Anyone have a great forum like this about moving to the UK?

 

My husband came to the US as a green card holder in 2014 as my husband.

He is now a US/UK passport holder and so is our children.

I am an US Passport holder. 

 

Looking to see if there is more info than what is on the UK site on guides and forums on how he can apply for me from the US.

Main issue moving would be him meeting the sponsorship requirements, well that is the issue I see mentioned most often.

 

At least it is much quicker and the forms are more obvious.

I actually think we will be OK. We will either get the money from the sale of our house or his job will transfer him and he makes about 38,000 pounds a year.

Good luck with it! I went through the visa process with my (US) wife and we lived there for a year and a half before moving to the US - the process was much faster, almost all online, just had to mail her passport and a few supporting documents to the office in NY - six weeks later we had a visa in her passport, and a pink Biometric Residence Permit (UK version of a green card) waiting for her in the nearest main post office to our home. Nothing like the US process, for us at least: just proof of our marriage, having enough money to live on, and paying the NHS surcharge for the two years.
