Overall, we were issued with a stamp "admitted under 2006 regulation" and a dated entry stamp. The 2006 regulations were revoked in February! There seems to be a new stamp coming into use with no explicit 6 month limit. That I find difficult to agree on. It explicitly refers to 2006 regulations

I think our recent experience of gaining A1 code for my wife, a Russian citizen, will be of use to fellow members. I am an Irish national, higher education professional, with a full contract on my hands. I also hold a PR. We wanted to apply from Russia but were told it would take in excess of 3 mont...

Hello, I am currently in Russia where I want to apply for a Family Permit for my wife. This visa section seems to be the most insulated with no direct emails and no direct phone numbers. The embassy itself is also impregnable. I recall from somewhere seeing that EEA applications can enjoy direct acc...

Hello, I am getting married in Russia, with a Russian national and will bring my wife back to UK. I need an advise whether applying for a FAMILY PERMIT (at the embassy in Russia) or 1A (at the border) is the most appropriate step. I marry my wife-to-be in mid may 2017, followed by a honeymoon trip t...

any suggestions please?

Many thanks

Hello, I have gathered all evidence relating to my PR applications. I am particularly concerned with all evidence that is required in support for my self-employment status. Based on that, I have gathered evidence for the qualifying period of 2012 - 2016 1. Evidence of tax returns x 5 2. Evidence of ...

Hi, we travelled to Dublin from Belfast. Upon exiting from the filling station (and prior to joining the actual motorway) we got hit by the car, my parent requiring to go to hospital with suspected neck injuries. I was approached by a witness (of which I tool a verbal statement), took photos of the ...

my colleague is keen to write a paper on bollock(s)-ology in modern British politics! European politicians (specifically, French and German) indicated that the rights of British expats (what a seksi term for immigrants, right?!) would be universally guaranteed. The penny does not drop in Britain as ...

Post-entry into UK, dependent family members of an EEA national are issued with the residence card that affords them unrestricted employment. In cases other than spouses (e.g. relatives, parents), is there a need for continuous financial dependency on the EEA national beyond living in the same house...

Thank you MGB We received the response to our email: Dear Sir or Madam, My name is xxx and I am an Irish citizen. I reside in UK and my parents are holders of EEA Residence Cards (Family members of a EU citizen) issued in accordance with article 10 of Directive 2004/38/EC. My question is the followi...

I am an Irish national residing in UK. My parents - non-EEA nationals - are with me in UK on foot of EEA Residence cards which they obtained through their dependence on me. In 2015, when my parents joined me in UK, I applied for an EEA Family Permit for my non-EEA grandfather to come and join me in ...

My parents are in possession of the UK-issued EEA Residence Cards and we plan holidays in Cyprus. I was surprised that this country (clearly a beneficiary of EEA/2004/38/EC) is selective in dispensing who would benefit from the freedom of movement when it comes to the home turf. 6. Spouses/ Dependan...

Thank you for that!

Normally they ask for proof of address like bills on your name is the best, PPS number (payslip, original PPS letter, PPS card, Irish EHIC card), 55eur, you can pay by card on the spot. If you will go for it outside Dublin probably you dont need online appointment just walk in, put your name in the...

I am Irish, living in NI. I hold the UK Driving licence. I want to exchange it for IRL one. I want to cross the border and to apply for one. What shall I be made aware of?

It appears that Gibraltar Poland Cyprus Czech Republic Croatia Norway Belgium do not insist on holders of UK-issued EEA Residence Card of a family member of EEA national to travel together with the EEA national or to join EEA nationals in those countries. Said differently, a holder of a card - a non...

The abuse would be just doing a few translation jobs a week to apparently keep up your status as a qualified person. Now I'm not sure if legally that would be abuse - I don't understand why some actions are abuse and others are not guilty by affiliation and not really sure how to respond to that. I...

with an accusation that you were abusing the system to allow your parents to live with you. I don't know how well such an argument would fare with the courts. Not sure what you mean there Richard. If abuse quantified in terms of reliance on social benefits than this issue is a non-issue. On the oth...

How many hours a week are you working at making money when you're in the UK? 10-12 hours has been suggested as sufficient for a 'worker' in Kempf (case C-139/85), though I do wonder if he was in fact self-employed. I presume time spent drumming up business also counts - is your published research a...

Thank you all guys for finding time to respond. I will try to state fact, feel free to spin it either way. 1. I am Irish and was resident in NI for at least 5 years (but after 2006). I selected last 5 years as the qualifying period for simplicity. 2. During this time I was employed as a postgraduate...

I would kindly ask for an advice from experienced forum members. My parents, non-EEA nationals, reside in UK on foot of an EEA Residence Card. We gone through the tribunal to prove their dependence, it was duly attested in court, it was ruled in our favour. This ruling was accepted by UKBA who subse...

Dependence can be out of choice. In plain English, it means that if your parents CHOSE to be dependent on you and you can provide evidence of supporting them over a period of time, their background and vast estate is immaterial. Lim is a good case (google it). you might need to re-submit the applica...
