Any more good news from april applicants?

Hi all the April applicants, especially those who are waiting to hear from the home office like me.
I had all the documents back (including my husband's passport) from the home office today with the letter (dated 25 Sep) saying that I should receive my card (RC) within 10 working days!

I moved to a new place in the middle of July and have not informed of the change of the address to the home office. The landlord is still looking after my mails and this way I was able to receive the package from the home office that was delivered to the previous address today.

Here, I have one question...there is a note in the letter I received today saying, "on delivery of new card, the courier will require proof of identity and a signature to confirm receipt of the package."
I am a little concerned about what will happen when the courier comes to the house I used to live. Nobody can receive my RC on my behalf. I will tell the landlord to ask other tenants not to mention to the post man that I moved out. Will he still leave a notice paper for me? Does anyone has a similar experience like me?

I finally received my RC yesterday.

My previous landloard did not realised the notice paper from DX as it was a proper letter in the envelope (dated 2/10) and I eventuallyreceived it on Sunday. I tried to arrange a redelivery according to the instruction give by the DX letter...called them but only automated response and the website had no option to send it to alternative address. On Monday, I send an email to the Home Office which deals with BRCdelivery, explaining my situation that I have moved and providing information they required, and I received a reply from a lady after two hours from my email, saying that they have arranged a redelivery of my BRC to my new address with the DX link/phone number to track it. I was so surprised that they were so efficient and helpful.

On Tuesday, the DX courier man came to my house already at 10:30am and I finally received my BRC.
The BRC shows the same date as it is shown in the RC letter, so mine is valid from 25/09.

It was a long journey till I received it.

Good luck to all who are waiting for your BRC

Congratulations to everyone who received the RC and good luck to those who are waiting for answers and to those who have sent appeals

Hello everyone.

I submit my application 9th July. I really need go back China the end of January. I am afraid I can't get my RC before that. I saw some information about you can traveling without your RC if you have your COA , marriage certificate and with your EEA partners. Is that true ?

I try to find this post but I can't. Is possible someone can sent me this kind of link please?

Thank you very much.

Hello putinieeA

No no interviews no questionnaire nothing

Hi everyone,

Need a little advice here.
Me&My unmarried partner applied in July, received COA in Aug and now waiting for the RC. I am the EEA National, and my partner is the non-EEA. We applied on the basis that I am employed.

As you know there was a section on the application form where the EEA national's monthly income is asked. I've put in my monthly salary, however this month I received a one-off bonus, and bonuses are also run through the PAYE just as they were a part of the salary, so if/when the HO checks in with HMRC, they will see the extra payment made this month, and I'm worried that this might seem as a discrepancy. So the question is, do you think this is something I need to inform the HO about, by sending the relevant payslip and a letter from employer explaining the payment? Do you think this counts as 'change of circumstances'? Any advice/opinion would be much appreciated.

Btw congratulations to everyone who have recently received their RCs!

Hi raume

I am also an unmarried partner and my EEA partner also receives bonus (at the begining of the year).

Short answer is: NO!!! don't over complicate yourself!

Bonus are quite a common thing for regular, full-time employees, and provided you filled in the form honestly and correctly, there should not be a problem (I don't remember there being a question about bonuses in the form, so I don't think they want to know that). Also, I would be very surprised if the HO checked every single payment your company makes to you, for the following months after you apply!!! Why would they go through that hassle???

Provided you have submitted the original payslips in your application, which normally match what you declared in the form, that should be enough evidence of your regular circumstances.

And no, a bonus is not a change in circumstances!!!

I got a letter for Home Office today, because I send a Pre-action protocol. The letter says:

Thank you for you pre-action protocol communication concerning the refusal (dated 29 september 2015) of your application for Residence card. You express surpise at the refusal and do not understand it, considering the evidence and information you provided.

Perhaps the explanation could have been clearer. The decision maker considers applications in stages, and each stage confirms that certain obligations have been met by the applicant, leading one stage into the next. The final stage is to recognise that all conditions are met. Unfortunately your application, detailed though it was, fell at the first stage that is, whether you have provided the requisite identity document(s). Although the refusal letter sets out the provision that

17.—(1) The Secretary of State must issue a residence card to a person who is not an EEA national and is the family member of a qualified person or of an EEA national with a permanent right of residence under regulation 15 on application and production of—
(a)a valid passport; and
(b)proof that the applicant is such a family member.

it does not clearly say, for which we apologise, that the passport ( that you explained was already in our possession), expired on 4 November 2013 and its thus not valid. Consequently your application was refused. As you have noticed, the letters refers to 17(1)(b) whereas it would better have referred to 17(1).

We apologise for that error also. Although you also provided an ARC card, this was not acceptable because your asylum application was refused and appeal rights have been exhausted. In the light of the foregoing, it is improbable that the court would find our action unlawful in conjunction with this explanation.

You might consider obtaining an up to date valid passport and applying again. If you cannot do so for reasons beyond your control, you might wish to fully explain the circumstances and provide an alternative form of identity with your application, for consideration
