we received the delivery notification yesterday. Thank god.

the address we were asked to send it to is: Freepost XXXX-XXXX-XXXX Returns Unit (BRC Correction) P.O. Box 163 Bristol BS20 1AB It's now been 10 working days since they have received it, and no response. Starting to get worried now as we have booked a trip in two weeks. I called the hotline and they...

True, and that's very fortunate. Would have been awkward if we had gone to travel with it.

Probably someone who received a card with the same error has pointed it out to them, and they recalled the whole batch?

Hi all, today, just about two weeks after receiving her residence card, my spouse received another letter from Home Office. It says the card should be cut and sent back within 5 working days because of an error during printing. It claims the header incorrectly says "Residence Permit" (which it does)...

Hi, my (non-EEA) spouse has applied for a RC in February. As we intend to travel before August (a close friend is getting married) and her FP has expired, we have requested our passports and wedding certificate, which is in Farsi to be returned including the translation. A week later the passports w...

how does one do that?

nothing. She could open a bank account, or I could assign another bill to her.

*bump*

ok, so we submit:

- phone bill (her name)
- GP registration (her name)
- Electricity bill (my name)
- water bill (my name)
- council tax bill (my name)
- bank statement (my name)

Is that sufficient to prove cohabitation?

because we have just gotten married 6 months ago and my spouse didn't have visa? We supplied tons of evidence (photos, chat logs) for the EEA Family permit, should we do this again?

Hi, we are about to send an EEA2 application (residence card) and we're wondering how to document living together. My spouse (non-EEA) has just moved in with me (EEA citizen) and we haven't lived together previously. So far she has two of the documents listed below confirming her address, a phone bi...

Hi, I am a EU Citizen living in UK and my non-EEA spouse is about to apply for EEA family permit from her home country. the FAQ here states: Q2: What do I need to submit with the EEA FP application? If you are married to a EEA national and you travel to the UK together (or to join the EEA national) ...

thanks. We just don't want to give the impression that we are trying to hide anything.

(edit:)
We are worried that if they find out it might make the ECO biased against us. Is this concern justified? What would the best way to counter it?

Hello, my fianceé and I are preparing to apply for a fianceé visa. A family member of hers is an illegal alien in the EU. She had been refused a Schengen (90 day visitor's) visa two years ago, and among the reasons given was this family member's situation (primary reasons were her holding neither jo...

oh, and about the EEA family permit: Can one apply for it from outside the EEA? Cause my gf currently lives outside of the EEA. We had applied for a Schengen visiting visa once and it was rejected (gf had neither job not property in her home country, so they insinuated she planned to overstay). Don'...

sorry, not a native speaker. What I meant was for us to get married just legally without any festivities or guests.

I can't find anything in the appendix FM-SE about wedding party pictures.

Hi SoHopeful and thank you for your reply Firstly what citizenship do you hold? German You may be able to bypass all that and the financial requirement and just apply for a family permit. you mean after we marry? I gathered we were not eligible for family permit since we're not married yet Once marr...

hi, what is the better option, to apply for a fiancé visa (that is settlement/marriage, right?) and marry in the UK, OR marry in my fiancé's home country (outside EEA) and then apply for settlement/wife? I do understand she won't be allowed to work until we marry and she successfully applies to chan...

there's an 18600£ annual income requirement. Also, you'll need to prove your relationship is 'genuine and subsisting' and your fiancé should speak english

Hi, the hoops I had to jump through in order to create this account were incredible. Apparently both my DSL (TalkTalk) and mobile provider (GiffGaff) were IP banned. I mean seriously, WTF?! I'm sure you must have had some issues with abusive users, but banning all IPs from major ISPs means excluding...
