Stranded in the UK

[Rinkle 0]

Not sure if this is exactly the right spot for this, but anyway ...

I was denied entry into the US almost 3 years ago and have been trying through various means to get back there to be with my US citizen wife. My I-601 application was denied a couple of months ago and we decided not to appeal as we'd had enough and just wanted to get back to our lives. As a result my wife intends to move here to the UK (London) very soon.

We're not looking for any more legal advice as we've had just about all we can take. However, what I am wondering is if they're any other folks in our situation here in the UK. I know that my wife is going to find it difficult to adjust to life here and being able to chat or even meet other people with similar experiences would be a great help. Is there already a group out there and if not would it be a good idea to maybe start one.

Any comments, etc welcomed.

Cheers,

Nick

I'm sorry to hear the waiver did not work out for you. Hope your wife will adjust and you'll finally have a life!

Thanks for the link to the website Mrs.J06. Looks really useful and have passed it along to my wife.
