EEA4 fast processing times or wishful thinking

Hey, no probs.
It's better if you apply together with EEA national as the main applicant. The process gets quicker.
Good luck!

WE ARE SENDING JOINT APPLICATION FOR PR AS A EEA NATIONAL MAIN APPLICANT.ONCE WE FILLED ALL INFO OF EEA NATIONAL.DO WE JUST HAVE TO WRITE NON EEA NATIONAL NAME ONLY OR ALL THE INFO ?
THANKS VIK.

Sunshine786 I advise you to read through all the requirements again, as it's so easy to miss out something. I've read mine literally 5 times and still confused. We submitted all the evidence we had for the past 5 years.

When I applied in October I wasn't aware that you can put your EU spouse as a first applicant. Is this something new or something I've missed out? Also, is the timeline the same and what's the difference?
Thank you

i have been advised on this forum that we can apply together using same form,not sure about timeline i think its all depends on case worker.i am sending our eea4 tommorow.
could i ask you that did you send last 5years proofs of employment of eea national?or since they come to this country.
they dont really ask for non eea national employment history ..?
thanks vik

hi vicky_062004 for the past 5 years only. We might have some evidence slightly before as we requested employment history from the HRMC and they have generic forms for the certain periods. I've submitted my history employment too as I was continuously employed as well. I guess this is just extra to support the application.
Good luck!

Thanks a lot mihbos for your quick reply.one last question .in biomatric section says .Do not fill if you are a eea national.complete if any non eea nationals applying with eea national.

page starts with
1. YOUR DETAIL
1.2 If you are including any non-EEA national family members in this application, please confirm
their details in the table below. If there are more than two family members, make a copy of
this table and enclose it with your application.
answer is 1 non eea member


CAN I LEAVE 1. BLANK and write my details on next 1.2 non eea member.
Reason i am asking in non eea section in address says write address if different from question 1.but we spposed to leave it blank section 1 because main applicant is eea national???

Congrats! Can u pls give the details of your timeline as I applied on the 6th of August and I haven't heard anything from Ho.thanks

vicky_062004 I know what you mean but I'm not sure. Don't want to advise you wrong. Maybe someone else can help!

HI everyone, I've just stumbled across this conversation.
This is from the topic DCPR for EEA citizens application timeline

Did you tell them that you had have actually held permanent residence for more than 12 months? You DO NOT have to wait for 12 months after receiving the PR document/card before you apply for naturalisation, if you have already held PR for 12 months! This has been confirmed by the Home Office.

Does anyone have any information about this? Maybe this applies to us as well?

I am a bit worried.. I sent my application on the 4th of November and its now the 17th...My card has not been charged so far and I have not received any letter from the UKBA whether my application was received. Can you please advise who I can contact. Thanks!

Hi again,

Just to give an update on what happened to my application. The UKBA have returned my documents stating that I do not have a valid form of payment. Unfortunatley my name on my bank card is my married name and I am using my maiden name on my application. I resubmitted my application on the 4th of December... Received instructions for biometrics on the 17th of December and then got my Certificate of Application last Monday 11th of January. Basing it on other peoples experiences, I might not get my visa until 4-6 months after. I'm just wondering if its possible to actually fly out within the EU using just the Certificate of application. THank you for your kind responses.

Hello every 1 I got pr today

Your timeline please!

Congrats!can u share your timeline pls cos am still waiting for my pr since 6th of August, 2015 that I applied.

Hi toni34, after first maternity leave she came back part time 16h a week. And did so from 2013 till 2015 and went on second maternity leave in 2015 . I did provide it my wifes maternity letter from job stating when she is leaving and when she is ment to coming back also the letter the day she came back to work , because in 2015 she went on second maternity leave I did also provide it second letter when she is leaving and when she is ment to came back. At the same tame my wife took HSF insurance for all the family from 2013 till present . Hope that helps a bit.
