Thank you for the quick reply. I thought this was the answer but it is not specified, is there any official confirmation anywhere?noajthan wrote:Yes.
If you read Directive 2004/38/EC you will see no restriction on travel whilst an application is being processed.zoefr wrote:Thank you for the quick reply. I thought this was the answer but it is not specified, is there any official confirmation anywhere?noajthan wrote:Yes.
Thanks again! I have browsed this text and see it covers free movement for EU citizens in general, I could not find explicit mention of processing period of permanent residency applications. Clearly EU movement rights remain regardless of a PR application and logically absences after the documented 5 years of residence should not make a difference but I wanted to be absolutely certain. I presume other than change of domicile outside of UK, there are no restrictions on absences following the application.... Is that correct?noajthan wrote:If you read Directive 2004/38/EC you will see no restriction on travel whilst an application is being processed.zoefr wrote:Thank you for the quick reply.

Viva free movement!
Don't expect logic or commonsense to apply - this is a poorly-designed and generic form.zoefr wrote:In several places of the EEA PR e.g. very first section for Payment details "Full name" implies First and Last, so Norma Jeane Mortenson.
In section 1, questions 1.3 and 1.4 seem redundant. 1.3 asks for "full name as shown in passport" implying first and last as above, the question immediately after asks for "surname or family name as shown in passport". I don't understand why 1.4 is asked if I have understood 1.3. In this case is the expected responses:
1.3 = Norma Jeane Mortenson
1.4 = Mortenson
or should 1.3 only be the full first and middle names without the last name like
1.3 = Norma Jeane
1.4 = Mortenson
There is no mandated processing time or SLA for PR applications. (There is one for RCs).zoefr wrote:Thanks again!

Unless you find specific instructions in the associated guidance you may enter what makes sense.zoefr wrote:On the EEA PR, there are several boxes where from/to dates are to be listed. In those cases where the from date has applied since birth, should I put term "BIRTH" or the exact date e.g. 01/06/1926?
Similarly, if something still applies today should I always use "PRESENT"?
Thanks! And a quote from Some Like It Hot!noajthan wrote:Don't expect logic or commonsense to apply - this is a poorly-designed and generic form.zoefr wrote:In several places of the EEA PR e.g. very first section for Payment details "Full name" implies First and Last, so Norma Jeane Mortenson.

My understanding is your first example is 'correct'.
Anything else and you risk getting the fuzzy end of the lollipop.
Boop-boop-de-boop!
You will find much more illogicality as you progress through the form.zoefr wrote:Thanks! And a quote from Some Like It Hot!
I will put Norma Jeane Mortenson in 1.3 to be safe as you suggest and repeat Mortenson in 1.4. Even if it sounds silly, better to be safe. When I first read it, I presumed it was trying to account for those countries that always keep a woman's maiden name on passports, etc. even after marriage but in both cases it asks for same source ("passport, etc.") so I can't see the point of these 2 as written.

You are breaching Board T&Cs.
There are hundreds of questions in the PR form and we cannot fill the forum with questions on each one
