Ok. Got mine today and I am also rejected based on not having lived in a member state before. This brings to light that you can't just live in a member state for 2 months without the proper paperwork in place. It doesnt' count as we were in England for 2 months prior to coming to Ireland and submit...

Thank you for the info. I think my husband is just very stressed out with everything. We might work it out eventually. To make matters worse I got my rejection letter today :( Now it's to appeal and all that. I don't know why I am even bothering with this.

Non EU1 immigration

Wonder if anybody knows anything about this... immigration to Ireland by other means. Meaning not the EU1 thing. With all the stress about money and immigration my husband and I have been drifting apart and he has now asked for a divorce. I am very much stuck here with nobody to turn to so will have...

Our kids and relatives all live in the UK and Finland and we would like to be closer to them. I have read all posts here and see the problem with EU-1 etc. I am a businessman and would like...

Thanks for that Birdy. I wouldnt' suggest just arriving in the UK without the EEA family permit or D-Spouse visa. Tourist visa's cannot be converted and you cannot obtain a D-Spouse or EEA from within the UK. I hope you're right about being here legally as that would help me not to go back to apply ...

I know the feeling. If you need to store stuff shout. We can either keep it until you can come back to get it or will bring it when we go to the UK.

Can I apply via the british embassy in Dublin or do we have to go back to south africa? If mine doesnt' work out I am going to apply from Dublin. It depends what they deem legal residence as being ok. Technically we are legally resident here now as we are busy being processed so 'technically' we sh...

My husband got his permit about two weeks ago. It took about a month. It would have taken a couple of weeks but the employer didn't fill one of the questions out correctly. It was very minor correction though. My husband now has is PPS and is getting paid. It's definitely a relief for us. Unfortuna...

Sorry to hear that Birdy. No, it doesn't say when you have to leave. We put in an appeal straight away (more then 6 weeks now) but haven't heard back on it at all. As long as the appeal is dealt with you are safe. This whole thing is a big mess. My wife flew back to her home country and applied for...
