Thanx to all 4 reading this. I am a British Citizean and my wife who is Nigerian has just applied for settlement at the Embassy in Prague, Czech Republic as she is currently there on assylum. Her interview is on the 29th of January. We met via the net in December 05 and I first visited her there in March 06 when our relationship became a loving one. We married in October 06. i would just like to recieve feedback on the documents we have in our file. I worry about this as it is so important to us to get it right so we can begin our proper life living together. It took us so long to apply as we were gathering the best evidence to be successfull and also we didn't know exactly what to use in the beginning.

Thanx again for taking the time to read. One thing I'm worried about is that on my bank statements from 1 or 2 i have been overdrawn £300 max. My last entry from 21st Dec shows £800 in my account. I have a basic net income of £1 800 a month. There is definetly no need for us to be requiring benefits as I can support my wife but I really worry the ECO will not see it that way. I really would like some feedback to all this.
Thanxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
