Hi guys,
I am a U.K citizen but my girlfriend is from the United States. She and I have been together since June 2005 and have basically been hopping back and forth over the Atlantic for some time. However,it is becoming increasingly difficult and immigration is starting to give us a harder and harder time when entering each other's countries.
As things are, I am only allowed to stay in the United States for a maximum of 90 days and she is allowed to stay for 6 months here.
We both feel that we would like to settle down somewhere (either the US or the UK) for a longer period than 6 months but we don't quite feel that we are ready for marriage yet. We are unsure of our options, I have done some light reading about the unmarried couples visa for the UK but I do not think we would qualify for it.
How can we proceed? If you require any additional information in order to answer I will happily post it.
