1. You can find the payment form here: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/507609/Master_Fees_Leaflet_2016_03_08_v0_3.pdf 2. I wouldn't worry about the exact date. The checker at the council which did my partner's application just told him to put in the date the...
Timeline: 01/07/2015 - Application received by Home Office (Turkish civil partner of an Irish citizen, who exercised treaty rights as both student and worker) 07/07/2015 - Biometric enrolment letter received 30/07/2015 - Certificate of Application Received 31/12/2015 - Literally 2 days after 6 month...
Hi there, I've read so many threads on the subject, some of them from a couple of years back and I wanted to get an up to date and concise answer if possible. I'm an Irish/British dual citizen and my partner is Turkish. We applied for the 5 year residency back in 2010 when it seemed less of an issue...
To number 2, if you are working and supporting both of you, the. Your wife can claim to be exercising her rights under the self-sufficient category as far as I'm aware.
Naturally, I no longer head to border control with the intent of mentioning anything about stamps before the IO takes the passport.. Funnily enough, the last two times we went through have been totally uneventful, not even a single question.. Perhaps that wrote something on their records
Yes it was a UKBA issued residence card (the 5 year one) Here is a copy of the letter I received back from the UKBA.. I think I emphasised the fact that I thought I received poor service at the border and my guessing is that that's what triggered the compensation.. Here's the letter I got (via e-mai...
Last year my partner and I travelled to Bruseels via the Eurostar. On the way back we had an officer who seemed to be particularly miserable, asking stupid questions (which one of you is the Turkish one?), most of which I can't remember now but she then stamped my partner's passport.. When I confron...
EEA family permits etc hold no weight when it comes to Turkish visa regulations. Without knowing the nationality of the non EEA citizen involved, I can't tell you whether you'd need a visa or not but nearly everyone who does require a visa can purchase one at the border.. There are exceptions though...
In our experience my partner missed out on a job with a national supermarket chain, simply because they just didn't 'get' the certificate of application and insisted on a passport with residency. He was lucky that an agency 'threw caution to the wind' and was so desperate for people that they photoc...
So I want to get something absolutely straight in my mind.. I'm an Irish citizen and my partner is a Turkish national.. He has said residency card in his passport as a family member of an EEA national. Despite the fact that I'm Irish, he is able to enter the republic with me? I ask that because I th...
When travelling with my non EEA partner I am also ready to let rip when the IO starts going on about a landing card: 'he doesn't require a landing card or a stamp as he has an EEA family permit' I chant, it usually rings a bell, but if it doesn't, and they get bothersome, I simply demand to see the ...
The 3 year residence requirement is for EVERYONE when it comes to home fees, even British students.. You have to have been resident in the UK or another EU state in the 3 years before you start your course. The only exception I know of is for Turkish children of parents working in the UK under the A...
Does anyone have any recent experience re this issue? I'm going on my first holiday with my non-EEA partner next month, and I'm already working myself up about this issue.. ! Have they upped their game at the borders?
Perhaps you're right. I didn't have to sent a British birth certificate, since my Irish passport was considered proof of my identity/nationality. The British form also didn't ask when I entered to the UK, it was more concerned with what I was doing at the time of application (i.e. which right I was ...
Well I'm a British/Irish citizen who has never lived in Ireland and my partner got his RC a couple of weeks ago... I never actually told them I'm a British citizen, do they even bother to check? Obviously someone who is claiming benefits rings all sorts of alarm bells. Hilariously, my student loans ...
The nightmare is finally over for us, as of today! Note, we first submitted our application, without any errors in March.. It was then returned to us (landing on our door step 1 month late due to the Royal Mail) asking for health insurance, even though we'd already included it. We then resubmitted t...
Finally, received RC on Monday dated 1st September, issued 12 days before the end of the six months and all documents back. We feel truly blessed and all weight on our shoulder depleted. Best wishes to everyone! Congratulations! Did you receive it as a sticker in your passport or as a piece of paper?
