ok but getting tier 2 general is not easy to get like the PSW + TIER 1 + ILR route ? do you agree. Also I have heard that Tier 2 route is getting abused like the TIER 1 and many people are trying to get bogus Tier 2 visa whic means this route will be under home office radar and they soon will have ...

Hi all, I have a question. I am going to bring my wife to the UK. She is now in Germany and has applied for asylum and still has not been interviewed. Is it possible for her to apply for a spouse visa in the UK embassy in Germany to come here? If yes, what documents she needs to have and how is the...

Apart from the initial EEA FP application, where will your husband be when you apply for RC? He has to move ahead of you or with you and you will have to provide proof that he is living with you in the UK. Is it absolutely certain that you can't apply for a Tier 4 student visa from Spain? You are a ...

My current visa is tier 4 which is going to expire this 5th of October 2016. My wife is America citizen and she lives in Republic of Ireland with her family. She does not have European passport but she dependent on her step father. Where are you planning to live? USA? Are you planning to switch fro...

Thanks for all your replies The fact is, I am not aware of how to this in Germany ... Would UK home office accept me to apply for a spouse visa for a asylum seeker? What is the procedure? If she needs to get refugee status in Germany, God knows how long would it take time. I know if she goes back h...

Hi, Yes I can do that in Germany or I can wait for her to go back and do it in another country like turkey or do it by post. Could you please explain the possibilities? Thanks a lot Have you researched this? Getting married to a non-EEA national is a lengthy, complicated and expensive thing to do, ...

We fell down that hole (nearly) Think also it was 3 months rent up front, deposit AND 2.75 months rent to rental agent as the tenant pays this fee in Germany, not the Landlord.... Standard is: One month rent upfront, Deposit of three months rent Best to avoid agents, look for "Provisionsfrei". If t...

Ok my husband has a tourist visa and that's the issue. We don't know how we "convert" that into what it needs to be. We do have quite significant savings (and proof thereof) if the issue is supporting ourselves? Does your wife have a job in Germany? I'm self employed so in theory could register a G...

Ok I take that on board but can anyone answer my original question please. We just want to know what to do at point of arrival. You also need to factor in the numerous public holidays in May: 5th May is a holiday in all of Germany 16th May is a holiday in all of Germany 26th May is a holiday in som...

Ok I take that on board but can anyone answer my original question please. We just want to know what to do at point of arrival. Does he have a tourist visa or a Schengen visa issued under EU rules as spouse of an EEA national? 15 days sounds more like a tourist visa. You will have to register your ...

Thanks so much to vinny and simple.simon for all of your help. I really appreciate the thorough explanations. As far as the children go, we're not looking to get them citizenship (at least, not right now). We just want to make sure that, as minors, there won't be a problem for them to accompany us ...

As others have already mentioned, it is important to be able to convince the ECO that your auntie will be leaving UK after the sho the short visit. You know (from personal knowledge) that she will leave UK. She knows that from her personal circumstances. But the ECO has only the documents to go by....

Thanks ALKB, So it is clear as mud, i strongly believe that if non EU family members are in EU before all these changes, Uk can not build walls over the night to stop their own citizens along with non EU members living with them in another EU countries. I reckon the rules will be tightened but cert...

Hi ALKB, The comment regarding stopping close relative to UK, there are many detailed discussion happened on this group and no one is aware as what will be the outcome, however the white paper released for new EU rules if UK stays in EU only emphasize on spouses and do not discuss particularly for ...

I just googled it and yes you are right these are all furnished and very expensive. Do you know of any local websites / letting agencies I can look at? Letting agencies are less common in Germany and charge the tenant huge fees (often several months rent = Provision). Try this: http://www.zwischenm...

So if I arrive in Germany with parents before 23 June and lets suppose we manage to get RC based on Self-Sufficiency or I find work, how would that apply to us. Because then we will have lawful residence before the secondary legislation kicks in. Also what does that mean "all non-EU nationals will ...

Have you researched where most of the jobs are for your specific expertise? Have you researched where in Germany you will go at all? I have an uncle in Dussledorf so i was hoping that if I get a flat/house for 5 near him for the first 3 months then it would give me a chance to look for work. When I...

Talking to a German immigration lawyer is a good idea. Just make sure they know that you are dealing with EU and not domestic immigration law. It's quite different. I have an appointment with the Lawyer next week but she has answered the main question I asked that YES we can apply for RC whilst in ...

Someone threw a spanner in the plan earlier. I rang up the Residence Permit section of German Embassy UK to ask if my parents are issued with a Tourist Visa would they be able to apply for Residence Permit directly in Germany. The woman on the other side replied NO and they have to go back to home ...
