Dear all,

At the risk of sounding impatient, how long does it take to get ones documents / passport back after winning the appeal?
I won my EEA4 appeal on the 18th Nov 2014.
We have not heard from HO since then.

Many thanks.

Dear all, Finally I won my PR as a spouse of a EU national. I have been advised to wait for 14 days in case HO decide to appeal against the judge's decision. Fingers crossed, I hope they won't appeal. Thanks to Obie and others for all your advise when I was going through this challenging time ...

My appeal was today, whilst presenting our case, the HO Presenting officer and the two judges present never asked me or my lawyer any questions. They just seem to nod in agreement,...Is that a good sign? The HO presenting officer advised us earlier before the hearing that he was happy and understood ...

Dear All, What exactly constitutes employment when it comes to EEA national exercising treaty right through employment? For instance: if EU national works for a multi national organisation (involving traveling around the world) salary is paid to the UK bank and also submits taxes in the UK, all the ...

Thanks Obie, very helpful link.

Should be OK. A case called Badhoo allows that. That was a response i got from the Presenting Officer, but i did tell the Judge that i don't see a need to dignify the response with an answer, as the appellant had been waiting for 8 months to have his case heard, and in light of Badhoo, the judge ...

These things do happen. I went to Hatton Cross few weeks back and was told, that the judge preceding over the case is of sick. We had to be put on the floating list, and did not get to see a judge until after lunch. To compound our misery, the HOPO submitted that the client could make another ...

Hello everyone, So I now have a new court appeal date in a month's time. The last appeal date was adjourned until further notice without giving me any good reasons. http://www.immigrationboards.com/eea-route-applications/eea4-refusal-appeal-case-adjourned-judge-not-available-t171850.html Question is ...

only because 5 months short your PR refused? Your EEA family exercised treaty right in the UK as a self sufficient since arrival in the UK ? What documents you send for EEA2 five years ago ? Can I apply for PR in my own right? No you can't do that. Your EEA family member need to exercise treaty ...

Dear all, Thanks for your replies to my earlier posts. My history: EEA4 refused (had CSI for 4.5 years instead of 5) Appealed...(bought new CSI) Appealed adjourned, no new date yet. Got dismissed from work coz my COA had expired since my case is still pending. Applied for new COA, now received ...

Hello everyone, I'm EEA national, my husband non EEA (USA). We've been living in UK for 9 years now. My husband got 5 year permit in 2006 based on self sufficiency, when that expired we were shocked to find that in order for him to apply for permanent residency I was supposed to have medical ...

Thanks Sam, I did send a request for a new one which was received two days ago!

I just wonder, whilst the application or case is pending can an employer dismiss an employee like my employer was threatening to?

Hi, I'm in the same boat as you... EEA4 refused, we appealed, a week ago ECS came negative! Called UKBA they advised on the phone that I should re-apply for another certificate but in the meantime as a spouse of a EU national I can still work. My employer, like many other employers doesn't ...

Thanks Obie, unfortunately HO emailed my employer a letter saying my certificate of application is expired so I have no right to work...

Dear all, Thank you for all your good advice you're giving everyone. My first post was on my permanent residency refusal due to csi. Second post was that the appeal date was adjourned until further notice. Two weeks after appeal adjournment, My employer received a letter from HO advising that I have ...

Hi all, From my previous post, I was to go for the hearing of my EEA4 refusal appeal due to only having my comprehensive cover for 4.5 years. Now it has been adjourned coz there's no judge to hear my case! Where are my rights here? Does the time they are wasting for me matter? Can I approach home ...

Saviana, it seems harsh that the Home Office would refuse PR just because you were 6 months short on CSI. The Home Office could choose to be lenient if they want but it seems they opted to be harsh. CSI cannot be backdated but now that you have bought new cover they might opt to be more lenient ...

I think a month should be fine, plus may be explain you can't remember the exact date!

My husband got 5 year permit in 2006 based on self sufficiency Then i think you will be fine. But you have to write a very good cover letter explaining to the case worker why you didn't have it for five years. Just buy one before sending I know one member recently similar case like yours issued PR ...

Hello everyone, I'm EEA national, my husband non EEA (USA). We've been living in UK for 9 years now. My husband got 5 year permit in 2006 based on self sufficiency, when that expired we were shocked to find that in order for him to apply for permanent residency I was supposed to have medical ...

Did you have CSI continuously for 4.5 years or was it broken? It must be continuous. If it was continuous, did you work for half a year just before or just after your period of self-sufficiency? If so, this means you exercised Treaty rights continuously for 5 years which makes you eligible for PR ...

I'm sure there are more qualified advisors here, but this is my little take on your situation. It is sad that your mum is sick, if. I'd say work hard here save money and bring your mum here instead of this back and forth, going to see her. Since you have PR you can invite relatives here so long as u ...

Under the 10-year route, he would still need to prove that he was legally resident throughout the 10 years he has been in the UK, so he would still have to provide proof of your exercising of Treaty rights. For your time as a self-sufficent person to be counted as legal residence and consequently ...

Hi , I had the same problem as yourself and mine was refused because of the comprehensive sickness insurance, i obtained it from http://www.freedomhealthinsurance.co.uk/quote?A=162 and they understood why i needed it etc and gave me a policy that the Home Office would be happy with, i reapplied and ...

Thanks Vinny.
I've read a bit on lassal case... It's a little bit similar but not that much.
She has more time in the EU than me.
She doesn't have to deal with EU spouse's job and an expired CSI...
Though reading through her notes I found that helpful thanks.
