FYI - The board word censor auto changes f a k e to bad quality .

It was only a matter of time before the profiteers took advantage of this route into the UK. Regrettably the innocent are likely to suffer for the actions of the guilty, as in the ETS scam. It also appears that cases are being examined historically for those using SS over the last 3 years.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

This helps put the recent and non-EU compliant, non-EU friendly changes to the UK EEA Regulations vis a vis Surinder Singh into some sort of context.
