This the way i understand it then:

That if the applicant can prove that he/she has previously stayed with the EEA sponsor in another member state( under the same roof), that applicant could be ok. Thats step N0.1, before other issues into consideration.( such as Valid ID, Being dependant on that same sponsor here in UK as well etc)

The techenicalities involved in OFMs makes things a beat complex, however straight forward sometime they look to be. And i a sume the directive its self is to blame for this, for up to now they have not come out to put this clear.

Just to add another thing, the UK's requirement that the Durable partner should be living lawfully in the UK to Qualify for Residence card , is unlawfully.

It is important to note that this requirements does not apply to Other family member who have lived in the Same household or dependant on the EEA national exercising treaty rights in the UK.

Once you can established you were resided in another member state with the Union Citizen, then you are accompanying or joining the Same Union Citizen in another member State, and would be dependant or living under the same roof, then you qualify for your entry and residence to be facilitated, and for an extensive examination to be undertaken of your personal circumstance.

Do EEA2 holders have to queue as other or EU citizens' queue at the UK airports and have their passport stamped every single time they enter the UK?

With due Respect to 86ti....

what he means that FP are not issued under EU rules, and they FP holders are stamped etc....

But RC and PR are issued under EU rules and are not supposed to be stamped under EU rules..

So the questions and the answer are mixing FP with RC & PR ....
so from EU rule Q and A were both wrong...

[To 86ti: I hope i understood ur statement]

Hi MelC,

I would also really like to see that letter if possible?

Hi All

I sent a query to both WorldBridge and UKBA regarding Family Permit requirements. I am Non-EEA married to Irish national, based in Ireland.

Just received their replays:

WorldBridge
“Please be informed that an Irish residence permit or card is not valid for travel to the UK”

UKBA
“You MUST obtain an EEA Family Permit before entering the UK”

@MelC – I would also like to see the info you have received from the EEA/fp manager at the UKBA. Please PM me, if possible with their contact details.

I am thinking about trying to go to UK without a Family Permit - together with my Irish spouse, of course, and all documents that can prove that we are a genuine family. What if we go by ferry rather than flying? Is there actually any immigration/passport control at ferry ports between Ireland and UK?

What are your opinions guys? Anyone have experience?

[Obie]

The Upper Tribunal has ruled in the case of TA and Others (2006 Regs – reg 8 ) Nigeria [2011] UKUT 00253(IAC) , that the requirement that a non-EEA national should be accompanying or joining an EEA national should be read as incooperating those who arrived before and after their EEA sponsor.

It remain to be seen in light of this judgement, whether or not the requirement that the EEA national must be accompanying or joining their EEA sponsor, before an EEA family permit is issued is actually lawful. It also remain to be seen whether a person will be denied entry, if on arrival, their EEA sponsor is not available.
This is an interesting case indeed.
