American wins fight to remain in the UK
December 24th, 2009
An American mother living in Scotland has been given bittersweet news this Christmas.
Angela Faye Smith, 41, had been facing deportation following the breakdown of her marriage and an unsuccessful visa application. Ms Smith, who had initially entered the UK on a marriage visa, had been informed that she would need to leave the UK on 13th December as her application had been rejected and, as she did not have possession of her two children’s passports, she would have to leave them both in the UK when she was made to return to the USA.
