I was wondering if there are anyone willing to state there experience on refusal of british citizenship base on convictions here. My friend N was told and show some paper at the checking centre (where you take your bc app to be checked for a fee before sending off to ukba) that he will have to wait ...
Good for you, but I will point out that you were not undocumented, you had an article 10 residence card, which allows you to travel visa free if accompanied by your spouse. Thank you for the update and the story. Yes, you were documented, and you should not have had an issue anyway Glad it went wel...

Hi guys, thank for your response. It was I little too late. However, i'm please to say I travelled to France without a visa. The only issue was the unintelligent border guard placing an exit stamp in my passport. Arrived at the airport went through security, got to boarding gate calm but shaky insid...
Are there anyother text other than Article 5 and 10 of the deirective I can use to proof that I do not require a visa to France though my spouse is French.
Since i'm really worried whether or not i'll be allowed to get on board Easyjet flight to Paris travelling with my French national spouse and not to talk about French border officer refusing me entry into France if I manage to get there. I have decide to come here again and seek advice, plenty of it...
and rc, made very brief enquiry with colleague and return my passport without placing stamp in it. Good, I'm not sure why you bothered with the visa. Thanks EUsmileWEallsmile, The visa was for a trip to France with my French national spouse (the french doesn't seem to recognise eea regs apply to it...
Thanks all for your contributions. Currently in Vienna waiting to connect my flight to Asia with my wife. We did went through border police to experience for the first time if indeed we can travel together without visa (with the exception of France last year when i travelled with visa) I am please t...
hi guys, a brief update regarding my application. Schengen visa application was refused Reason given: the information submitted regarding the justification for the purpose and conditions of the intended stay was not reliable. I am disappointed. Really I as do not have enough time to re-apply before ...
Thanks ca.funke I recieved an email from the austrian embassy not long after my application I was quite confused, thought they refused the visa and wanted to go and collect my passport. Anyway amonst other stuff in the email the following are perhaps the most relevant; (You applied for a visa at the...
Thanks ca.funke I had read but threads several time before today. However, I don't think it helps in my situation as I do not intend travelling to Austria with my spouse. I did some homework but certainly not enough as I got cut out in regards to 'where you plan to visit in Vienna'. The point she m...
Hi guys, Can you please tell me if not knowing places you intend to visit in Vienna is enough to refuse an non eea family visa. I flopped on my trip to the Austrian embassy. I suppose I was grilled more than the previous applicants, anyway I guess that's irrelevant. I was ask why and where I intend ...
Well done, I guessed you have single handedly succeeded in convincing the Lithuanian embassy in London to change their stand in regards eea family member free movement right.
People like you and many other on the forum are very much needed in solvit, eu commission etc.
One more thing I failed to ask in previous post is- I've just got 14- 15 days (appointment date:from 10/07) before I travel which should be enough to get a schengen visa. But in order to avoid missing my flight can I (as a non eaa family)ask that the process is accelerated? If so, must I put it in w...
Surprise!! Had a look at the website again then found there's an earlier appointment. Perhaps someone had there Appoinrment cancelled or postponed or may be they add new appoinrment daily. I'll have a look tomorrow. Anyway can you guys please advice on this- For example; Can I use a multi entry sche...
Thanks for your detailed reply, please check website below for appointment booking system http//www.bmeia.gv.at/en/embassy/london/practical-advice/schengen-visa-residence-permits.html bluecole2 wrote: Also is it possible to travel to manchester or edinburgh as it seem they offer quicker appointment ...
Hi bluecole2, how do you know that they have appointments (only) in 18 days? Phone, their website...? This is clearly illegal, appointments have to be available for EVERYONE within 2 weeks (=14 days), and for EEA-family members the 2 weeks have to be "accelerated", so if 18 days is correct, it´s si...
Hi guys, I am looking to get Shengen visa, but the ealiest appointment from the Austrian embassy is 18 days from now and that will leave me with 7 days to wait for the visa as i'm going abroad. My question are: 1- as a non eea- Nigerian (of eea national) can I get an ealier apppointment (say within ...
HI guys, just want to discuss my experience and hopfully get some answers. I recently tried to apply for Chinese visa for spouse (French)and myself (Nigerian) and we followed the requirements on here below: http://www.visaforchina.org/LON_EN/visainstruction/250040.shtml At the app centre I was told ...
I agree with you Directive 2004/38/EC, although that's in comparison to embassy staffs whom are necessarily not an IO. If you and I know this regulations, perhaps because of our interest and neither of us is an IO, why shouldn't all IO know this? I mean it's elementary. Can you imagine a teacher alw...
As far as I'm concerned most of the border guards lack knowledge when it comes to eea regulations, especially for eea family member. Perhaps showing them this little piece of info(s) will help with re-educating them. Providing border guards with a small leaflet that states eea rc/pr 'do(s) and 'don'...
A remedy might be to give them our passport together with a bold typed message that says- ACCORDING TO DIRECTIVE 2004/38/EC article bla!!! YOU MAY NOT STAMP MY PASSPORT EITHER AT THE POINT OF ENTRY OR EXIT!!! And if they choose to do so without consulting their manager or supervisor then they perhap...
