[quote="hatchsead"][quote="Shondra Sharma"]Guys everything close for us, no nhs access, no bank account, no driving licence, no renting house, how we going to survive? Have you heard this news?[/quote]

@Shondra Sharma, I have heard the news just as the HO secretary said few days ago that she wants to make it hostile for immigrants/ illegal immgrants.
But don't worry, just like the 12 Israelites species in the bible, 10 of them came back with the report below;

[quote]But the men who had gone up with him said, 'We can't attack those people; they are stronger than we are." And they spread a bad report about the land they had explored. They said, "The land we explored devours those living in it. All the people we saw there were of great size. We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them. — Numbers, 13:31-33[/quote]

While on the other hand the remaining 2 species (Joshua and Caleb) gave a differnt report as below;

[quote]They gave Moses this account, "We went into the land to which you sent us, and it does flow with milk and honey! Here is its fruit.But the people who live there are very powerful, and the cities are fortified and very large. We even saw descendants of Anak there." — Numbers, 13:27-28[/quote]

[quote]
"Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, 'We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it.'" — Numbers, 13:30[/quote]

Joshua completed the task of leading the Israelites into the Promised Land and of taking possession of it. God promised Caleb and Joshua that they would receive the land which they had explored for themselves and their descendants. Caleb was also told that he would live to go into the Promised Land.

The moral of this lesson is that, which ever way you see the land is how you will live it. Believe my friend that the Lord is good and His mercies endures forever.
We will all drink and eat of the milk and honey of this land either they like it or not.
It is well![/quote]

Amen, Amen and AMEN!!! @ Divinespeed, congrats!! Greetings everyone else!!

Guys there is no need to panic. God is always on the side of the people that love him. I feel they are trying to frustrate immigrants or illegals as they say. No one would want to come to this country any more and they would start begging immigrants to come back after their policy fails. It happened in the 50's when they employed people from Asia and the carribean to work as bus drivers and in the clothing industry.
Godgives

@shondra sharma , yes we applied 3 applications two for my daughters and one from my husband and me. and last time they just refuse us because we made a application 28 days before my children completed 7 years. so i don't have any other options rather then put a new application.if they will refuse us now with any other reason then i will fight in court but hopping for positive result.what about u did u applied for JR?

I was told to include 6 months payslips by my lawyer but thanks to this forum, i included at least a years payslips, p60, 3 years council tax bills, 3 years bank statements, at least 3 payslips to add to the last years...for last 2 years, amazon receipts, ebay receipts, car insuarance, home insuarance...anything that i can for last three years. I never left anything to chance. I also included doctors cards, letters from docters when i had my last baby 2 years ago. I also sent my daughters school report, she is p 2 now. I sent her graduation certificate, her french certificates for nursery...lol. This was from us both....whatever we each could throw in, with our joint names or individual names. My bank statement had bank transfer from my partner to show we share finances..this is important as well.

I hope this helps. When you do these kind of applications include 3 years at least. Show finance sharing, joint bills from places like the council, tax office. Then show child having both parents being involved if in relationship...for example a letter with both of your names addressed.

You have been granted, i prophesy the most three weeks. I will pray for you, remember that God is the giver, this is just stuff, but God owns all countries. Ask for mercy and God to remember you. He has already has given you. Maybe your angel has been caught as in daniel when God answered him, and sent him a reply with an angel who was captured by the prince ( demonic prince of that area), for 21 days. The archangel Michael, was sent to loose the angel from the demonic angel to give the answer to daniel. Ask God, to send Michael to loose your angel if he has been caught by the principalities and powers, because they control world power and laws.
