I am lost again :-) I did not ask about non-visa nationals, but visa nationals residing in EU (out of UK) and having a non-UK family permit. Can these people enter UK without applying for an Entry Clearance? Enter? Yes, if they can get to the border (or the Eurostar train station/ferry port). Howev...

.... Non-visa nationals do not require a visa, by definition. 2006 regs do not appear to transpose the directive in the spirit it was intended. Anyway, not matter as if they present themselves at a border, they would be admitted. Visa nationals need to have entry clearance to board a flight. I am l...

Can the Non-EU person travel to UK without applying for any UK paper? If yes, should the Non-EU person be accompanied by the EU-national? ... but nothing has changed yet. However, if the non-EEA person is not a (UK) visa national, then an Entry Clearance is not really required... May thanks for the...

Dear All, I have been part of all this some time ago, but still interested. Just a simple question, let's say now and after this change a Non-EU dependent of an EEA national is in possession of a valid Family Permit from Spain (or any Non-UK but EU country), then, Can the Non-EU person travel to UK ...

As far as I remember, I had the same experience when applied for a business visa and also for a tourist visa a couple of years ago.

I would suggest that you write and ask for an explanation. Or you did it already?

Thanks for the congrats. I hope yours will resolve soon too. The status changed yesterday (around noon) and today (10 am) I received the documents back.

I received my FP today. It tool like 3 weeks. I was very worried about it though. You can find how I applied if you look here . I am really thankful to people that gave me advice in here and read my posts. I learned a lot about immigration stuff by simply asking my questions here and I was somehow i...

Being a visa national in this case or not is independent from number and type of visas you already hold for other countries. It is solely defined by your country of origin. For info about who needs a visa and who not look a...

Thanks a lot Jambo. This is very helpful.

Another swift reply from the Madrid Visa Section!.... Don't worry it will be all fine, think positive if you think of it. All in all this is nice that they reply.
