I know this is an old post, but thought I'd add something else too....
My British boyfriend moved to Australia permanently in June 2002, after 15 months of waiting for his visa to be approved.
Basically, I recommend to anyone contemplating moving overseas to be with their sweetheart, to collect and KEEP anything that proves your relationship with each other!! As you may need to provide the evidence in the application process. Things like photos, letters to each other, Valentine's Day cards, even those airline boarding pass stubs when you went on that romantic island holiday...
Letters of reference from family and friends are good too.
My boyfriend and I are now engaged and due to marry in early April this year (2004). We plan to visit the UK every 4 years to catch up with his family and friends. Living in another country really does broaden your mind!
