Hi alexxy, It's been really interesting reading about your case and congrats on obtaining your permanent residency card! I'm also a Romanian national who has been in the UK for 5 and a half years. I was wondering whether you can clarify a bit about the arguements you have included in your applicati...

Please do update us about what you're doing. I may be in a similar situation very soon. Also can you please give the timeline of your second application + details about what evidence you gave them that you DO NOT require to show evidence of CSI? Thanks I will have to withdraw my appeal I suppose or...

Hi everyone ! I'm back on this forum this time with another issue ! So, after having been refused PR, I've appealed to the First Tier Immigration Tribunal and finally got an oral hearing scheduled for 5th of May 2017. Because of the incredibly long wait for a hearing date I had also, in the meantime...

Hello I first entered the UK in 2008 as a Romanian citizen and since then I have been in full time education. In December 2011 I obtained a Yellow card registration certificate which has allowed me to work alongside my studies. Since January 2012 I until June 2015 I worked part time - between 5 and...

I suggest you stop panicking, read the application requirements carefully, re-apply for permanent residence or appeal the refusal decision if you need to. If you don't understand the whole application process and everything looks too complicated, pay a solicitor or a company to help you make a succe...

Hi, just to update you on the situation ! Yesterday (12/11/2016) I received the papers from the First Tier Immigration tribunal dated 10/11/2016. The oral hearing is scheduled for 05/05/2017 in London. I have appealed since 24/01/2016.

Hi, just to update you on the situation ! Yesterday (12/11/2016) I received the papers from the First Tier Immigration tribunal dated 10/11/2016. The oral hearing is scheduled for 05/05/2017 in London.
If anyone has got any advice on tribunal oral hearings it would be very much appreciated.

Hi guys It has been 3 month since i have applied and no news yet. Have anybody received their PR who applied AUG 2016? Hi ! I believe the waiting times are now about 6 months, so it is still too early to find out. You can contact them after 6 months if there is still no response. My friend applied ...

Yellow registration certificate is in fact your wife's work permit ! Any work that has been done prior to that is considered illegal because only in 2013 did she acquire the working permit. I do not believe that UKVI has made a mistake in your case. Can someone correct me if I am wrong?

Hi justinsanero, I suggest you reapply by sending all documents required, clearly organised, labeled, include cover letter if needed. I was refused Permanent Residence, have appealed since 24th January 2016 and haven't heard anything back yet. In the meantime I have re-applied for PR but it would pr...

Hi ! So I've appealed on the 24th of January 2016 and have not heard anything since. I have phoned them a few months ago and they said it would be at least another several months. In the meantime, I have re-applied for Permanent Residence at the end of July, got an email from them after about a mont...

Hi all ! I have submitted an appeal to the First Tier Immigration Tribunal on 24/01/2016 and I have heard nothing back yet. Home Office refused to grant me PR because of lack of CSI (which I didn't need as I was exempt from having it). I phoned the Tribunal some time ago to inquire about the timelin...

Could someone please assist what sections to be filled (of the new PR form) to apply for PR(for EU-citizen). There are some pages before Section 1 containing Biometric subsection and Personal Details subsection. Do we have to fill out the Personal subsection as well? Please guide......................

My advice on this: For any period of time in the last 5 years you need to state under what basis you apply, say from 2011-2012 student, 2012- 2013 self-sufficient if that was the case etc Now, you are only exempt from providing evidence of CSI if you obtained a registration certificate issued to you...

I will tell you why this CSI requirement was introduced. They wanted to make it harder for any EEA immigrants (students or self-sufficient persons) to get a qualifying period, also they wanted them to spend huge amounts of money monthly on this private insurance thing so that they 'don't become a bu...

If you want to apply for Permanent Residence Card using your yellow card, it really doesn't matter when or whether it expires. You only use the date you acquired it !

Hi Maricruz,

I think just because people applying PR after Brexit.

A

Should not matter ! She applied in February so she should have priority over anyone applying after Brexit.

I suggest you apply for permanent residency ASAP. Fill in the application carefully, pay attention to the relevant sections, attach all the documents required, add your yellow card and attach a cover letter explaining why you are exempt from providing CSI because you obtained your yellow card before...

There is no UKBA, it was abolished in 2013. Appeals can take months (and months) or a year or so. Yes, I meant UKBA - Home Office / UK Visas and Immigration, whatever ... it's all the same thing. I see that now, but I didn't know at the time of the appeal that it would take so long, plus I didn't t...

Alexxy, could you please provide an update on how your court appearance went? Any updates and advice would be very helpful for those who are in a similar situation to yours. Thanks Hi Scarlet !! I did appeal the decision at the end of January and I still have not heard anything back from them! I ca...

Thank you for your reply !! I indeed found the notice you posted before as well and I will submit it as part of the appeal process together with the European Caseworker Instructions chapter 6. My yellow Registration Certificate was indeed issued in Nov 2009 in the capacity of a student which I was a...

The story goes like this: I am a Romanian national. Have lived in the UK for over 6 years. I have applied for a Permanent Residence card in November 2015 and my application has been refused because during Oct 2009 - June 2013 period when I was a student, I did not have CSI - Comprehensive Sickness I...
