Hi Guys i hv sent my EEA2 on 26th of April and still waiting for COA :( i Called to HO many time but they said now they are taking 5 to 6 week to issue COA So did I, methinks tomorrow is the day! Takes about 5-6 weeks now to receive the COA. Its bank holiday Monday, so by tomorrow if I don't get an...

I received COA finally.Posted in very earlier April. It takes 5 and half weeks. Good luck to everyone. Do not worry, it will come, but just will take 5-6 weeks now. Now I formally join the long waiting team. :D YAY!! Congratulations Eileen :P I will wait for another 2 weeks then, seems like a month...

Whoops sorry, got the info other way round. Essentially you'd be charged the standard call rate!

A premium number usually has 084 headings... if I'm not mistaken. That number is the standard number (real number) of the Liverpool HO number, so depending on where you are and your phone plan, you'd be charged the standard rate.

Run a google search with the name of the recruitment agency and add the word "scam" with it. Its what I usually do. OTOH, there wouldn't be anything they could do with just a scanned copy of your passport... is there? Now if it were your bank details then its dodgy. I still think that it would be be...

Hi I am just looking for some clarification regarding my husbands visa. He is currently living with me here in UK (I am EU national he is non EU) on his 6 months EU Family permit, this expires in September. Do we have to wait until this is almost expired or can we apply for his EE2/residency card n...

It took me 2 months for my COA to come back. I was on a Working Holiday visa.

Conditions are that you need to apply 3 months before your current visa expires, and your current visa has to be longer than 6 months. Though they are considering people without legal status now.

Good luck!

Another Monday rolls around and still no COA.

Anybody with any luck so far? Is it just me that has a feeling that they send out COAs en masse? So none of us April batch has gotten that stupid letter. Luckily I've deferred my interview till end of June if not I would be so depressed

I sent EEA2 application on april 20th this year, I haven't received any confirmation of my application yet. What would you...

Hey Meg, I'm not sure about that I'm afraid, but read through the messages in this thread because I remember something being said about requesting the passports back and the application still going through. Honestly, this is a disgrace on UKBA's part :( unfortunately there's nothing we can do about ...

I sent my EEA2 application on 27 April 2010, received by HO on 28 April 2010. So far I have not received the COA and I'm calling HO every day to check the status. I have a job offer waiting for me but I don't have my passport or COA to prove my eligibility to work in the UK. Does anyone know if I c...

Hi guys! Thanks so much for this thread, I've reading it the entire morning! I've now got more info than I've ever dreamed. I didn't even know about the COA and that I'd be able to work during that time, which is fantastic. My current update. I'm Malaysian and my husband is South African but holds a...
