After living 5 years with my partner (EU & Non EU) we applied to a permanent residence together in May.

Application sent (online/postal): May 2nd
Payment taken: May 3rd
Supporting documentation sent : May 4th
Confirmation email: May 3rd
Biometric letter received: July
Biometric details submitted: July
COA received: August
Online Status: Decided August 31st

Documents received: October 17th (originally sent 11th)
PR card received for EU : October 17th (originally sent 11th)
PR biometric card received for NON-EU: still waiting…

I received a letter along with our supporting documents saying I would be receiving my biometric residence card separately within 10 working days but nothing happened. I will contact them if I don’t receive it by end of this week.

In the letter it says “ a residence card will be sent within 10 working days” but nothing mentioned about whether it is a permanent residence card or not.

Did the letter you receive (asking to joint applicants) say the same thing? I’m worried about it may not be a permanent residence card or am I too suspicious?


Thank you all.
