Hi there, we just want to go back for a year to give our kids the chance to get to know their british cousins better. We don't even mind if my husband can't work as I plan to support the family, though I realise the job market is tough. Whats the easiest way? We just found out about the sponsorship rules so my mum is going to lend us some money but apparently it has to be in the bank for a year. Should my husband just come over on a tourist visa and Wait until I get a job and can sponsor him or will he get questioned at immigration. How long can he stay on a tourist visa and can he just go home once it expires then easily go back again. Me and the kids have british passports. I had no idea until I started looking into it that it would be so hard.... any help would be so appreciated, your hopefully, nicola
