Settled Status without EU Family member ID and Residency proof anyone?

Post by askmeplz82 » Sat Apr 06, 2019 2:18 am

DID anyone applied Settled Status without EU Family member ID and Residency proof ? I know if you EEA family already applied for one then you just need application reference number but when EU citizen didn't apply yet or you are separated for her/him ?

The reason i am asking this because saw two people on this forum applied without any ID or Residency proof and home office gave them settled status

Yes. I have applied for settle status two weeks ago and did not submit his copy of id and for his proof of residence only 2 p60 a tv licence and they were not covering 5 years. After I submit I did call them and explain that we are separated and he refuses to help with my application.

Looks like we 3 in a same situation. I have applied for settled status and just submitted mu EEA2 residence card. Will upload if they ask for something else what i have is 2 p60s and a single council tax bill covering a year. But I have not heard anything from HO since i received my COA. Called twice and was told to wait as my application is with case worker and is under decision making stage.

Another question I asked home office . Sylvia is not real name
Question

Dear Home Office, I’m an EU national. I married a NON EU national 9 years ago. We are seperated from long time and not living together. We are thinking to start divorce proceding soon. I decided not to apply for EU Settled status at this moment but my ex husband would like to apply now. He is asking for my 5 years residency proof and Photo ID.............Will i have problem later if i give my 5 years residency proof and Photo ID so he can apply ? as i told you we are not living togethher anymore, Thanks


Dear Sylwia,

Thank you for your question about how to apply for the EU Settlement Scheme.

To be eligible to apply for the EU Settlement Scheme as a non-EU family member who has retained the right of residence, the applicant must usually:

· Be a non-EU citizen who has ceased to be a family member of a relevant EU citizen on the termination of their marriage.
· Have been resident in the UK at the date of the termination.
· Have been married to the EU citizen for at least 3 years prior to the initiation of the proceedings for the termination of the marriage, and the parties to the marriage had been continuously resident in the UK for at least 1 year during its duration.

As you have stated, you and your husband are not yet divorced, but are separated. Due to this, we may be able to offer a degree of evidential flexibility, however this would be down to the caseworker assessing the application. If you were to provide the documents your husband has requested, it would not impact your future application in any way, and this is a decision for you to make. When you come to make your own application however, you would need to have a form of valid ID (either a valid passport or identity card) so you would not be able to apply until you received this back.

If your husband has previously been issued a status with you as his EEA sponsor, this can also help us to establish a relationship.


When your husband applies (if you do not provide ID or proof of residency) he’ll need proof of:

· His identity.
· His residence in the UK, unless he has a valid permanent residence document, or valid indefinite leave to remain or enter the UK.
· His relationship to you (i.e. Marriage Certificates).
In this situation, it may be beneficial for your husband to upload a letter as evidence explaining the situation so that the caseworker assessing the evidence he has provided can have a better understanding of the situation.
If any further evidence is required, then this will be requested by a caseworker. We would work with your husband to provide whatever evidence he can to establish residency and relationship if you decide not to provide the documents in question.

So basically you can apply even with just marriage certificate and your residency proof and your passport and home office will do the rest

I think they are still running checks on your spouse and maybe some people got it because through that checks case worker were able to establish that spouse's 5 years residence. When I apply first I have received an email from home office asking for proof of mine and my spouse's 5 years residence and his copy of id. I have not replied to email and after two weeks of this email I have received a second email but this time they were only asking between 2016 and March 2018 and not copy of his id. I did call them asked them why it was just last 2.5 years as opposed 5 years and they told me that they have lost his footprint after 2016! That means they had a check on him even though I have no provided his National Insurance number and I am 100% sure that he has not applied yet. That makes me a bit nervous as I said before maybe the reason that couple of other people got their settle status because home office did check on their spouse and established the 5 years residence.

Yes. I uploaded my proof of residence and p60 for 2016 and 2017 for my husband. After i sent the email I called the resolution centre and told them that i was not able to provide full 5 years proof of residence for my husband and they told me they put that as a note to the caseworker. If you miss docs they are sending you an email which states what is missing for your aplication.

Count me in tOo
I am separated too
I applied on 8th of April and enrolled my biometrics next day
In the end of my application they asked me to upload 3 documents my passport, any letter or statement from last 6 months and marriage certificate.

I received my COA 28 April and after that nothing
Called them many time and they say the same thing “ waiting for the case worker to check my file”
😔
I dont know how long they need more ..

Bunny47 is right this waiting is a torture.

Guys, the truth about Non-Eu separated from their Eu wife is that they may not get a decision until divorce is finalized. I am saying this because i am in the same boat. i applied 31st of March and did Biometric same day and the Coa received on the 5th of April.

Since then, i have been calling the resolution center every week and they've always said everything is okey your file is with your case worker. But last week i spoke with a very nice lady who was very helpful and after a very friendly conversation, she said let me just tell you the truth. They are waiting for final divorce papers...if you get this you'll get a decision.

Then this week, i called again and got a different person a man in their team who told me the same thing. He asked what stage am i in the divorce process. I told him the final stage because my Eu wife has signed and then he said send a copy as soon as its finalized because you will not get a decision until they received this as i will be considered for status under retained rights. I thought i should share this because it is important so you don't wait in vain thinking why its not happening.

if you haven't started your divorce proceedings, it might be a good idea to to so as soon as possible. Good luck guys.
