Moving back to UK, Mother and 3yr old
Hello!
I'm in a bit of a weird situation and I wanted to see if anyone here has been in a similar situation. I'm living abroad with my husband who is not English and does not currently have any visa for the UK. My son is a British citizen, as am I. To get my husband a visa I would need to come to the UK, work for 6 months and get him on a spouse visa which I have done before and was accepted (we lived there for 2.5 years before making the silly decision to move back to his home country).
I'm now at a point where I just need to get out but I don't want to affect my son. I don't have much savings at the moment and don't have family that I can stay with/rely on for childcare.
Of course his father can look after him whilst I work and set us up but I just really wanted to see if there was any possible way I could make it work where I could bring him with me.
Between long waiting lists for childcare and housing and then also being somewhat tied to London (so that I can get a job that meets the financial requirements for the spouse visa easier), it all just feels like I'm going to need to either give up or leave my son here for a long period of time.
If anyone has gone through anything similar, I'm looking for anything to help, advice or options I can look at.
Thank you so much for reading!
