Will switching to a Settled status card wipe off your eligibility for BC obtained with the extra year after acquiring PR

Interesting. I am not from the EU and my PR is backdated to March 2016 but I didn't feel as compelled to naturalise when they announced the settlement scheme.

Also, this post for comparison with pros and cons will give you a good idea. That's a very useful post, thanks. So if your current passport allows visa free travel to EU countries, it shouldn't be an issue to switch? (not that I will) Are there healthcare benefits (or other types of benefits) assoc...

Do you have a permanent residence card? If you do, it should be very easy to obtain a UK passport for the baby. I think it took a week to get ours after applying in person on the baby’s behalf at the passport office. Because you’re in Cornwall, it may be a hassle if there isn’t a passport office nea...

Glad I checked this thread again. It’s really annoying to have to carry all these documents with you when you travel.

I’ll likely apply for British citizenship to avoid this and the hassle if I lost the card.

Hello. This question has been asked a lot but I've seen different answers. I am a permanent resident with a biometric residence permit (BRP) and settled status. I need to apply for a new passport because I'm running low on blank pages. I think the answer is "No" to all of the below but I want to con...

Have an non-EU members with a biometric permanent residence card and settled status travelled without the card?

I'm curious if you could prove your status using the settled status system at immigration at the airport.

If you can borrow an Android device from someone you can download the app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.gov.HomeOffice.ho1) and start the application from there. No data is stored on the device and the application continues online after the relevant data is collected using the app.

Does anyone know if the biometric permanent residence card is still required for non EU citizens with Settled Status when travelling outside the UK? I know the card number is used to authenticate when using the HO site to prove your status but is it neeeee for other purposes? Given that you need to ...

The Settled Status decision letter and the Immigration Rules Appendix EU both use the phrase indefinite leave to remain: EU1. This Appendix sets out the basis on which an EU citizen and their family members, and the family members of a qualifying British citizen, will, if they apply under it, be gra...

With a biometric permanent residence card, I was granted ILR within 24 hours.

My wife and I applied. We both already have permanent residence status but we are awaiting the resuls of our applications. I thought the app was very easy to use but I work in the tech industry so I may not be the best example. It crashed once when when trying to scan my face. If you have permanent ...

I called the Passport Office and they said I still needed to supply evidence such as P60s and a letter from an employer showing that my wife exercised treaty rights for 5 years even though my wife has a Document Certifying Permanent Residence. Is this definitely the case? They said I could apply usi...

Hello. We’d like our newborn to visit his mother’s family in Europe as soon as possible. I picked up a paper passport application and it seems like we need to fill it out and include his mother’s passport and document confirming permanent residence as evidence of his claim to British nationality. Is...

Hello. My passport has just a few empty pages left and I will be applying for permanent residence soon. My current passport has an EEA2 residence permit vignette. Would I receive another vignette in my passport or is a card issued? I found a thread that suggests it's card but it's from a couple of y...

Next year, I will have had a residence permit I obtained using an EEA2 application as an extended family member for five years. I will likely submit an application for permanent residence. We married this year so would I apply as a family member or an extended family member? The only information I c...

Apologies for bumping the thread, but does anyone have any insight into this?

My wife has a document confirming her permanent residence status. It was issued before we got married and so it has her maiden name. In the next year, we will need to submit a few other applications and her passport and national identity card both have her new surname. Will there be any issues becau...

I'm in a similar situation and was actually just going to post something similar. My wife is an EEA national but hasn't yet applied for citizenship. I am a citizen of a non EEA country and have an EEA2 residence card as an extended family member (this was before we got married). Is it worth it for h...

Hello. My wife received a confirmation of permanent residence card and wants to apply for citizenship. We married after she obtained the PR card and she has taken my surname. The permit, however, has her maiden name. Can she still apply for citizenship? Thanks.

This answers my initial question: 29. Family members of eligible EU citizens (who can be either EU citizens or non-EU nationals) who are resident in the UK before we leave the EU will also be eligible to apply for settled status, provided that they too meet the criteria above and have been in a genu...

Are there any details available on the status of non EU (extended) family members? Ie those with a five year residence permit (EEA2)?

The shorter application hosted on Dropbox has now been removed. It has been replaced by a new document stating that the official application must be used from 1 February 2017: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12881670/eea3_simple_v2.pdf These are the regulations cited: http://www.legislation.gov....

My partner received her confirmation card after using the shorter, older EEA3 application in a timely manner (about three months).

The passport return service was also very fast.

Thanks for your help.

Do you think it matters if the August 2016 payslip is missing?

All other payslips for 2016 are present.

very recently we requested our documents back ad It took 13 working days to get our documents back from HO How long did you wait to request them back after the confirmed receipt of the application? We're not banking on 10 working days but I've read you should wait 10 working days until you first re...
