Maid from UK?
 
We are looking at sponsoring a maid from the UK. Is there anyone who has gone through the process? How long does it take?
Also is it true that you cannot sponsor a maid of the same nationality as the sponsor?

you'll probably fook up the ministry royally with that one.

"but why sir?"
"are you mad sir, you can screw a sub con for a tenth of that salary"
"does not compute sir"
"computer says no sir..."

whoops, yes it does look a bit dodgy in the low resolution... it was clearer ona bigger image!

Nope, no kissing going on... it's a still from a 1975 Hindi film - character on the right is dying in the other one's arms at the end of the final showdown between them and the baddie's men.
