EEA Family Permit or EU Settlement Scheme Family Permit

Post by hrak1978 » Sat Jan 18, 2020 8:41 pm

Dear Respected Seniors,

As always like I mentioned before this place is an encyclopedia of knowledge. I got my Settled status and my wife one through this site help.

Now I'm back again for more help.

I need an advise, I'm in the process of applying Family permit for my mother and brothers (wife and kids of my brothers as well, kids are not over 12 even).

Can you please advise which is suitable to apply EEA FP or EUSS FP? My dad is still exercising his treaty rights and got Settled Status as well.

Note: Both of my brothers are over 21.

After 31st January is it possible if they can apply for EU Settlement Scheme Family Permit? I presume they can but I want to be make sure before taking this step. Or your precious opinion please!

Please advise


Many thanks.

If your father is EU national then your brothers should apply EU settlement Family as close family members.
If you are sponsor then I am afraid they won't be able to apply under this scheme.

Hello

While there are some difficult routes to bring a dependent in the UK, I don't believe you can lodge an application for an entire family tree including parents, brothers, spouses and their kids.

However, what you are going to achieve is blacklisting all these people from getting visitor visas to the UK in the future. Once somebody shows an intention to use an immigration route to the UK, it will be hard for him to prove, even years later, that he just wants to come as a visitor.

Hi

I'm lodging an application not from my side but from dad side who is an EU national having settled status in UK.

So technically an EU national lodging an application for his non eu wife, kids and grand kids.

Is it possible? I am sure, it is possible.

Well an update the application has already been lodged yesterday all together for 7 family members who are all non eu national.

I will keep you updated on this, for this thing to happen I gathered proof from 2011 till to date.

Thank you.

All family member visa was approved in 3 weeks time. They were all arrived in UK on 18th March.

I would highly request to @Zerubbabel for being so negative. If you can't give solution then scared people.

I will request every single person don't stop for taking step in EU Settlement Scheme Family permit or from inside UK on basis of EU Settlement scheme.

They are extremely helpful people. I have spoken to them more than 50 times now. I got solution for every single query.

So good luck to all and don't be scared.

Could you please tell me when did you apply,and how did you get in touch with them.
I'm looking to apply for my husband but on Gov.uk says to do not submit any application now due to the pandemic.
Thanks

So you applied for 7 dependent relatives and just like that the Home Office sent back 7 acceptances. As you seem to have a lucky, just keep going and apply for more.

Well, that the craziest thing I read online this year.

I applied way before pandemic and even before it was announced all were approved.

Yes it is crazy but it is practical.

I have always been fan of Mr OBIE.

His guidance was and still a core ingredient on this whole gigantic board.

I think i always motivate to go for it under EU Settlement Scheme.

I think since British Immigration system has been in place from decades. This is the best system I can see.

I personally helped more than 80 peoples now and guess what all 80 of them have got through.

Wow that is incredible ! How much income did your dad prove he had to sponser 7 people ? Or is income not a requirement on this route ?

Also not sure if this applies to your case but was your dad of pension age ? If someone is of pension age would that be a reason for them to refuse to sponser wife and kids ?
