hiya and well done for your sucess
do you know where they made the brief phone call ?

To ease the confusion with this gargon, i thought i provide you with this information, which i hope will be helpful in equiping you knowledge with Chen Ruling. i rang home office again today and explain all the situation in detaild and she said yes we can apply but it will me for six months ILR and...

I wasn't aware that residence based on Chen was conditional on holding comprehensive sickness insurance cover. If it were, the old argument of NHS coverage could be used. After all, NHS coverage was lawfully held by you and it is the only comprehensive sickness insurance cover in the UK anyway. It ...

hello Ben wondering what is your thoughts for comments made by Obie please reply

If you are in any doubts, please refer to ECO guidance , and also the immigration rules 257C to 257E that deals with this area. On the basis of the law, i think the UKBA staff that adviced you, did not understand the law, as is usually the case, or just trying to say something beyond his or her rem...

I don't think this is right, under UK law, Chen cases are dealt with under national law and issued with "leave to remain" valid for five year, without any right to work over that period. The children are dealt with under the directive as a Self-Sufficient EEA national, but the parents are not consi...

As the parent of an Irish national child, you have the right of residence under EC law in the UK, in accordance with the ECJ ruling in the case of Chen. After five your of residence under EC law, you acquired the right of permanent residence. If you wish to receive confirmation of your right of per...

loverboy4alluk, You have acquired the right of permanent residence in the UK. This is the equivalent of Indefinite Leave to Remain. You are no longer subject to UK immigration controls. If you wish (and it is recommended) to apply for a permanent residence card, use form EEA4 . You are also now eli...

Sorry to hijack this thread, but this topic triggered a question in my mind. If a child is born in Ireland whose one of the parents are legally resided in ireland for the last 5 years, then the child is an irish national. How soon the child can apply for passport? I mean is there any limit that a c...
