OK, pls bear in mind I'm celebrating a 3-0 win today, hic....Richard66 wrote:Indeed, I tried and I now I know that:
1) According to some she needs a visa;
2) According to others she does not;
3) According to yet others she needs a family permit.
This is very clear.
You DO NOT have to provide anything to get a EEA FP other than the passports and proof of the relationship (ie the marriage certificate). If they are asking for anything more, make a fuss - which I am glad to see you are already doing :)Richard66 wrote:What about all the nonsense about bank statements and all that? Is the refusal of a family permit a possibility if I fail to provide these?
Cheap! My call to the German Consulate in London cost nearly £15!!!Richard66 wrote:Indeed, 3 bricks landed at the British Embassy in Rome: by registered post, by fax and by e-mail!
What really gets me is that the embassy gives no contract details for the visa section. One needs to call some so-called "commercial partner" who does not answer one's questions by e-mail, has no address, but only a telephone. Of course if you want information you can call, you only need to pay something like £7!
As we know, this is right. However, if you're flying you're going to have to convince the airline check-in person to let your wife board the plane, so be prepared for that.Richard66 wrote:I got a reply from the Citizens Signpost Service (European Union) who tell me that all my wife needs is her valid passport and her residence card (they even call it by the Italian name, permesso di soggiorno).
