Hello, I am hoping someone can help advise on a rather complex case. I am looking for my current employer to sponsor me on a Tier 2 (general) visa. I currently have a Residence Card which is set to expire in July 22 2018 and my employer is threatening to dismiss me on 23 July 2018 because they (wron...

thanks to all for suggestions for my situation. I've decided to appeal the PR refusal, which if unsuccessful, then I will renew my RC- which will have to wait a few months because I don't think the Passport Checking service is available for RC applicants (and I need my passport for travel already bo...

I'm assuming that I cannot rely on the section in the letter which states 'that the earliest date that you could potentially be entitled to permanent residence as the direct family member of x, provided that he continues to exercise Treat rights as an EEA national , is 22 July 2018' Correct. That l...

haha that may be very true. I cannot see anywhere where the cost of appeal is, but I will dig around. I spoke to a lawyer and do not think it is worth the £300 consultation fee but if the appeal fee is somewhere closer to the cost of the PR application, then I might just take my chances knowing full...

in your opinion (and I do see in your footer that this should not be taken as legal advice), is it worth appealing this decision to refuse on the grounds given in the letter? Or request a reconsideration? I realise it is a total punt given that my application is likely to fail on the CSI grounds, bu...

thank you for the link, I have had a look and doubt he can meet the £7,755 threshold. That is disappointing. I'm assuming that I cannot rely on the section in the letter which states 'that the earliest date that you could potentially be entitled to permanent residence as the direct family member of ...

that is very clear, Simon. One final curveball and I think I will be very clear on how to proceed- the period where we do not have CSI (June 2014 to June 2015) my husband was working. He was teaching a few hours per week as part of his PhD studentship- but I suspect that his full-time student status...

hi again, thank you for this suggestion- when I apply for PR again I will include the Foreign Birth registration as evidence of husband being except from UK immigration rules (starting from the date he was on registrar). Most helpful! There is, however, one problem that may be cause to refuse a new ...

Hello, many thanks for your kind response. I had (wrongly) thought that residence card confirmed Right to Reside but from what you write it seems it confirms that husband was exercising treaty rights, is that correct? Yes, it is the case that husband obtained an Irish passport AFTER having entered t...

Hi all, I have been refused LPR and am writing to see if I have grounds for an appeal or reconsideration. I am a non-EEA spouse of an EEA citizen. I am American, he is American and has an Irish passport. He has a registration certificate and I have a residence card to evidence our Right to Reside in...
