First Post / Introduction
Hi, there,
Hope this post is in the right place.
I am a Canadian - Brit who is sponsoring my UK spouse Outland (we are both in the UK).
Spouse came to Canada on a Working Holiday Visa in the 90s. I had planned to go to the the UK on a working holiday visa after university and was granted one when we met in Canada by accident. I came to the UK and eventually, we got married. Wedidn't leave Europe - moved around, before coming back to the UK: life went in a different direction, as I thought we'd only be gone from Canada for a couple of years and now it's been over twenty!
We always said we would go back to Canada and we are ready now. Well, ready to wait, it would seem, as coronavirus is delaying IRCC / CIC processes by significant timescales.
If we don't get approved or something changes, I guess there is still the Republic of Ireland, as an option.

Thanks very much!
So far, no questions, other than how to find patience.

Going back seems a bit of a ways off.
