take his mind off missing you.
