Thanks Amber_,
would I need to send my wife's P60 or pay slips for 2 years to prove that she is exercising treaty rights?

Correct.

E-mailed the UKBA on Saturday asking for an update on my application, just received a call saying that it was posted out on Sep 21 so should arrive any day now!

Flashware, where did you sent an email to?

Thanks... Yes, I'm sure I can get a letter confirming the travel and business reasons.

I will try and hope HO considers it. Think that's all I could do

Thanks

Hi guys, I wanted to ask if I can ask UKBA for priority treatment of my application as I have to travel for work. I'm a visa national and need to travel to US for an on going project in September. My employer has made it clear that its very important for me to sort my documentation and make this tra...

I have called them yesterday and they said that it takes 3 months for COA not 4-6 weeks. Anyone knows email id for enquiring about application and COA ?? By law they should send COA immediately after the receipt of the application and 3 months is not immediate. Email them quoting 17(3) of http://ww...

Hello Everybody finally I received my RC my time line was EEA1 & EEA2 sent: 09-02-12 HO Received: 10-02-12 COA received: 28-03-12 Passport requested on april and received within 5 days RC and EEA1 received 20-07-12 dated 11-07-12 Best regards. I applied EEA1 and EEA2 on 29th June and then requested...

It is totally based on lawful residence not the type of visa. Only deportation during 10 years and 6+ months absence from uk in one year affect ilr clock. The problem with that is because EU Immigration rules the passport doesn't have any entry stamps so its impossible for HO to tell if the applica...

Thanks Jambo..

Its sounds as a discretion of the case worker and I guess the only way to find out is to pay the fee and apply for ILR

Hi guys, I have a question scenario is 4yr x Student 2yr x PSW 2yr x Tier 1 (General) 2yr x EEA2 total 10 years. Can i apply for ILR 10 years under UK rules or wait another 3 years to get a PR under EEA rules. I have been reading this on UKBA site which is quite confusing http://www.ukba.homeoffice....

sent EEA1 & EEA2 on 29June. Requested my wife's passport back on 9 July due to urgent work travel.

Called them today and they said request is received and being processed.

you would think so yes but apperantly according to an immigration lawyer with 10 years exp in era applications , the home office are rejecting most applications made by couples of Asian/African and eastern European decent we unfortunately fall in this category so we got rejected she says although u...

The immigration advisor asked us to call back tomorrow with our refusal letter She also informed us that we should appeal if it the application was refused due to the home office believing our relationship was a sham she said it would really help my case if we can get her sister to come from irelan...

Under eu law it does not matter when after wedding you apply eea2 permit as you can do it any time even your visa expired as long as your eea spouse is excercising eu treaty rights. But now you talking about self-emplyoment. Before you said that your eea national wife is doing full time employment....

I doubt they can just refuse an application when its done 2 weeks after getting married. If UKBA thinks its a marriage of convenience then they have to provide concrete evidence and timing is just not it.

I think they have refused it on some other silly ground (as they do).

congrats! I'm about to submit my EEA2 (married) application. What documents did you send with the EEA2 application?

thanks

Thanks jambo.. some great suggestion on that link

cheers

Thanks a lot for your reply. This is such a relief. Yes, I know I would get PR sooner if I stay under Tier 1 but to be honest not too fussed about getting a PR. We travel a lot so RC will allow me to travel with my wife freely (without applying for a visa every time) I think I just need to make sure...
