A tad harsh. I had already explained that my UK bank had kind of screwed me over. I had spoken to them previous to my departure and informed them of the circumstance, THEY informed me that it would stick for 12 months, yet they cut it after five. When I came here I was kind of rushed, I had to come on a WHV before I became the big 3-0 and was no longer eligible.
Since then my girlfriend has us sponsored, I'm having the time of my life and we are now settled in our life. We want to stay and will be applying for PR in around 9 months, I've already started to pay off the debt, but these things last a while on file and my major concern was not being able to reside here.
Jill, I am vastly jealous that you have not made an error in your lifetime (except simple writing, it seems) and that you are able to look down on your pedestal and damn people who wish to better their lives.
Laura - Thanks for that. Good to know, appreciate the help!
Perthbum - When you say holiday, do you mean they can stop you coming back?
