Update:

I'm non-EEA (Russian) married to EEA, who's QP in UK. I'm in UK on EEA FP.

My timeline so far is as follows:

1st Application posted on: 09/09/2019
1st Application Received by UKVI/HO on: 10/09/2019
1st Payment taken on: 11/09/2019
1st COA Without Work: 20/09/2019 (dated 17/09/2019). Reason for no work in COA - no original ID of sponsor
Documents Returned with rejection letter: 23/10/2019. Reason: No original ID of sponsor
My mistake was I believed if they acknowledged the lack of ID in September, they will not reject in October. 1.5 months wasted. Good that my husband received his National ID card in the meantime.


2nd Application posted on: 24/10/2019
2nd Application Received by UKVI/HO on: 25/10/2019
2nd Payment taken on: 28/10/2019
Bio letter: received: 6/11/2019 (dated 01/11/2019)
Bio submitted: 7/11/2019
2nd COA With Work: 21/11/2019 (dated 18/11/2019)
Update:

Resident Card Received on: 05/02/2020 (card dated 03/02/2020)
Documents Returned on: 05/02/2020

Very long wait and card is only valid till 30/06/2021
