Terpe,

Sorry the waiting time was that my partner has an exam where she needs her passport... In the end we paid the 500 pounds extra and got the visa

So happy

Now i have one question - I have paid the health surcharge, on the ID card that will be in the post it state no right to public funds, but i guess she now has access to NHS?

If you could confirm, this would be a great help...

Thanks,
Chino

PS Make sure you fill in your application before the deadline - I overheard a Chinese guy get told that his visa was fine, but he is getting it rejected as he applied to late - he must collect his passport at the airport!
