No I haven't, my solicitor decided to apply again with a cover letter explaining the issue. Just before the Coa arrived he told to write an email to my ex wife asking for her passport, he then sent a copy of the email and my ex response, where she refused to help. This time around he asked me to se...
Hello Everybody Just and update on my case. Today my solicitor informed me that the HO had yet again refused my visa application on the basis that my ex wife id was not provided. However what i did provide was, a photocopy of her driver license and also copies of emails i sent her asking for her pa...
I’d argue justifiably that a divorce from an ex spouse where there’s no amicability constitutes as “grounds beyond control” to provide evidence of identity. The key is to be make it clear the relationship has broken down and there’s no contact. It’s like asking someone who’s been in a domestic viole...
It might be helpful to say at this point it'll be helpful to look at my posts on the forum to understand that my comments aren't formed on theory but based on practice and personal experience as i've been through a similar journey. When an application is submitted under the EEA regulations for a res...
On the second refusal reason however, I'm not aware of any changes in the regulations that make it mandatory to provide evidence of identity for an ex-spouse when there is decree absolute present (if anyone has it please share). Regulation 21(5) , offset by Regulation 42 . (Has someone a warped sen...
My understanding was that the application for PR was "refused on the grounds that I didn't provide evidence of ID from my ex wife, and also the application was made too early". The OP did not acquire PR status until March 2017, however the application was submitted in February 2017 so that refusal p...
I'm not going to say try and forget about it, because its simply impossible to do so, when you think about the magnitude and importance attached to BC in this current hostile climate. I've seen straight forward applications take upwards of 8-9months and even longer and others arrive within 3 months....
Sorry, my mistake, I just rather stressed right now. Married 21 March 2012 Divorced April 17 Solicitor didn't apply for ROR, she mistankely applied for PR in 10 February 17 Refused on the 18 September 17 I provided a copy of my ex driving licence, including a copy of the paper counter part, I found ...
Thanks for coming back with an update, good luck with your application for BC. Its good to know you have a plan for the children to get BC too. All the best
I totally agree going to the media is a double edged sword most especially with the rise of the far right out there. it's unfortunate and i'm sorry you've been through this awful ordeal. hopefully you can use your MP and rely on whats left of any credibility in the judicial system. i wish you all th...
As Fatimah as rightly pointed out, if your EEA spouse was exercising treaty rights from July 2012 to July 2017 then simply apply for PR. Until a decree absolute has been issued you are in law still married. I'm sorry to hear you're getting divorced, as i was once advised too, i advise you to try and...
Unfortunately if some things don't get brought out in the press you don't get justice, that's the hostile environment we now live in. Recent press coverage of what happens at the brook house detention centre clearly shows what's going on and has been going on for heaven knows how long and the powers...
I'm afraid no one can provide you with the reassurance you seek as your chances of getting what you seek is based largely on what you can provide to evidence your rights. The hostile environment isn't particularly helpful either. On a positive note, you may qualify for PR by combining multiple exerc...
As residence cards aren't mandatory to have, its not mandatory to have applied for a document confirming you have retained your rights following your divorce as long as you meet the requirements for ROR without applying for it. If you (non EEA) are economically active e.g working from 9/8/16 till 28...
Thanks for pointing out Richard W, my comment was based on the OP's initial post(only confused)rather than the hijack of the thread by AB1998, as its unclear if they have a DCPR also which is a prerequisite to apply for citizenship.
I feel the Home Office haven't over the years enforced EU law appropriately including appropriate safe guards against abuse of EU law, notably ensuring EU citizens are exercising treaty rights and if not ensure they leave. Neither have they clearly explained how PR is lost unless you take time to di...
Looking back at the OP's initial question, subsequent posts seem to have taken the conversation away from the question asked and may confuse the OP. The OP's clandestine entry can only be brought into question under the good character assessment, however the OP has worked out September 2007 as the r...
Hi Mizer, You should be okay to apply for BC in September, as you've worked out. Your economic activity i.e work after you became a family member in sept 2007 till divorce is irrelevant, as your rights came from your EEA sponsor exercising treaty rights not your activity. Being Employed isn't a requ...
I'm not sure that Child D has permanent residence. It's unclear from what we've been told. If the father was still working in the UK on D's 5th birthday, then D has acquired PR. Otherwise, the best hope is that: (1) The father left the UK as soon as he stopped working; and (2) D started school (and...
Hi Since the children have already acquired PR in their own right you can apply for BC without any implications for them. I'd recommend you (Non EEA)apply for BC if you meet the criteria, I don't trust this strong and stable government to treat eu citizens fairly as you can see from their offer. Ont...
if I am to apply for DCPR for my children, who would be the main applicant? Obie ? Wise ? Carling40 ? Hi That's a good question, it would have been good to have had child A, B and C included in your application for PR as they would also have been issued DCPR as well. Their rights derive from the EE...
Hi I think the new thread may be best placed in the British Citizenship section as thats the next phase, and the question is about citizenship. Do the kids have evidence of PR also? You'd need to put information like that in the question you post as they'd want to know to advise you correctly. Citiz...
SO FINALLY!!! Today 06/07/2016 I received my PR BRP. Expiring in 2027 :) Thankful for the support from here.. Carling40, you have been amazing with your advice. Wise, You were great with your guidance... Obie, amazing as always with your input. And thanks to everyone who contributed to this topic. ...
