“We are writing to inform you that due to the humanitarian crisis caused by the invasion of Ukraine, UKVI is prioritising Ukraine Visa Scheme applications.” Obviously, there’re more, but that’s the important bit.

Because of Putin’s war on Ukraine, my visa application to live in the UK with my soon-to-be husband has been thrown to the back burner. They’re saving people, so I get it. I WANT them to help save lives. It’s just a blow to have my life put on pause for an unforeseen amount of time. Because there’s nothing I can do about it, I know I have to just shake it off. Easier said than done. I’m trying.
