It is clear breach of your free movement right 8 Article 5 of Directive 2004/38, ‘Right of entry’, states: ‘1. Without prejudice to the provisions on travel documents applicable to national border controls, Member States shall grant Union citizens leave to enter their territory with a valid id...

For tax credit purposes,your spouse immigration control status is disregarded.The status can only be regarded if both of you are under immigration control and will not be allow CT/WTC under the recourse to public rules.

Home office does tell the applicant not to make any travel arrangements until you get your passport back so Home office will not be responsible for your loss of money. Regarding the wrong passport, I think you need to send it back to home office with a covering letter and ask for your passport. I w...

He was more pissed in his country by giving a bribe of £20 or locked up.

This is an interesting one.It will unwise to go back to Morocco for an application which will not be accepted by the irish Embassy under the EU rules. Most importantly if husband has only breached the immigration rules without having any other criminal records,your best routes are- Appeal the refusa...

mickyd, I appreciate your efforts to help your carer.But its very important to take the right route/advice. 1.She have to inform the Home office of her situation(s),it will be responsible to that.That she want to remain in the UK based on the fact(a) the marriage subsist here in the Uk for over 3 ye...

I am sure there will be some help for her based on the extract below from the EEA immigration regulation 2006.She should contact a solicitor or the CAB for help.

You should be able to prove your residency in the UK for a possible PR application.

Since you have never applied for any residency card and your marriage certificate is gone with her.How can you proof your marriage and also proof your residency in the UK.
Maybe any other traceable history(work,school,bills )etc.

It will be unwise to hide your spouse criminal history.It depends on the level of offence it will live with him/her for a while.
Luckily you are allowed EEAFP to come into the UK,but the restriction will certainly be extended to you.

I totally disagree with the NL-SOLVIT. The interpretation that the gratis visa is only applicable if you/wife are permanently based within the EU is fake and misleading. ''The right of a third country national married to an EU citizen to accompany or join the EU citizen in the host member state deri...

It is a big blow.This decision bring to light the recognition and respect for family(ies) (reunification) by the community law.

Archigabe, What a good way to celebrate the Christmas holidays. Congratulations to you and your family for the efforts. I am personally happy that you did not fall to cheap ideas of the DoJ. The last bit is the damages,that will be a piece of cake to go through. I am sorry the DoJ has taken this rou...

We were told by our solicitors that we would be crazy not to accept the terms offered by the Department of Justice as we are getting everything we want/entitled to, including full costs,and our claim for damages can still go ahead in open court...I am in a bit of a dilemma as we want our case to se...

The Irish may treat your case under the national immigration rule.It might be difficult going through Surinder Singh Route since the EU national is only a minor.

Don't drag me into time wasting debate on this and concentrate your efforts on the topic/thread. I am not draging you into anything,you kicked off first! Just stop posting nonsense,which this quote truly is! Hahahaha Ireland will be in the same shoulder with any of the poorest countries of the worl...

Good luck to you Archie. Brownbono wrote : The EU will soon reduce funding to Ireland and the strength of the country will be tested.

Yes, I think it's ridiculous that they think they can make demands on us to sign 'confidentiality' and 'no fault' agreements when they are clearly in a weak position...Do they assume all Non E.U spouses are illiterate peasants to be scared by their attitude or are they just real idiots? In fact, it...

It will be a shameful thing to do after all the agony they made innocent to go through. [quote="archigabe"] This will probably only impact E.U1 applications from people whose status was legal in Ireland when the application was made. quote] The EU Directive assume every EU citizen family is legal wi...

Its a good idea to apply for the HSMP,but the reasoning behind it is not sincere. You have been in the UK for 2 years and had your BSc and Msc here ???? If your HSMP is successful and decide to bring your family into the UK in a ratio of 1:4,the ECO will reject your application point blank. I advise...

Its sad that you can come on here to tell how much you have abused the system.The government are sometimes not stupid to adopt biometric ID/finger prints to identify people,thank goodness the USA have succeeded in getting it right on that. I am not sure you need a solicitor,your conscience is your b...

The EEA family permit is not issued within the UK.You have to apply for the EEA family residence permit(ie 5 years residence permit) using the EEA2 form which is downloadable at the BIA website.

There is no need going back to home country.Those that married through the Church of England are not required to produce immigration history(EC route).
A close person just had the approval decision using Directive 2004/38/EC article 5(4) route.

The Home Office may refuse the application on grounds of public policy,If the person in question accept using another person's passport into the UK.The question is ''Why did he not apply for the EEA permit after the marriage''
