Re: Do dual EU-UK citizens have rights under EU law?

Hello everyone,

I also received my PR BRM yesterday, valid for 10 years.
Regarding citizenship it says that if married to UK citizen, i can apply straight away. I decided to wait until it is 12 months from PR, which my letter confirms is in October, so only 2 months away. Just enough time to prepare for the life in the uk test.

An additional late update: I did leave the country with my passport and a picture of an expired vignette (which is in my previous passport). I traveled with my sponsor and child, and marriage/birth certificates and proof of residence. They let me back in. Just in case someone is considering traveling without the document.

@ silverman123, I think your situation is unfair, and a pure mistake from the case worker.
It would be discriminatory to deny PR bc your sponsor is on maternity leave. She is employed, just on paid leave. If this were the protocol, in my view is discriminatory against female EU and their family members, as women take paternal leave way more frequently than men.

It is ridiculous if you were expected to plan your family around visa application dates! Besides already having to stop your normal lives during the application process...

What is your solicitor saying? what is your plan? I wish you all the best.

Thank you and everyone else in this forum for your support. It has made this wait a bit more bearable.

Salu.

Hi salu.
Congratulations man. You deserve it you have been since February.
Well i haven't heard anything from home office yet.
But as i mentioned before it doesn't looks like a mistake I think they meant to issue me another 5 years residence.
Either because the case worker does not know what maternity mean or he thought i should wait until my old residence card expires.
Which in both cases they are wrong.
At the moment i dont have any other options.
I will have to apply once again at i will know where I'm standing..
My solicitor is keep asking me to wait...
But wait for what!!!
They are not going to reply.
Or they may do after many complaints.
So best thing to do is just to do fresh application very soon.
@ Richard w
@Obie @vinny @CR001
I just need your opinion regarding to this case law
St Prix C-507/12; effect) (maternity case) [2015] UKUT 540 (IAC)  
Do you recommend to add this case law to my covering letter??
Or is not going to help???
Many thanks in advance

Hey kam999,
Here's my timeline:
5 years of marriage in Oct 2017
Residence vignette valid from June 2013 to June 2018

Sent all the documents on 30/01/18 (~5 months before vignette expired!)
Submitted biometrics on 15/02/18
My confirmation of application is dated 16/02/18

... long wait ...
[irrelevant detail: requested current passport for traveling in mid June, received it 10 days later]
...more waiting...

Received letter confirming PR (from 5th anniversary of marriage) and other documentation submitted (sponsor's id, PR, old visas, old passports, bank statements) on 01/08/18

Received PR 02/08/18, dated 30/07/18, exactly 6 months from application!

@Silverman, you have PR, and you applied after 5 years of marriage, you should get your PRC!!!
I agree with you, I am Not sure what you are supposed to wait for!
You are supposed to apply before (no more than 6 months) your vignette expires, not after.
Maternity leave does not affect your wife's rights or exercise of them. If this is the reason for their decision, it is very wrong. In my view, you should not wait.

Please keep us posted, so everyone else still waiting, I really hope everyone gets good news soon.

@salu @kam999
Family members of dual British and
EEA nationals
This section explains the conditions to be met when a family member of a dual
British and European Economic Area (EEA) national applies for a document
confirming a right to reside in the UK. These are often described as so-called
‘Lounes’ cases after the Court of Justice of the European Union case of that name
(C-165/16).
The relevant conditions for this type of application are at regulation 9A of the
Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2016 (as amended) (the 2016
Regulations) and should be treated as if they were in force at all relevant times.
A dual British and EEA national will continue to be an EEA national for the purposes
of the 2016 Regulations, as defined in regulation 2(1), if:
• the dual British and EEA national exercised free movement rights in the UK as
a worker, self-employed person, self-sufficient person or student, or had a
right of permanent residence in the UK prior to the acquisition of British
citizenship
1• subsequently acquired British citizenship, while also retaining their nationality
of origin
2• the dual British and EEA national continues to exercise Treaty rights or holds
A RIGHT OF PERMANENT RESIDENCE
The family members of dual British and EEA nationals meeting these criteria will
continue to be eligible to apply for the documentation available under regulations 12,
17, 18 or 19 of the 2016 Regulations.

WELL
It's very clear in point 2
Either to continue exercising her treaty rights or hold permanent residence.
So maybe is not the maternity then because simply she hold the right of permanent residence since 2015( so even if my wife does not exercise her treaty rights but she hold her permanent residence i should get my permanent residence) that what the home office says.
My expectation is they though i applied to early than i should be in this case home office will send me another 5 years residence card.

I. Will apply again next week hopefully i will get any response soon.
Many thanks guys.
I'm so happy that everyone getting his/her permanent residence after a long time of panic and stress.
Please keep in touch in this forum.

Hello,
Actually, I don't think this is an EEA rule. It was probably applicable to a visa I held before, but now I am not sure! My apologies for being misleading!!!

Looking for information on this, other visa types have shorter times. Reading through a topic in this website, i read a post from one of the moderators saying that it doesnt matter what your permit says, what matters is that you have your 5 years at the time of application. So I really don't think this is what is happening in your case.

CR001 says:
"You need 5 years residence. When you can apply depends on your relationship with your EU sponsor.

There is no '28 days early' concession for EEA/EU route applications."

And secret.simon adds:
"The applicant must have completed five years of residence in the UK under the EEA Regulations before application. The date on the RC is irrelevant. So, if for instance, a non-EEA person married an EEA citizen in the UK and the EEA citizen was consistently exercising treaty rights throughout the five years, the non-EEA citizen can apply on the fifth anniversary of the marriage, irrespective of the date of the Residence Card."

This is the link to that discussion (I think it is ok to post from same website!?):
eea-route-applications/how-early-can-yo ... 44284.html

Good luck with your new application. Are you adding a cover letter saying that you are applying after 5 years of marriage with sponsor (and having held a EEA family permit throughout)?

@kam999: I forgot to add, my previous family permit took longer than 6 months. It was actually very difficult to get my passport back. Apparently, it had been misplaced on someone's desk... I will just say that my experience with the HO has been tricky, and I am happy to have a break for a while.

Hi

My wife received a letter confirming her permanent card and status Today and then 2 h later another guy delivered a letter with her permanent residence card.

We sent application at the end of May and it took 2 months to process.

However She joined me in December 2012 and then applied for 5 years EEA family member residence card in 2013. I became British citizen in 2017.

We mentioned about Lounes case in very short note only but we sent 2 prints out from final judgement.
We sent loads of supporting documents in order with stickers to explain what is what and that is all about.

I would like to say thank you those here who advised us on what to do and those who gave us the right useful info.
I wish you good luck with your applications

Dear moderator and friends.
I will apply once again for my permanent residence next week.
Do you recommend to add this case law in my covering letter?????

Weldemichael and another (St Prix [2014] EUECJ C-507/12; effect ) [2015] UKUT 540 (IAC)

And as you aware from my previous posts that my wife acquired permanent residence in 2015.
And never stop working since 2010.
And still employed but on maternity pay at the moment.

And i have confirmation from her employer that she is going back to work in October once maternity pay stop.
So she is not going to stay 12 moths home. Just 9 months only.
Need your help please.
Many thanks in advance.

Good afternoon All,

I am in process of filling the form and I have couple of question. If you guys could answer me would be amazing.
My partner for 8 Years, who i consider my husband as we had a religious marriage got his residence documentation ( unmarried partner-extended Family member) in 2013 September.

I was just reading the the 2016 no. 1052 legislation and one of the” Definitions of the Family member” is :

(3) A person (“B”) who is an extended family member and has been issued with an EEA family permit, a registration certificate or a residence card must be treated as a family member of A, provided—
(a)B continues to satisfy the conditions in regulation 8(2), (3), (4) or (5); and
(b)the EEA family permit, registration certificate or residence card remains in force.

1. Does this means that my husband is a family member and not in the extended family member category? Or I understood it wrong?

2.
In terms of bills/ listed documents do we need to send only one from each year from all documents what listed.

Sorry if I am annoying but I didnt really get it :-(

Thanks for all of you in advance.

Hi Guys,

Salu - Thank you for sharing the relevant details.

Navaro2 - Congratulations

Silver - There is no such thing to apply for PRC while ur RC has less then 6 month validity, the law says, once you completed 5 years with the conditions you are eligible to apply for PRC. Please get more info abt maternity leave prior to sending them another application. Senior members may be able to help and only then add that Weldemichael and another judgement. Reason, this time they might have sent resident card to you in error and you by adding more/irrelevant info will make your case complicated urself.

good luck waiters (I am one of you too :? )

All, amazing news (in my opinion).

The HO has published this long faff about settled status https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... e_2018.pdf. Hidden at page 24, footnote 16, the HO has, to my knowledge, confirmed that an EU citizen includes someone with a dual EU-UK nationality.

Not a change to the EEA regulations, but still a positive sign for whoever, like me, would like to apply for British Nationality but has a non-EEA spouse.
I'm at the same situation, has anyone apply for BC yet? Is it definitely fine for the right of a non eea spouse.

Hi Stawberrys,

Most users on this thread have acquired dual nationality in the past and many of their partners have successfully obtained PRC, thanks to Lounes who has saved them and they don't have to apply under UK immigration rules.

You can wait until ur spouse acquires PRC or you can apply for British citizenship and ur spouse can confidently apply for PRC when his time comes.. Law has been amended and things are in our favour.

However, if you want to apply for BC now make sure ur back home allows dual nationality as you have to retain ur European nationality in order to accommodate ur spouse's PRC application.

Hi marcsiga,

I am not an expert but just to add my two cents:

In regards to ur question 1, I think you are right in thinking that ur spouse is family member and not extended family member. On page 6 of the below link it says the same and on page 7 it explains who extended family members are these the guidelines to caseworkers: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... s-V6.0.pdf
You can explain it against question 1.10 on the application form. I would highly recommend to register ur marriage in either ur or his country (ideally both) and add an english translated certified copy with ur app, it will only strengthen ur case.

ur question 2's answer depend on who's applying i.e. urself, ur spouse or both of u. I can share what i did (my partner already acquired DCPR so i dont have provide too much of her activity in UK:
please be advised u need to prove that u r exercising treaty rights, u both live together so again as per ur circumstances they need from both of u last 5 years P60's (ur P60's are must, his can prove that u both are sharing accommodation), 3 to 4 payslips with no more gap of 3 to 4 months each year. all Gov letters if u have like driving license, CRB checks, SIA's and then bank statements, bills, tenancy agreements etc. what it says in the guidance notes is the minimum what u should provide.

Good luck and I hope this time they will send unthe right card

Guys,
In term of bank statements
And all bills it says one for each qualifying periord /12 month period:
Do i need to send then one for each year?!
basically for the 5 Year period I shall send 5 Bankstatements, 5Utility Bills..5 P60’s, Employment History, employment contracts

I dont have permanent residence card as I was here already 10 Years when applied for BC, so i will have to send more documents.


I am Hungarian National and I did regitered in 2007 for WRS card, in application they are asking details of that also.
Is it still relevant to me regardless I am dual and my partner received his RC is 2013?!

If someone could give me some light :-)

Hello everyone
Congratulations for all of you who obtained their RC happy for you I know how it is hard and stressful especially when have a family .
We were silent readers but today We want to share with you our shocking moment when thy refused our application as married couple with no right of appeal after 9 months of waiting .My Wife is a dual National as everyone of you know the story.
Case worker refused our application and think our relation is not genuine.... no comment !!!! Especially we have a 2 years old son British National.
How can they refuse us if we did attend our marriage referral ( interview ) with the HO ?? If there was any kind of issue why they didn’t rise it that time ??? Yes we passed the interview and we are married for 5 months .
How come that immigration not following the law ??! Is it right ?!
Seriously we are speechless 😶 and shocked from kind of ignoring human being rights to Uk law and EU law . This is not right this this is beloved and they are no one who can separate you from your own wife and child this is insane and ridiculous as we have 2 years of fighting case with HO plus more than 3 years of proves together.
The question is why HO make life difficult for families who have right to live work and remain in this country??
Please guys what would you advice ?
Thanks 🙏🏻

@SladeW: I am very sorry to hear what you and your family have been going through, on top of the long uncertainty re the Lounes case. I am no expert, and can only speak from my personal experience. I think that if you give more details about you case, and dates, the more senior contributors may be able to give you valid advice. But also it sounds like you would may need to approach a solicitor to give you expert advice.

When I applied for my previous family permit, we were also called for an interview in the HO in Liverpool. I am not sure if we were actually told something like we "passed the test", though.

If you already had your FP, I am not understanding why they called you for an interview for your PR application. Of course, I am assuming that they refused your PR application because it's what most of us in this thread are applying for. But that is not entirely clear in your post either.

Please let us know of any further development. Wish you the best of luck, and a lot of patience.

Any other updates? Kam999? silverman123?
