Thanks! I've just seen that they say to allow 10 months from applying to moving! I thought I had seen on timelines it was taking 4 months. They say they're currently processing applications received one month before. Isn't that quick?

Is it ok if I visit the US for a couple months? How about if I stay and never come back to the UK? Do they know, and then I need to file differently?

Oh yeah, I know, I'd have a joint sponsor as well. Probably my brother and his wife.

I know if my husband has a Green Card he can't get Medicaid for I think it's 10 years, but if we didn't have over $2,000, could I (US citizen) and our US citizen children get it? How about other public assistance like food stamps and HEAP, and emergency assistance for rent? Could I apply for it and get it in my name? Or if I'm married to a Green Card holder would they not give it to me?

I'm a USC living in the UK with my UKC husband, planning on getting him his Green Card by DCF London, looking at our options! We'd come over with our savings to live off of for hopefully renting a room and living expenses like food and car, so would have more than $2000 at first. But once that gets under $2000 and runs out...?
