i would agree that processing of EU3 applications and retentions would take more time than a simple EU1 application. Also the holiday period adds up to it.
If the EU citizen is in employment, the following documents should be provided: Current letter from employer setting out terms and conditions of employment and full contact details for employer AND/OR signed contract of employment Two recent payslips Most recent P60 or Tax Credit Certificate If ren...
I don't think it is done on purpose. It's most likely due to huge amounts of EUTR applications. I think thousands of applicants were granted under metock in 2008 with their permissions backdated to 2007. now they are all applying after 5 years, thus creating the backlog. also just see this board and...
if you request your passports, they can return ONLY your passports ahead of processing. that does not mean that they will issue the letter for stamp 4 or push you ahead other applications for initial processing. but since you are waiting for for a a long time, i am guessing that your letter and pass...
As it is at the discresion of the particular minister, noone knows who will be the minister at the time of your husband's decision for citizenship and what criteria and views on social welfare he/she will have at the time.
Don't worry, the letter is most likely in the post. on the other thread a person who was due to hear on the 12th, i think, received the letter 3 days later.
everyone gets 2 PRTB letters, a letter per person. Don't worry about that.
general immigration only deals with de facto relationships with irish nationals. I am guessing you are EU citizen but not irish, therefore, they refered you to EUTR
when you submit an EU1 application form, you get temporary stamp 4 for 6 months. if the application os granted, then you get 5 years on Stamp 4EUFAM. If you have to change passport within those 5 years, then you go again with your spouse and the letter and the new passport, and get the remainder of ...
the visa will be issued with a certain validity dates. You have to enter during the dates that it is valid, even if it is the last day before its expiry. Because the visa is only for the entry and not in itself a permission to stay in the country. Permission to stay in the country will be given at t...

there is no point going to immigration without a decision letter. They will tell you, that you have to wait.
By the way, what nationality is your partner?
Additional documents are there to show that your marriage is a real one. You have a child, so send a birth certificate. Include some family pictures, wedding pictures. Show that you have been living together for several years.
if she doesn't have any valid permission at the moment, she will not get stamp 4 as a spouse of irish national from her local immigration officer. instead she will have to apply in writing to spouse of irish national section, where processing can take up to 12 months for more info http://www.inis.go...
i think you get those rights in full after 6 months when the spouse of EU citizen is granted Residence card Stamp 4EUFAM. If a British national wants to bring his spouse to the UK to reside in a long term, the EU citizen will have to show the UK that he has been exercising his EU Treaty Rights in ir...
Well if you are self sufficient, that means you are supporting yourself without resources from the state, i.e. no social welfare payments. Plus you have to have medical insurance for the whole family, i.e Eu citizen, applicant and any children
A friend of mine got approved recently and attended december ceremony as a spouse of irish citizen. she applied in 2010.
I believe, that the minister is trying to clear the older applications now, the ones that were kind of forgotten when all new applicants got their decisions in 6 months time.
i would suggest you to submit a letter and a contract of employment from your current job. As you are currently on stamp 4 you are free to change employment. As long as you are working, you are ok.
just my thoughts, that if the EU citizen is already in the country settled in and working or exercising his/her Eu treaty rights, it could be looked more favourably if the non EU spouse is coming to join. while when they are coming together, chances are the EU citizen won't be able to get employment...
Even in order to apply for retention you will have to show evidence or residence and exercise of EUTR in respect of your wife. So if she is not giving you the documents now, how are you going to get them later?
