Hi
Sorry I missed the earlier question. I didn't do any biometrics. But that could be because UKBA already holds my biometrics for a visa I had before.

Derivative RC's are another form of EEA RC... they dont hold Bio's... do they ?

Well,they did put on their website in Nov that from 1st Dec, all applications for leave to remain or enter will require biometrics. unless they put the news on the wrong section but it was at both European section and the other ones as well. I'm sure we will start hearing from them soon re applications pending and of course issueing DRC. I'm staying positive. Stay blessed.

This to be held alongside Sanneh v SSWP

When I won my appeal the home office completely ignored me for 5 months. No correspondence, nothing. My MP even got involved but yet still no responses. It's only when my solicitor sent them a pre action letter did they respond. I didn't send any forms nor photos. They used the photos I sent with my original application.

Sara,all you need to prove to the court is that,you are the primary carer of the british citizen minor.And back it with a case law of the Upper tribunal like the Omotunde Vrs the Sec of state to buttress your case and also the ZH Tanzania to bring out the issue of best interest of the child which UK is under obligation to adhere to in any case involving a child.
Article 3(1) of UNCRC and Article 9 of the UNCRC which is the separation of a child from the parent/primary carer/guardian against their will,which can only be done in the best interest of the child.The homeoffice didnot comply with this declaration making the decision itself unlawful in relation to Article 8(2).

July is not far, let me know how it goes plse.Wish you the best of luck.

Hello all, if I want to request for expedited hearing what do I have to do?

hi nat1979,

What did you submit as part of your cover letter for your application? Did you quote any case law? If so, any advice on what I can include in my application?
Thank you,
Michael

Michaelj, if you check you will see nat1979 posted that March 2013. Chances are they finished with the forum now.

Thank you 357mag

Thanks for sharing great one. Can you pl further confirm (1) if DRC you granted is based on primary career of a child who needs care, the way uk Gov adopt Gambrano - DRC can be granted for carer for British adult too. IRL holder is as equivalent as Britit national, So if I am a primary carer for Brit adult ILR holder - does it qualify for DRC? (2) can you please name the case you won with ref and who was your Sol. Many thanks.
