When do you need your parents in UK?

You do realise that it can be either impossible or risky for them to travel?

I wouldn’t do that. Your husband has EUSS card, right? Applying under the circumstances makes no sense. We are stuck on the island for some months, so Europe is out of question till July? September? Secondly, look what HO is saying. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/eu-settlement-scheme-app...

Hi guys, I need your help. I received this email from APAD - HOme Office. Can someone explain this to me? What should I do? I got really confused. Good morning Thank you for your application to replace your BRC with a EU Settlement Scheme BRC (BRCE). On receipt of your application we contacted you ...

Many thanks for responses so far - seems like we are going to have a wait and see what happens over the coming weeks. Regarding the accomodation requirement, this was done using my mother’s address, however, as she is in her 70’s it is far from ideal for us to both move in there at the current time...

Hello, my US-based wife has been granted a spouse visa to join me in the UK. She needs to enter the country within 30 days, so by 24th April 2020. She has already had one flight cancelled as a result of the pandemic. I am also concerned that if she does make it over, we will struggle to find somewh...

Hi All, Just an update We rescheduled one for tomorrow at 9am in Edinburgh which also got cancelled by UKVCAS just now via email. Rebooked for one on Friday in Glasgow. It's ridiculous with the lack of communication, emails just says to reschedule a appointment! Smn Why not be a bit proactive and r...

I don’t think someone can answer this question as I’m sure HO doesn’t have the answer yet. Let’s just hope they will come up with some reasonable solution

iwolga I DID not create any unnecessary work for the home office I am a non EU national I had a previous EEA biometric card under EU law before all this eu settlement scheme came about. So I applied for settled status using my EEA biometric card Then I realised I can change my EEA2 residence card i...

March 6th...because I use my old biometric card to apply for settled status. I sent my new biometric card to home office to be updated online using royal mail special delivery Today I receive my biometric card from home office they sent it using royal mail 2nd class signed for..My biometric card ca...

Hi everyone, First-time poster, long-time lurker here :) I am a Canadian citizen, and am planning on applying for the EEA Family Permit through my French partner. We have been in a relationship for 5 years, and living together for 2 years. I have started filling out the application for the Family P...

There doesn't seem to be any problem. The curtailment letter itself is not a bad thing. You've applied for your EEA status before the date stated in that letter, so you never overstayed. Assuming the letter wasn't saying something like "you misused the visa" or "you are not genuine student" or somet...

When I was applying for EEA FP, no one asked me for the original of my sponsor passport. I’m even not sure how this would be technically possible as I was outside of UK (maybe if he sent it directly to HO in the UK then?) Proofs of relationship (marriage certificate, photos, WhatsApp etc), as well a...

Without an official statement, you have to leave the country before the expiration of your leave. You cannot just assume by yourself that the current situation will justify an overstay. Agreed however, are there flights available? As mentioned, an official statement is most definately required. I h...

A friend of mine got UK visa 2 days ago. I got Schengen visa approved 2 weeks ago. I however just cancelled my trips to Germany and France for April and May. As the situation develops now, I would be asking myself: do my parents NEED to travel in May? If this is just a family visit, I (and I stress ...

In general I’m good till 2025. But yes, if I want to travel after June 2021 (or change jobs) I need to apply for new card.

IHS shouldn't be increased because new EU nationals along with their family members from next year will hopefully start paying it as well. After EU migration will become difficult to blame, the government will need to find some other "enemy of the state". I assume coronavirus is currently an ideal ...

Non-EU with EEA RC received in the beginning of February. Sponsor (husband) has pre-settled status: 15/02/20 - applied for EU Settlement Scheme (id-ed by BRC, gave husbands’ ref number, attached 2 bills and wedding certificate) 15/02/20 - COA 11/03/20 - pre-settled status granted I guess I have a v...

From my experience, if you give valid and sane explanations at border, no consequences at all. They will ask you why you are not traveling to Belgium and you shall explain re postponing of conference. Better don’t say it was cancelled. If asked just confirm that you still have intentions to travel t...

I would take more stepped approach: applying for 10 years visa after a one visa of 6 months is a bit too extreme. Try getting 1 or 2 years visa, then 5 years. For me expiration date of the passport wasn’t an issue. My passport expires in March 2023, I’ve got visa till September 2023. I don’t know th...

I think the reason why I was drawn to EEA2 residence card was for him to hAve no trouble when travelling with me in shengen zone I would name traveling with EEA card only a potential trouble. As discussed multiple times on this forum, a lot of airlines and even immigration officers have no clue tha...

Yes, I was referring to Schengen visa, of course. The process is pretty much the same for any country within Schengen zone: book an appointment through visa application centre, fill in the application form, prepare supporting papers, attend the appointment, give fingerprints of it wasn’t done within...

Slightly off topic, did you consider getting visa instead? As your husband he can apply with less requirements (no itinerary and financial info), this application is free of charge and is normally expedited compared to standard visit visa. Waiting time for EEA RC makes it completely senseless to app...
