carry your old passport and your marriage cert

When I applied for my EEA4, I had included all the P60s and the recent pay slips (my husband changed his job 6 months before I applied for my EEA4), and a confirmation letter of employment from current employer or HR. We did not have any letters from HMRC. Follow the instructions and checklist, I su...

Thanks for the correction EEA4 is for non-EEA nationals whom are married to EEA nationals, to appy for the confirmation of permanent residence. =================================== 3 years to get your driving license is a very poor reason to convince UKBA of the whereabout of your activities in the U...

As far as I know, you are allowed to travel with it.
The only issue to to keep it safe and remember to carry it whenever you need to travel.

EEA4 is only intended for married couples
Unless you were married for at least 3 years and you could try to retain your right of residence

Since your father is an European, why don't you apply as a dependent of your father instead of relying on your ex-husband?

you could check UKBA website, they pretty much explain everything on their website

Your EEA wife can apply EEA3 to certify her PR. It is not compulsory for her as she has the right to reside in the UK without such.

I hope they will send the documents back soon.
I have enclosed a envelope for the return of passports and another for supporting documents.

Looking at the processing time thread, I was hoping it would take less than 3 months...

I have received my COA on 30th April. It was issued on 19th April. (it took them 2 weeks to issue COA with a case ID -> positive sign?) There is a case ID and the HO reference is now updated to my husband's HO reference number. Is this looking good? I hope to get all my documents back before beginni...

Because of the availability of documents, I only sent my application 2 days before my current EEA2 stamp expires, which means HO received it 1 day before expiry of my EEA2 stamp. And, my husband's passport is expiring in 2 months from the date of my application. And, I was living at a 2nd address be...
