But this couple has gone to great lengths to be together during the pandemic, no matter what. Ford went to the U.K. on a visitor visa in January 2020 and Windras was supposed to return with him to Canada before it expired in six months. Finally in January they said they became eligible for a common-law visa, scraped up $400 for COVID-19 tests and booked flights back to Canada. The couple says they can't afford it, and have started an online fundraiser through Go Fund Me for financial help to return home. And the clock is ticking: Dustin's second visitor visa runs out Feb. 26.
