Qman wrote:Hey guys, you don't have to listen to my complaints anymore... Finally received my RC... Total duration 123 days (plus blood, sweat and tears)

Thanks to all for the info provided, I should be an expert on EU applications by now.

I'll still pop in and out of the forum cos the schengen visa situation looks like a minefield.

Good luck to those still awaiting news on their applications.

Congract Qman. Enjoy your RC!

Hi everybody! I become really impatient now, cause I apply EEA2 in July 26, and as I understand people who apply in July receive their RC. Every day I wait a postman!!! Does anybody who apply in July call and ask about their card to Home Office?
Good luck for everyone who is waiting, and congratulation who already received!!

Any update from Aug applicant plsssssssssss

Hi Vaneska I applied same time as you I am still waiting for my RC. This morning I called them to change my address and she immidately updated on comupter my details and she took my number. she mentioned that my application is still with them. I ask her how long it will take but she said they cant give any information over the phone regarding EEA2 they have limited access to share infomation to applicant. Now I dont have any option apart from waiting. Good luck for everyone whose waiting for their RC.

Hi!
I apply in July, and I called to HO to change my details. I ask him how long it will take but they cant give any information about EEA2 before when 6 month waiting.

If anybody sent to HO pre-paid envelope, your maybe have one more option. Go to Royal Mail www, and try Track and Trace service. Enter your 13 character reference number from your post receipt. Maybe your RC was sent today, and you can know about it one day before then postman knock to your door

Maverickstoned, thank you for you support!

1) Anybody already recieved RC by Royal Mail in another day, than Saturday? (if you used the pre-paid envelope by Royal Mail)?

2) We think about ask UKBA about return my passport. I already really need passport for bank, etc, and next month I probably will need to travel...How do you think, just return passport is very bad idea?

Good luck for everyone who waiting for their RC and congratulation who already received, please update!

P.S. Sorry about mistakes.

Just want to ask you one more question, when you asked HO for a passport, did they give you temporary visa, with which you can travel? Cause for example my visa ended in September, so if I required for passport now, i will not come back to UK.

Hi Godson!
They are recieved passport first, and after several days/weeks RC?
Or they are requested for their passports and received passport and RC in in one pack?

Vaneska wrote: Just want to ask you one more question, when you asked HO for a passport, did they give you temporary visa, with which you can travel?

No. You did not have "temporary visa".
I read in this forum, that several people travel with their EEA national husband/wife, CoA, marriage certificate by car, boat.
But I am not sure, if enter UK just with this documents is 100% no problem. I hope that it is OK, but I am not sure.
And I read, that travel by flight might be problem, if you don't have valid visa or residence card.

P.S. Sorry about mistakes.

No they don't give temporary visa. Mine is still valid till end if Nov, but returned all my document and residence card. If your application is 3 months or more, they most likely to send u residence card. Best of luck.

Hello dotsystem, did you ask HO about return your passport for travel? How long time from date of your application you ask about passport? I will need my passport for travel soon...And still don't have RC.

intriganka2008, whose wage slips did you send? The EU national's or the Non-EU national's?

seputus

EU nationals

so u sent the eu national payslips,, the best u can do so they cant reject it is to send ur eu letter of employment issued by the employer stating that she/he has been working siince until present day..

they cant refuse this

Yes I did, I asked them for my passport to travel.[/quote]


Do you said some special reason why you need travel? Or they didn't ask you? How long it takes after your requesting receive passport?
Can somebody give me the telephone number of HO where I can ask about RC?
