Dear Friends
Please I need your help and more informaion to help me sort my case. I have applied as a skilled worker immigration category in London office in August 2007. Processing did not start yet. I have great problems with my current wife and we are separated but not legally divorced. My questions are:
1)If I want to continue without considering my wife in the application at all, will this affect the processing of my application?
2) My children are 7&3 years old and they are on my wife passport, does this mean that I will not be able to include them in my application as well?
N.B. I am not in need to claim points depending on my wife so no worries in this point, I just want to know if my status has changed from Married to separated without divorce, does this affect the application and does separation need legal proof?

Thanks very much

Thanks BoobyB, My wife is Egyptian and we do not have back in Egypt separation certificate either marriage or divorce? so I do not know what to do. Ok anyway if I have finished the processing and my wife and the children have done the medical check, police check..etc but they will not go with me, do I still have to proof anything or they just decided that they will not go and I will go myself only?
Thanks
