Dear all

Regarding EU family member does not need to obtain a 'certain type of visa' in order to apply for residence card after landing. Could someone please point me the exact wording in law?

Thanks.

Thanks, but this is the only thread I have opened for this topic.

Hi Gurus, Wish someone could shed light on my questions. I am a British passport holder and now interviewing for a job in Germany. My current plan is to bring my non-EEA parents with me, exercise my treaty rights there for at least 6 months and come back together next year using Surinder Singh rulin...

Hi all, Got an interview coming up next week with an International company. They did ask whether I am elligible to work in EU (Netherlands). I told them I think so, and that I was gonna check. I have had my PR for just under a year now. Do I require a work permit in EU? Will my PR be sufficient? If...

I am sorry but these two statements seem to conflict with each other. Will HO consider dependent parents eligible for Surinder Singh if they live with the EEA national in Ireland and are indeed dependent on them during that time(i.e. as direct EEA family member)? My post wasn't accurate. It should ...

You will find that the HO would only consider spouses to be eligible for Surinder Singh. You will also find that residing with you in Ireland was required in order to qualify for Surinder Singh. I am sorry but these two statements seem to conflict with each other. Will HO consider dependent parents...

Just notice there is small font wording in the document right below the EEA section. Residence Documents issued under the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations are not mandatory. These fees will be introduced later in 2013 when the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2006 hav...

Thanks, rehan01 and lkonda. Glad to know there is no age limit. My husband has ILR and I am a British citizen, so should be qualified as 'settled' according to the rule. If anyone knows more about hiring a relative for extension or in case of that, any extra proof is preferable to assure UKBA the po...

I'm currently holding an actively trading IT company and it is growing well. I am considering if my parents can invest in my company and thus come to UK via Tier 1(Entrepreneur) visa. Besides the English criteria and the proof of savings, is there any age limit on applicants at all? In this particul...

Please allow me to ask a related question. In such a case, does it mean the partner would have to show proof of Comprehensive Medical Insurance?

India comes under the third countries whose national requires Visa under national law in the case of the United Kingdom and Ireland. Does it mean my parents do need a entry visa prior to reaching the port ? I am struggling to decide on whether to - - go via NI into Ireland - or take a flight and re...

Is your parent dependent on you? This is important to your Irish and subsequent British application. Thanks EUsmileWEallsmile. Yes, I've been sending back money periodically since 2009 and her utility bills are still on my name. Also I'm the only child of hers. So I think I should have enough proof...

No one has any idea? Or I haven't made my question clear enough?
Really need your help guys

Hi Gurus, I've been investigating on Singh ruling for quite a while as I am thinking to go through that route to bring my mother along to UK with me. I am now curious and can't help thinking about the following question, If I want to go to Ireland with my mom(given I have enough proof of dependency)...

Does anyone know? There has to be an category for non-eu parents or other family members I think?

Just a quick question, which category of visa application should be chosen for Non-EEA dependent parents travelling together with EEA national into Ireland? On the website, there seems to be * Join Parent (EEA National) * Join Partner (EEA National) * Join Spouse (EEA National) But which category do...

ruthie, I will suggest as follows: 1. You need to come to Ireland first and take up the role. There are a couple of issues which you need to tidy up before you begin the process and I will assume it will be the same everywhere (but the Irish is notably "challenging" :) ) 1. I dont see how realistic...

You can check if they can go under the Irish Short-stay Visa Waiver Programme http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/INIS/VWP%20Info%20NoteRev4-20111024.pdf/Files/VWP%20Info%20NoteRev4-20111024.pdf My wife got multi D visa for 4 months but even then her passport was stamped only for 30 days at the Dublin airpor...

I am currently living in Uk(citizen) and about to accept a job offer from Ireland soon. I want to bring my parents along with me, who is currently living with me in UK on visit visa. They are financially dependent on me (i've been sending back money, paying for their bill etc.), also living with me ...

The UK very clearly sees Singh applying only to direct family members. Hi Directive/2004/38/EC, interested to know what makes you think that and could you please provide the official links if there is any? From this link, if I understand correctly, it seems that the ruling should apply to all 'fami...

The household has to be headed by the Union Citizen. He or she is expected to have primary right or ownership of the house or property .Essentially the family members are living under his or her roof. That is the way the law is interpreted in the UK at present. Thanks Obie and John. This sounds new...

Yes the directive provides that children or parents who fail to show dependency may qualify under Article 3(2) of the directive, but they are failing to understand without the parents and the EEA national providing proof that prior to the EEA national entering the UK, the parents and the EEA nation...

I believe you friend's mother should appeal this decision. The refusal is clearly unjustified. There is no requirement for one to Hold a family permit before a residence card should be issued. It will suffice if the mother show dependency in the UK. The retention of the passport seems illegal aswel...
