It makes the Home Office at least to find and open your application, I believejossywilliams wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 8:49 pmCongratulations! Do you think MP letter does really change anything?
Well, general replies all the time. However, I called many times and spoke with the same supervisor all the time, she probably got sick of me in the endeke123 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 7:21 pmSo you got your decision today?murmurka wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2020 2:27 pmApplication: 16 Jan 2020

Pardon me I'm curious to know cos I'm still waiting
Thanks
Correct but not a good time to apply. As i sent my documents 2 months ago and dvla is not sure where my original documents are. I had applied for nhs job so thinking i will be a critical worker I applied for dvla. And dvla is unable to locate my documents. And i cant further process for the job as i dont have my id with me and my euss case is stuck for more than 6 months. God knows whats next. Also need advice if i should report to police coz m not sure if my documents are lostBoo47 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 7:52 amHi optimisticnow,
Recently I received from DVLA the completion form to apply for my provisional driving licence, so i'm planning to send my documents on Monday, because after doing a research on their website, it says if you are non eu citizen you have to prove your permission to live in UK, for close family member of eu citizen as spouse no need for physical residency document because we have the right to live in the UK until the 30th of June 2021 without residence card but on the same website it says if you are an extended family member of eu citizen as brother or sister you need a physical residency document to apply.
Also I found out not on the same website that if you're waiting for a decision you don't have the right to apply, but this is a general condition I think.
In my case as i'm non eu spouse of eu citizen I have permission to live in the UK until the 30th of June 2021, so I will send my documents and a letter explaining my rights just to make it clear for the guy who will treat my file.
Good luck
.
I did get my picture and form signed. I sent my coa passport and my marriage certificate.Boo47 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 11:02 amHi alijee 786,
Recently I went on online chat with DVLA the lady said you don't need someone else to verify my identity ( to sign my picture and form) if I send an original photo ID card.
Can you please explain which documents did you send with your application? Because i'm confused about sending my COA, I'm thinking maybe the guy who will treat my file will consider I don't have the right as i'm still waiting for my residency decision, that's why I want to send:
1/ my EEA residence card 2004/38 ( also known article 10 residence card not issued in the uk).
2/ my marriage certificate ( to show i'm married to eu citizen).
3/ a copy of my partner europeen ID
4/ a cover letter to explain that I have permission to live in the UK until the 30th of June 2021 as i'm a close family member of eu citizen.
So please can you give me your opinion.
Thank you

Just received an email with my status today and it is a positive. I am really quite happy this is over. I hope everyone will be able to get his/her status soon.
My advice if your case is straightforward as mine is to go formal and raise a formal complain stating your rational for why you should no longer wait for a decision. Last time I spoke with a superviser was a week ago I asked to raise a complain and I guess this was another reason they dealt with my application.
My time is
Application applied 27/01/2020
COA received 14/03/2010
Decision received by email 09/06/2020
Do not give up there is always a light end of the canal!!!!
Wish you all best of luck
Hi, congratulations on receiving your decision. Please how to I get to speak to a supervisor as I have only been able to speak to call centre agents at UKVI who always told me they can't really do much for me beyond e mailing the case worker. I would love to know how I can get through directly to a supervisor.Mando wrote: ↑Tue Jun 09, 2020 3:21 pmHi everyone

After calling the EU call center several times I realized that there isn't a point of talking to them but I asked them to put in my record that I am disappointed with the timely processing of my application. Then I saw a piece of advice from one of our fellow members here advising to write a formal complaint to UK Visas and Immigration. you can use this link https://www.gov.uk/government/organisat ... -procedureOla04 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 09, 2020 11:33 pmHi, congratulations on receiving your decision.

I don't think you need a soothsayer to advice you on thisNasara1 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 8:26 pmHi guys
I've been following this forum for nearly a year now.It has been a real inspiration.God bless all those who contribute in diverse ways.
On Friday I had a call from the home office concerning my application that I submitted in June last year.
The case worker asked me to provide documents to prove my residence for two years of the five that I am relying on because their system couldn't prove I was here and the passport of my ex wife.
I told her straight away that I've got only her expired passport.
She sent me email the following day asking me to provide a valid passport or the expired one if I don't have the valid one.The catch is with the expired one it's not a guarantee that I'll be issued with my settlement status.However that can be reviewed.So I sent all the requested documents with copy of the expired passport.
I have now managed to get my ex to give me her current valid passport.
Do you think I should upload that one as well or leave them to make a decision based on the documents I sent to them.
Please your advice will be appreciated.Thank you all in advance.

Hi,eke123 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 9:06 pmHello everyone
I've heard back from my MP
And this is what HO replied
On 18 January 2020, Mr xxx applied under the EU Settlement Scheme. I am sorry for the delay in concluding his application.
The published processing times for applications under the EU Settlement Scheme specify that applications usually take between five working days and a month to process. However, processing times can be extended where:
* A caseworker needs to request more information from the applicant
* An applicant is applying as a minor and their application is not linked to an adult
* They submit a paper application
* They have a relevant criminal record
* The applicant is a non-European Economic Area or non-Swiss citizen and is applying based on a relationship they have not relied on in a previous application to the Home Office.
As Mr xxx is applying under the EU Settlement Scheme based on a relationship that he has not relied on in a previous application to the Home Office, his application will take longer to process. In these instances, processing times will vary on a case-by-case basis.
Part of the application process entails routinely conducting checks with other government departments and external agencies. The extent and length of time taken to complete these checks varies according to the particular circumstance of each application, and only once these checks are complete can a decision be made on whether to issue status under the EU Settlement Scheme. However, the progress of these checks is regularly monitored.
So far, our enquiries have not been completed with regards to Mr xxx's application. We are continuing to process applications during this time, however, due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic we have changed our working practices to keep both staff and customers safe. In light of this, I am unable to provide a timescale as to when a decision will be made as applications may take longer than usual to conclude and we kindly ask for your patience during this period.
Once a decision has been made, Mr xxxxx will be notified accordingly.
So I'm wondering what kind of checks they're conducting with other government departments and external agencies.
Application 18/01/2020
Biometrics 27/01/2020
COA 16/04/2020.
My wife has been granted settled status and I submitted our marriage certificate and my three year old sons birth certificate.
Can some shed a light on this please
Im confused
