I always went to non-EU line with my non-EEA spouse, even though I held EU/British passport, our child BC too. However, I found that the non-EU line is faster than EU queues in certain airports (Luton, Liverpool) that receive mainly flights within EU. Nobody ever minded me or my child with a EU/Brit...

They are nowhere said to be compulsory. Gov.uk guidance everywhere says "you can use e-passport-Gates" to save time, avoid queues etc.

I wonder the treatment and fate of pending TL applications past the Brexit day in case of no deal. I am wondering the same... I tend to believe that any application placed before October 31st will still follow the TL judgement even if it's decided after October 31st. What you said makes sense and I...

Thanks for this detailed information. Another application? I think I will die! Why do they have to make everything THAT DIFFICULT? The purportedly simple 30 minutes application with 1-4 days decision time to protect EU residents and their family rights in shambles by the institutionally dearly belo...

In my case HO said they cannot give a time like it can take up to 6 months. They just keep saying, Lounes case/ paper applications take significantly longer than online application. So far they’ve returned my passport quickly and I sent my biometrics with no hassle and no cost. So far so good. I’ll...

We have been advised over the phone by the EU Resolution Centre that the "service standard" for the paper applications is 6 months. However, I doubt EU Settlement Scheme applications would on average take that long. I guess it would vary a lot on each individual circumstances, whether they need to ...

Ariskar paper application takes about 3 weeks in total 3 weeks to get CoA or Residence Card? HO told me Lounes Case applications takr significantly longer than online PSS/Surinder Singh route applications. Are you sure it’s that quick?

Page 38 of the guidance notes highlights the requirements for family members of EU/EEA citizens holding ILR/ILE:

Ariskar paper application takes about 3 weeks in total We just received the paper application form and it is irrelevant to our (Toufik Lounes) case under EU11 condition (2). In questions in section (3) of the form about application type, none of the categories of application type is relevant for a ...

I would also add that currently there is no statutory basis for the EU Settlement Scheme as it is would become law through ratification and ascent of the Withdrawal Agreement Bill. Therefore, the exception of Equality Act 2010 for Immigration purposes on the basis of Schedule 3, Part 4, Paragraph 17...

My wife has applied for settled status online using ILR BRP (Settlement Refugee), my EU national ID, my BC naturalization certificate (instead of passport to indicate naturalization date). (Eligibility under regulation EU11(2).) Applied: 30 June 2019 The automated system indicated she would be consi...

5. Having 2 ILR/settled statuses provides additional immigration status legal protection of right to remain. I don't think you can have two ILR at the same time. I might be mistaken, but I'm under the impression that you can only have one status under UK law. You can have concurrent statuses if one...

7. It may enable reverse Surinder Singh like possibilities of migrating in other EEA states for the non-EU family member in the future subject to Brexit arrangements by EU/EEA states for family members of British citizens.

Therefore, if the non-EEA family member has indefinite leave to remain If this is the case what is the point of applying for Settled status? Non-exhaustive and specific to our case. I agree for 99% of people these are of low importance. 1. It's free 2. My spouse has ILR as refugee, can be revoked i...

Ok looks like there was some confusion - I wasn't posing a question in my post, but answering it. Thanks for the link - it gives an error message. Same issue on your side I'm sure?

Case worker guidance link (EU Settlement) for various cases:
