TB clearance certificate starts on the day your wife/partner takes the test, so if she passed the test on the start date at the IOM, she would have got 6 months
thank you for that Will

I almost forgot to mention that my wife has to go back to the clinic each month until the end of August, her next trips is for the 25th of May for further X-rays

We had to pay for another whole new set of applications for the Tb clearance certificate plus the extra cost of staying in Manila for 3 nights to have another sputum test each morning before she can eat her breakfast
It is a tough place to live in if you don't have a welfare safety net like we have here in the UK

I must Vote labour if we want to keep our NHS for the people. For I believe the tories will turn this country into a 3rd world place like the rest of the countries around the world if they get back into power again?
"Sorry for being political in here"

Also it is now almost 10 months since we last saw one another
I am wondering if I should go back there to see her soon as it looks more than likely this whole business could take until November before we will get her visa, that is if we will get it anyway?

I have already been over there twice before and will it increase our chances of a more successful visa application if I were to go there again?

I have been sending her a bit extra money to support herself, I have to honest with myself the journey is very tough and it takes forever to get there, not to mention the heat and discomfort of being in a strange place too.
I'm probably getting too long in the teeth for all this global trotting now
There are more question than answers
