Good day everyone. I just wanted to get a piece of advice regarding my situation.
I am non eu married to eu national for 6 yrs until present. I was married Feb. 2013, my wife and I live together for 3 yrs, then we decided to get seperated after 3 yrs but never divorse. Year 2016, she went back to Italy, and shes been away like 6-7 months, then she came back to uk to work. For some reason, she decided again to go back to Italy Dec. 2018. Before she left, she is aware that may Residence Permit will be expiring Jan 2019. So she left her passport, and p60 together with all her payslip incase I applied for PR before my Visa expired. By January 2019, I applied for PR, but I was denied, for the reason of invalid ID from my wife, as her passport was reported as lost and stolen. Anyway, after 6 months of trying to get in touch with her, she finally contacted me, and she said she will apply for the settlement scheme. Not sure weather she will be qualified as she has been out of the Uk since Dec. 2018, and for me If I am eligible to apply as my Visa already expired sinced January 2019. so technically I am a overstayer, and not allowed to be in the UK as my wife was not in here.My question is, Do you think if she applied for the scheme, even though she is not here in UK, will the HO accept her application? And if I link my application to her, would it be a problem because my Residence Permit already expired last January 2019? My applogies for my long post, if someone could share the same boat as mine, please kindly share your exp. Thank you so much.

Did u have your EEA permit during the time you were together? If you completed 3 years you can apply on your own, will take some time but at least once coa comes you will not be overstayer.
Do it through their website you have nothing to lose keep that expired permit safe as that is main document that will get you settled status

Hi iibdii, thank you for your reply,
I have a valid Residence Permit as a Family member of EU national, issued by HO during that 3 yrs. My only concern is, if I am eligible to to apply even my Residence permit expired last January 2019, because she has been away in thw uk since dec 2018, I shouldnt be allowed to be here either? Anyway, i will try to apply for this scheme, if they accept my application, great. But if not. Then bettter to leave. Goodluck to all your application guys. Hope everyone get their pre-settled and settled status.

I won't advice you to.I did that I guess it's complicating matters.I'd rather you wait for them to ask for any additional document.That's just my opinion based on personal experience and the interactions I had with them I spoke to them on different occasions.I have actually regretted.I am still waiting and hoping for the best.

The waiting is alarming! Please just want to ask if anyone know how long it takes to receive a decision after COA, it took 6 weeks for me to get it and now I dont know how long I have to wait for the decision.

Hi, May I ask when did you recieved your COA? Thanks

@K, I received it on the 4th of October. 6 weeks after Biometrics.

Hi, I recieved mine 30th of Sept. In the COA its says " you will recieved a decision shortly" but the question is how long is that "shortly" a weeks a month or a year? we dont know. Some people here they havent recieved anything even coa for more than 2-3 months. This is really frustrating

Hi K, any news? A friend of mind that I helped submit the application just got his yesterday, barely 3 weeks and am here still waiting. It's so funny but such is life. Dont really get it and why there is so much delay. I said I wont call the resolution centre but at this rate, I think I will call to give them a small notch in my direction. The wait is killing.

Hi Congratulations.

Please can you share your timeline and also advise what nationality was your wife and what document she had to provide ?

Many Thanks
Asad

My overall timeline:
Wife: Singaporean.
Got married October 2014 in Singapore - was a dual Irish/British citizen.
Renounced British citizenship November 2014. Now only Irish.
EU family permit achieved ~January 2015.
She arrives here (Northern Ireland) February 2015.
Biometric Residence Card achieved ~June 2016.
Applied for pre-settled status May 2019:
Didn't have to submit too much in the way of documentation due to previous BRC application. Think it was a few months' worth of bank statements, our passports, and a scan of the residence card. Didn't have to provide the marriage certificate again (it has my old UK passport number on it, so didn't want to risk confusion from that anyway).
Not sure when COA was received, it's probably in her Junk folder lol.
Pre-settled status received October 2019.
I guess we'll be trying to upgrade it to settled in February, but we don't have many documents from the first few years because we sent them all with an Irish citizenship application for her last year, which was rejected, and they refuse to give back any documents proving residence... hopefully we can just print off P60s or something.

Congratulations that certainly took some time, could i ask you did you mention your British nationality at all in her pre settlement application or if they asked anything?

I am in same dilemma was given EU family permit without needing to renouncing the British nationality, that one is finished now and partner is still dual so i am afraid its gonna be an issue. Applied 6th August so only 2 months yet, evidence were requested last month and further request this month all submitted.
