Advice on limbo situation

I am currently in UK on a tier 5 visa which expires in a few days. I work full time and I have been waiting for the Settlement Scheme result for over a month. I applied after getting married to an EU National in April and didn’t anticipate it taking as long as it has. I’m now in a situation where I’...

Re: Settlement Scheme: Stuck on Identity Document Check

I have a situation where I sent my passport into the home office for checking early this month for the settlement scheme. I received it back last week, however the website still says I need to send my identity documents in within 30 days (which is coming up soon). Has anyone else encountered this p...

Re: Identity Document Processing Times

I’d be interested to see others experience with sending identity documents into the EU Settlement Scheme and when they were returned. It’s been over a week for me and I wondered if everyone had similar experiences. Both me and my EU national husband: Identity Documents Sent: 4 April Returned: ? Any...

Re: When will the EEA-route be closed?

...apply for a Residence Card or Pre-Settled Status (or both). I would apply for one or the other. I believe I read somewhere in the depths of the HO docs that if there is a pending immigration application (in this case, the EEA residence card one) at the time of the EU Settlement Scheme applicatio...

Re: EEA Family Permit or EU Settlement Scheme?

Thank you so much! Your thread was quite reassuring in clarifying my doubts! My only worry now is that if we apply for the Settlement Scheme after the registration and I am still on my Visitor visa will I have to leave the country and re-enter after the settlement has been granted or as the rights ...

Re: EEA Family Permit or EU Settlement Scheme?

Hi, I had a very similar enquiry earlier this month, some of the replys might help you. My feeling from it is to just use the EU Settlement Scheme route if it’s still applicable at that time depending on how the brexit situation pans out over the coming month etc. https://www.immigrationboards.com/e...

Re: Settlement Scheme or Residence Card?

Silly me, I just realized you can only apply with the app if you have a Residence Card, so I think you will need to send your documents by post. This will make the application processing time longer, but probably not much longer (?) Ah yes I see, I did wonder about this too because when I apply I’l...

Will there be a problem with me doing that while being here currently under Tier 5? When does your Tier 5 expire? And where are you getting married? Thanks a lot for that info. The wedding is end of April and my visa expires mid May. It is a little fine, and I’m trying to see about moving the cerem...

Hello, Currently I’m on a Tier 5 Working Visa which is soon set to expire. I am marrying my partner who is a Swedish National in April before it expires.
