hi AKZ ,

how much did your partner earn ?
In our five years time 2 maternity leave each 38 week long, but my wife was still self employed registered during that time.
the average income of five years is 55/week

They have not considered some invoices as were paid cash to in my appeal i will provide more proof to make it consider and also i will raise the point that there was no minimum income threshold exist for self employed EEA. the second point will be maternity leave is not gap but it lawfully allowed to EEA national worker or self employed to go for maternity leave and retain the right to reside status during that leave.

thinking if i can raise some more points . But i am not sure about judge as he will support the UKBA not us as every english is now too angry on EEA national, the proof is 2015 uk election.

Remember is there no human rights if an english is angry.

good luck every one.

Guys wondering may be I'm wrong but it seems people who applied for RC their are getting response much quicker than those applied PR..
As RC people getting their RC of end of Jan applicants but PR still on wait as I applied on 12/01/15.
Someone said in forum it takes up to 90 working days on average but mine is almost 100 business days but nothing..
Do not know how long more..

Thought I should share my time line
sent application: 24/01/15
Acknowledgement: 30/01/15
COA dated: 04/02/15(with rights of work)
PR. dated: 26/05/15

Couldn't be happier and I thank my Lord. Now summer holiday plans can begin :)

Documents sent:
Tenant Agreement
Joint Bank Statements
EU Spouse payslips (for the past 5 years, was obviously missing some)
My own payslips for the past 2 months (not needed in EU law but thought it will do no harm sending it)
EU spouse passport
My own passport.

Good luck to everybody and thanks to the gurus and other contributors because I got a lot of information from the forum.

Application submitted on 28/01/2015
Acknowledge letter 30/01/2015
COA - 4/02/2015

still waiting

We are going abroad on 1 July so we are going to wait couple days and then request documents back :/

Our application is (I think) straight forward.

My OH has been here since 2006 (came on a visa and a work permit), we have been living together since 2007, got married in 2009.
I have been working since I came to the UK in 2007 and provided all my contracts of employment, P60 for every single year (starting from 2007) and P45. I was also required to register under WRS so I provided a copy of the certificate and payslips for each month I was required to be registered under WRS.
We also provided council taxes bills to prove we have been living together, marriage certificate (we got married here), passports.
My Oh currently has a spouse visa which was granted in 2010 for 5 years.

Yes, I got my RR before I applying for PR, in April I received the acknowledgement letter and Biometric Letter which I summited after 3days of receiving it. since then nothing
No COA. I think they still need to send me COA, But I don't think I need it as I have retained my right of residence. Please I just want know if is normal All Guru in the House.
thanks.

No he wasn't asked for biometrics and the PR is in his passport not a separate card

It looks like they are approving the January applications now so yours might be on its way to you soon but if your travel plans are urgent then I urge you to request for it because it takes a while. Doing this might even cause them to look at your file and approve your application and send your PR together with your passport: this happened to me during my RC application. However I don't think it will put you behind the queue as everyone has the right to this. Doing that will be sheer discrimination!

As an older dependant over 21 on your dad who is your sponsor, you will need to show that you have been solely financially dependant on him for the qualifying 5 years. This includes regular monthly transfers from his account to your account, prove you live at the same address where he pays the bills, rents or owns and receipts of any type of expenses he covers for you (in the case of students accommodation costs, books, food and basic essentials).
Once you start working and earning your own money then it becomes harder to even qualify but under the new forms there is nothing on there to declare if you have ever worked so I think you'll be able to get away with this if you have all the necessary documents mentioned above. Good luck with your application!

oliver,
for your first question im not sure, in general people apply like 1 month before their residence card expore so October for you, however I think some solicitor say we can apply 5 years after a couple has been living together (evidence of council tax, tenancy agreement ...) however not all solicitors do that.... you should ask few lawyers about that point ... don't ask just 1 but few ...

And, as far as I know and been told by sollicitoir getting child benefit and child tax credit is YOUR RIGHT IN THIS COUNTRY. so shouldn't be any problem. and if your wife has been working for the last 5 years so that's great, that means she is exercising her treaty rights and hopefully you will get your PR. as for you being working that doesn't matter if you work or no because that's your spouse who has to provide financial help for you

so good luck !!!! :D
