--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a question about the unmarried partner visa. From what I understand, you have to be living together for 2 years before you can get this visa. So my question is, if you are in different countries to begin with how do they expect you to live together for 2 years? Does one of you just get up and go to the other country so you can live together? I assume you can't work during these initial 2 years till you get the unmarried partner's visa? Is this right? Also, can one year of living together be in one country and the second year in the other country?

I've emailed the Home Office with these questions but they have yet to reply to me so thought I'd post here and see what you guys might have to say! I'd appreciate any other information you can give me about this type of visa.
