EEA national don't need to apply for Registeration Certificate, it is optional. The only thing with a Registeration Certificate, is that it saves you from having to provide other documentary evidence, to establish you are Exercising Treaty Rights in the UK.

I wasn't questioning whether or not you are British born and bred or anything. I was merely trying to establish whether or not you will be in the UK on the day your wife arrives. If you will be, then that is perfect. If you will not be , for any reason, she might encounter some difficulties. Sorry f...

Provided the father is British Citizen in any other category other than by descent, the child will qualify for citizenship immediately.

If the father was not born in the UK but naturalised as British, the child will still qualify.

I don't think that is right. You cannot vary an application whiles section 3D leave is in force, as your rights would have been curtailed or revoked by then. If you haven't got any substantive leave, you will not succeed, until the outcome of the appeal. If Section 3C was in force VOLO (Variation of...

The immigration rule281 b(1), doesn't specify how long they allowed to be apart. It only states they have to have been married for a period of 4 years. People are not usually required to provide evidence showing 4 years of living together. The fact that you are married for that period, is in itself ...

Are you in UK at present, is you partner exercising treaty rights in the UK, and have you got evidence of the fact that you have been in a relationship for more than 2 years if you are married.

If you do, there is no need applying from Sweden. Apply from the UK on EEA2

Is this enormous disparity due to, people in Jamaica simply not meeting the requirements, or is it the fact that the country they are applying from, puts them in a disadvantage.

You are perfectly correct, she has to show 2 years of complete resident in the UK. However she is issued with a 27 months visa, to make provision for the time between the issuing of the visa and her arrival in the UK, and to ensure she doesn't become and overstayer before her 2 years period.

This is a delicate situation. Do you and your wife have any children yet? If you do, it will be difficult to get her away if she enters the UK.
