Expired C Visa EU Spouse

Hi all!

My spouse ( non eea ) arrived three months ago on a join EU spouse visa, and we have been gathering necessary documents for the EUFAM 5 years card.. I have been waiting for the landlord to send me the ptrb registration letter for my wife for 6 weeks, and i just now realised that my wife's visa expired like a week ago.. Are we going to be in trouble when we are going to send the EUFAM card request ? What can i do to smooth things over?

Thanks!

Hi Lebig when i came here i applied immediately , even though i didnt have prtb and i think you could sent rent contract first.

You really wasted nearly 3 months it's precious time gone there .You should just applied and let them know you will send the landlord docs once you receive . they would have issue a tempory card while awaiting doc.
now with the gap of a week just sent a form and letter today . i don;'t more of the law

Hey sport 1214,

No problem, my wife is chinese and applied from China, from start to finish it took around 5/6 weeks to get the visa delivered.


Broli,

Yes i definitely should have done it like you.. I took a look at the Irish transposition of EU law, and it looks like while you 'may' request the residence card within 3 months of your arrival, there is a deadline given of 4 months after arrival of the EU spouse in the country to submit it.. I just received the ptrb registration and will be sending the whole thing today. I will let you guys know how it goes, as this may be an interesting piece of information for everyone.

Thanks!
