Re: SHORT TERM STUDENT TO EEA PR

What would then be the option for the non-EEA person? Just need to re-apply for a different visa as a spouse of a british person right? (Though expensive...)..

Just thinking that since the RC will be invalid after brexit it's a good idea to be covered.. ?

Re: SHORT TERM STUDENT TO EEA PR

Once I have my EEA RC it doesn't matter anymore wether he has a EU or British passport right? Because he is entitled to an official UK Passport and been thinking of applying?

Re: SHORT TERM STUDENT TO EEA PR

No. We checked that, his passport is under the UN rules (UN blue passport) as he is a UN ambassador and the rule does not apply here.

Thanks.

Re: SHORT TERM STUDENT TO EEA PR

So you confirm that traveling with the EEA person and entering the UK (with a valid UK VISA still) but to ask to under the EU law is, although not very well received by the border, totally legal and legitimate?! Yes. When I first got my EEA RC, I still had a valid UK visa for nearly two years after...

Re: applying for permanent residence

Thank your for your response. I came to UK and started job in Dec 2012. I usually receive P60 in Apr/May every year. So I have only 4 P60's received so far: (1) May 2013, (2) May 2014, (3) May 2015, (4) May 2016. What exactly can I use as an alternative of the 5th one? Contact HMRC at this address ...

Re: Sheffield Visa Section - EEA FAMILY PERMIT

Don't appeal. Reapply it will be quicker.

And I suggest you get a lawyer, and in your cover letter your mention that all documents have been provided to the VFS (if you didn't supply your passport VFS would have not send it..)

Good Luck..

He has arrived to the UK on Aug 9th and I've applied on the 16th. I don't really understand why does it matter if I'll stay in the UK or not. The Family Permit gives me the right to join him there regardless of the fact if I'm staying or not. I'm not sure of why does it take so long, maybe the fact...

I can only suspect that he didn't stay in the UK for very long before you apply and doesn't have a lot of proof that you will stay in UK for the future. Maybe this is why it takes long...
