to be honest, you are actually better off divorcing. For you to retain your rights you would need to show that: 1) married for 3 years; 2) minimum 1 year in UK (show P60s from the years you lived together in the UK); 3) During the process of divorce from start to finish your husband was exercising t...
Yep, you would have to be exercising treaty rights while away. If here were working and away let's say 6 weeks per year, he'd be on holiday so considered a worker- thus exercising treaty rights. If he was away as a student or even unemployed, should show he was self-sufficient in the Uk, this is the...
EEA2 form would be used if your mum is already in the UK to apply for a Residence Card. If applying from outside, you would need to use VAF5 something form to apply for an EEA Family Permit (valid for 6 months to enter the UK). U are not married to your polish partner, that makes it harder to get yo...
You said it yourself, even 43EUR is ILLEGAL!!! Ukba is not violating the law but uses the maximum time permitted to process the applications (6 months as per Directive 2004/38). Further, now the processing times have improved two-fold, as per people posting on this website. I find it convenient for ...
It is clear people are confused about EU and national routes. You should apply for Naturalisation as a fam member of EU citizen 6 years from becoming a family member, Res Card is just confirmation. However, the reason why HO ask for the same docs again is to actually check WHEN your 6th year BEGUN a...
The Certificate of Approval Scheme will soon be scrapped, and there are NO FEES at all to apply, it has been suspended. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/while-in-uk/marriageandcivilpartnership/documents/ Thus, if your relationship is genuine you will most likely get it, UKBA will not be infringing ...
Ok, I think you are much safer applying for PR first! I would be extremely surprised if you don't succeed! No need for any solicitors, just fill out an EEA4 and attach the documents covering the dates up to December 2005 to be on a safe side. As regards your hubby's BC application, coming to think o...
no problem at all as EEA3 is only a confirmation of what you automatically acquired. And as you said, you wouldn't have got BC. I would go even one better by saying that you COULD if you had appropriate help from a qualified solicitor, apply for your hubby's Naturalisation!!! As your hubby already h...
It's a bit confusing, can you set out exactly with the dates 1) when you first moved to the UK; 2) when you started exercising treaty rights, apart from the first three months' stay initially; 3) WHERE did you get married (here or abroad in Lithuania) 4) when your husband moved to the UK 5) The WAY ...
You see Greenie, i think that if the person applies as if never acquired bc, there is noth wrong with it, no fraud involved, as far as the op is concerned, they are still a lithuanian citizen until renounced cit etc. Now, why would ukba ever check whether op acquired bc?if it's a straightforward eea...
i may have a pop at this one 1. you are wrong to start counting 5 years from when they issued him with the RC, your hubby's five years started to tick towards pr from the date you married- dec2005-dec2010; 2. thus, let's assume that you would not have acquired bc in nov 2010, your hubby was entitled...
That's not what the woman said, she said it IS valid like now over the validity of pr. Also, as far as i'm concerned only those valid for 5 years can be ext to maximum of 10

I just think they have idiots sit at the EU queue as it's easier where you only deal with a set of IDs and Passports (so just checking if the doc itself is fake or not) and don't need to know the subtleties dealing with NON-EU arrivals with all kind of different visas or no visa nationals etc...

As much as many find this immoral, i disagree. This premium service keeps at least 2 parties happy:
1) those with dosh happy to pay and get the papers processed quicker &
2) the govt cashing in on it, dont see y not for god's sake!
Provided it doesnt affect free applications' processing times
My wife applied for eea3 on 8 nov and it was received on the 9th. Still, no coa or pr yet Eea nationals don't get Coa as they don't need it to work AND most importantly their applications must be processed within reasonable time and not 6 months as for non-eeas. So, u van start harrassing the ukba ...
Hey, 1) It seems the new Sep 2010 AN form made an attempt to include info about EEA nationals and their family members but slightly misinterpreted the regulations. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/nationality/guide_an.pdf The guidance notes make things slightly easier, ...
You can refer to the ex wife as the EEA National (former spouse), the rest seems ok. Dear Sir/Madam I am writing to update you of my status as required in the letter attached to The residence card issued by you. The letter stated that if my situation ever changed, I'd need to notify the Home Office ...
Aaaa, ok. So it's going to be the same between Bulgaria amd the adjoining eu countries as if they were emtering the uk, simply the border checks will remain to prevent illegals entering through, supposedly cause it'd be easier. Thx for the clarification Hang on, does this mean all those exercising t...
Hang on, does this mean all those exercising treaty rights abroad have to return and apply for visas? What about joining the eu and free movement? Is that withdrawn???
Merry xmas n happy new year! People married to Brit nationals dont have to wait one year when they get ILR for instance, it's somewhere in the act, i'm not at my laptop but u can google it n find it. There r certain rules for it such as the ILR holder must have been present in the uk for 3 years so ...
Just a quick thought. Those non-EEA family members who have lived in the UK with the EEA National (a Brit relying on the Surinder Singh) would not have to wait 12 months on the permanent residence status, but could directly apply for Naturalisation (provided the Life in the UK test is passed and the...
No, as you are still in employment. SSP, Holidays and other "days off" do not mean you are not employed. Also, do not rush back into work because of this concern, take as much time (and more if you can :) as you need! YOU ARE A WORKER/EMPLOYED until resign yourself or are "sacked" and even then, if ...

this was a funny coincidence, both posts are practically identical in following the line of thinking, great minds think alike
