What would be the best way of showing he is exercising treaty rights? Is it not necessary to send evidence of our finances? That very much depends in what category you are applying. I am not too familiar with self-employnet but bank statements are indeed one possibility but an accountant letter sho...

If your wife cannot derive a right from free movement (essentially having been resident in another member state and exercised treaty rights there or been a cross border worker or provided services to another member state) she obviously cannot rely on the Directive and you are subject to national law...

If the EEA national has been in the UK already for a period longer than three months then he/she is required to show evidence of exercising treaty rights. Nevertheless, a bank statement is needed in only some specific cases. If that is not your situation (you don't quite explain) then there is simpl...

You best bet is to discuss this on this Austrian forum where you can get input from immigration expers. Don't worry about language. You can ask in English.

Book the appointment and discuss this face-to-face. This direct.gov web page suggests that other information may suffice.

You can also ask UKBA to return your passport.

Re: Spouse Visa - Advice and some questions about my case

Finally, this is what worries me most: my wife spent a month and a half in the UK, she had to leave because after visiting my family in Spain, on our return to the UK an Immigration Officer wasn't convinced of what she told him, almost refused her to enter the UK. He finally let her in but shortene...

You are obviously not applying for a "Spouse Visa" but rather for an EEA family permit (that distinction is very important). As you are in the UK already, presumably longer than three months, you will have to show that you are exercising your treaty rights. Self-employment is just as fine as being a...

Congratulations! But you have no prove for the latter statement. It's really just a wild guess.

Also look here . The very idea of free movement is that you can move to another member state to look for work with little bureaucratic hurdles. Only after three months are you required to 'exercise treaty rights', i.e. to be able to support yourself without becoming an 'unreasonable' burden to the h...

For a successful application you will need to be a qualified person. A job seeker is a qualified person provided he/she is actively looking for work and can also show that. This status can be kept for six months and only longer if the applicant can show that he/she has a genuine chance of being empl...

If the passport is not available the RC will be issued on a separate A4 paper but the UKBA may ask to have the passport send back to them.

There is no transfer as such. You would have to make a fresh application.

Re: Non-EEA spouse of EU on 5-yr WP - can I apply through EE

Your wife's son is a direct family member. Your niece could qualify as an extended family member if she dependant on you or was a family member of the EEA national in the country you lived before.

Unreasonable burden to the state. As with so many things in the EEA regulations there are no fixed ruled what that means but would have to be assessed on an individual basis. Eventually, it is probably for the courts to decide.

Your child can stay with you, of course. As it is an Italian citizen there are no further formalities required. You can apply for registration certificates for both of you but that's optional and, frankly, pretty useless in your situation IMHO.
