Re: EU settlement - Non EU family member - CoA and decision time

Sorry if this is a dumb question. But does anyone know what you physically get once you're granted pre-settled status. I"m EEA and my wife is non-EEA; she has a biometric appointment in two weeks' time. But if she gets pre-settled status, do they send her a residence card? We just want to know for t...

Re: EEA Route (Family Member)

Thank you for your reply Kamoe. And apologies for things getting a little heated and personal. I feel I also ought to explain that if a couple are in a position to apply for and be in possession of an EEA Family Permit BEFORE entering the UK, then by all means, there's no harm in going ahead and get...

Re: EEA Route (Family Member)

So, we’re agreed. It is not the case that “no one needs an EEA Residence Card” or an EEA Permit. But that if a couples’ legal status is the same as mine and my wife’s (an EEA citizen with a non-EEA visa-free passport spouse) then it is the case that they do not need such documents. In response to my...

Re: EEA Route (Family Member)

Nope it's only you. There is one other that also didn't correctly read my point about my wife's visa-free passport. But only you are stubbornly trying to assert that in a case such as mine, an EEA Family Permit or Residence Card is needed. It is not.

Re: EEA Route (Family Member)

Kamoe. You, for some reason, are trying to deter people from this legally sound EEA route. I’m suspicious as to why. (Using “we” as if you’re part of some army of experts is also particularly disingenuous). Our success was not the result of a gamble. It was the result of sound legal advice and month...

Kamoe. Who is this "we" you claim to be speaking on behalf of?

Re: EEA Route (Family Member)

I am well aware that many immigration officers are not fully conversant with the law. I'm also aware that the government try to make people think that the EEA Permit is a requirement. IT IS NOT. The government have admitted this. Please don't try and deter people who have every right to enter the UK...

Re: EEA Route (Family Member)

No this is not theory, it's the LAW. The 2016 regulations are clear. A person who is not an EEA national must be admitted to the United Kingdom if that person is— (a) a family member of an EEA national and produces on arrival a valid passport and qualifying EEA State residence card, provided the con...

EEA Route (Family Member)

I'd just like to explain my experience in order to help those planning the EEA-route. I have Irish citizenship but also had British citizenship. My partner has a St Kitts and Nevis passport (Commonwealth country; six months VISA free access to the UK). She was refused leave to remain the UK in March...

EU Citizen Getting Married to Non-EU Citizen After Brexit

I am an Irish (EU) citizen with settled status in the UK. However, my fiancé is a non-EU citizen and we will be getting married overseas in the summer. Under current EU rules I would then be able to enter the UK with me as an EEA citizen and my wife as a non-EU spouse of an EEA citizen. But what wil...
