Hi, everyone. I really wish that I could give you a good news but I haven't heard anything from Home Office yet...

Is anyone who can give us a little hope??

Joe (is that your name, joelondon?), since you applied via a lawyer, have you tried to ask him (or her) to call up Home office?

I tried to post a comment but I got always error messages, and thought my message was not posted but it did - many times for some reason.

I apologize these same messy comments all over this message board...
Does anyone know if I can cancel my posts?

hi everybody
I am going to scream
my PR as a non EEA Ex family member who retains right of residence following divorce has been refused with no right of appeal after 13 months of wait

2000 married EEA member
2001 issued 5 years residence card
2005 petitioned divorce
2006 decree nisi and decree absolute granted
2007 applied EEA4 (retention of residence following divorce )with all required docs
8 months later HO request spouses EU passport and proof of employment at time of divorce What is going on?
Ex would never hand her passport or anything.
I worked and paid taxes for the last 8 years my ex-spouse as well until we divorced .

I managed to get a letter of employement from my ex but not her passport impossible.
I notified the HO about it and told them that my ex would not hand her passport after all we are divorced.
6 month later today (13 month in total) I received the refusal with no right of appeal on the ground that I have not suplied ID of the EEA national as required.
They considered my application as an Non EEA family member of an EEA and not of a non EEA who is retaining right following divorce.
I cannot believe how incompetent my caseworker is.
I sent the EEA4 form without filling section 3 relating to the EEA family member(as I am not anymore one),I joined a cover letter explaining that I was divorced and fulfill all the conditions for the retention of residence following divorce (included decree absolute 2006) I suplied proof that she was working at the time of divorce.I included a print of the 2006 EEA regulation(article 10 retention of residence following divorce)
After all those detailled explanations my caseworker managed to consider my application as a family member of an EEA under article 15 of the EEA 2006.
I really don't get it.I have been married for 6 years but I divorced why are they doing this to me?
What should I do?contact solvit?try a JR?reapply and wait 13 more month?

PS they had all the required docs (my 6 p60,my last pay slips,divorce certificate decree absolute proof of my ex's employment at the time of divorce.)
The funny thing is that they asked me about that last point for the period of decree nisi to decree absolute with the exact dates wich tells me they read the divorce certificate.

doesnt look like the home office website is updated yet but some of my friends have recieved thier PR.
They had sent thier passport in Mid March.

I also spoke to them the other day and they say they have started march. it looks like its moving forward ..

Good luck to all

It is a bit depressing to know that Home Office is still processing the application from March 2008... It means that I can get PR in May?! My parents are coming to Europe in April, and I got to meet them up in Italy. I thought I could get PR in 6 months...

Do you think filing a complaint will make my process faster?

6 months, though the legal maximum for such applications under EU law, is very optimistic!

Do you think filing a complaint will make my process faster?

No one can confirm this, but I think that proactivity is better than reactivity. So i'd say: Start complaining!

hmm... interesting ...

I recd a letter from the Home Office to send in my dads p60's

Does that mean my application is in motion?

hello Folks,

any news on whats the issue with the delays.

i need my passport to travel in mid april. and its being more than 6 months since i applied. looking at the forum some of you have not received your passports for quite some time. did any of you contact/complain to the Home office?

billi · Post by **billi** » Sun Mar 01, 2009 11:31 pm

I been advised not to complain, there is no reason for the delay basically.

We don't pay any money for EEA4 application so its the least of their priorities.

actualy i am not too sure if they not doing it on purpose coz I dont think that there are 1000's of eea applications and they should receive not more than a dozzen eea4 applications every week in that department.

I did call the HO today, i was told that they have loads of applications to deal with. i was told my application in being considered, and when i asked what it really means . i was told its in a que (a long one i suppose) but the lady was quick to ask if i want my passport back.

i agree that EEA4 are least of their priorities. but i disagree that there are no reasons for the delay

Billi,any specific reasons for not complaining.

Would you please let us know if anyone has any news??

The Home Office website is still stating that they are processing the application as of Feburuary!!

kaya.uk · Post by **kaya.uk** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 7:44 pm

Hi, it's me again.

I tried to call the Home Office millions of times, as we need to get passport back, but they have never been available, and we cannot even leave a message for calling back!!

I don't know what to do... Does anyone have any idea? If you ask a immigration lawyer, can they have a special number for lawyers??

Please anyone help!!
