PLEASE HELP
Why you do not call them?

P.S. Have information from another forum, the waiting time for EEA 4 is getting better, 3-4 months, even one lady received EEA4 in 2.5 months!

Keep us updated.

Re: EEA3 and EEA4 - Bank statements

As part of the EEA3 and 4 applications, they ask people to sent bank statements in order to prove you have resided in the country. My problem is that I have not asked my bank to send me monthly paper copies, but I can see all of them online. Does anyone know if HO accepts if I just print out statem...

Re: EEA4 permanet Residence -when to apply -5yr after marria

Are you sure 28 days rule can be applied to applications under EU legislations? I know, that is a rule from UK law, and it is not clear whether it is applicable to European applications. I would think it is worth a try though. Nowadays they check EU applications for completeness on receipt, don't k...

Re: EEA3/EEA4 Additional documents?

What is going to happen in case if they request and we do not have such insurance? I'm honestly not sure. Perhaps they will say that you weren't lawfully resident for that period, so your five years of lawful residence starts only from when your wife resumed employment / self-employed (and technica...
