Posted a Thread about this last night, but it seems to have disappeared/deleted? Anyway, here's my update - Arrived last night with the little lady. I never completed a Landing Card, but was told by the IO that it was required as it was her first entry to the UK. I said it wasn't required, IO said i...
Hi Salem thanks for the reply, you say visa already sorted? What visa you needed to apply for? And to who? Thanks Family Permit Franko, though i think that's just a UK thing. Not really sure what the ROI require, though i'm sure you'll get the answer here. But you definately can do it, then stay in...
Hi Jimbo thanks for your response, so you mean she is required to live with me in Ireland right? Is it ok that untill now we have never lived together? And how do I get her into Ireland? Do I need to apply for a permit first? Or can I just turn up there with her with the necessary evidence and gain...
Hi Franko, Yes Mate, you can. Much the same as me in reverse, i hold an Irish Passport, but live and work in London. I was able to use this to bring my Asian Wife over, well, she's arriving end of November with me, all Visa stuff already acquired. And as Jambo says, you can then use the SS route to ...
your non-eu spouse will definitely need visa to enter Ireland as per the following weblink (Question #5). http://www.embassyofireland.co.uk/home/index.aspx?id=75477#FAQ5 Yes the EEA2 application processing time is really unpredictable and it may hinder your christmas holidays but why not you apply ...
Hi Frankie I'm similar, in that i'm bringing my wife with me to N.Ireland at Xmas for the first time, who is also non EU on a Family Permit, expires April. We're holding off on applying for the RC untill we fly back, same reason as yourself, need Passports to fly, at least with Aer Lingus you do. Bu...
Landing cards for non-EEA family members of an EEA national are not required. The Immigration Directorate Instructions (Chapter 7, Section 3, Paragraph 5.2.1) state that such persons should not, except for their first entry in this capacity, be required to complete a UK landing card. This aspect of...
Hi, My Wife will be arriving in the UK with me next Month, on EEA FP, already received. I am an EU National, living and working in London for many Years. I have read that my Wife will not get her Passport stamped on arrival, but i have also read that it is better that she does for proof of the date ...
[quote="sum1Reading the law and fully understanding it are totally different things. Most people do not have that expertise.

Strange Thread. I only joined recently, and have been given some excellent advice and info from Mods and Guru's. But everyone is only human, everyone makes mistakes. In my case, i just do as much research and get as much info as i can. I'm very thankfull for this Forum and the time and advice given ...
Thanks :D I called up my Power supplier yesterday afternoon, asked them if they had received my fax? They said yes, and it was actioned on Thursday, so my next Bill (due in a week or so) will have both my own, and my Wife's name on the Bill. Happy days, so hopefully that's the Bank A/C and GP sorted...
I understand what you guys are saying, but after reading the Website and calling them, my Wife's Passport it has to be! Maybe just a specific Policy of Aer Lingus, not sure. It's one Tube to Heathrow and Aer Lingus from where i live, could fly with Easyjet from Gatwick, Luton, Stanstead. But it's a ...
Was just talking to Aer Lingus. Because my Wife is not a UK or Irish National, she has to bring her Passport or she cannot board. National ID Cards are only allowed if the person is an UK or Irish National.
Not sure if this rule is just specific to Aer Lingus?
Hi, I've just emailed Aer Lingus, so should have a written confirmation soon on whether my Wife needs her Passport to travel. It actually would help me, we could apply for RC before we travel, but i want to see it in writing before i take a chance. I'm aware of UKBA at Belfast, but i would bring a s...

I'm a dual National myself. Basically, if have not applied before the Rule change on 16th July, then you will no longer qualify. My non EU Wife applied for her FP on Friday 13th July, which was granted and issued, and stays on the old Rules for as long as we stay together. For life then hopefully :D...

Last week We opened a bank a/c with Barclays for my wife with just her nioj EU passport and a council tax bill in joint names. GP just took her without any questions.. Hi Mark, Thanks for the input.
