I am not from the UK. It’s probably because the site is Poms in Oz so suspect there are more Poms (Brits) on this particular forum. . I’m sure there will be plenty of people from other countries also celebrating. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LBee Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 @KathyN I think this forum was originally for UK parents, hence there are probably a lot of UK citizens on here - I would imagine however Visas being granted will be for all applicants, regardless of the country they are from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I sure hope so. The requests being out of date order worry me quite a bit to be honest, since there doesn't seem to be a consistent trend to look out for.
