Congratulations and thank you for posting this.

You need to get an apostille added to the marriage certificate. The Department of Foriegn Affairs (DFA) at the Estonian embasy or consulate should do it for you but you normally have to pay a fee. There are agents online that can arrange to have it done for you but they charge a lot for this so it c...

How I see it the financial requirement being raised to £18600 has cost the Tories the next election. The media have blurted out and exposed every instance related to increased immigration and the fact the British citizens wanting their families to be with them are finding other possible routes. Weve...

Go to Gardai now and register her as being in the country as wife of someone exercising treaty rights, they will give her a temporary GNIB card. You want one with temporary stamp 4 so insist on it. It should be valid for 90 days during which time you need to apply for the permanent one.

OK theres a few that do it, they might discover her history and just say no you cant have a visa, they might say they think her intention is to not go back so refuse a visa. The cost of applying for a visa and being refused is high, I prefer to use my funds on something that has a better chance. I h...

A ban dont count for family route. If there is a ban you might have to ask for it to be removed.
My gf was an overstayer but nothing said to her about a ban either.

I'm 61 years old and been incapacitated since 1992. I have no fear of doing it neither should you.

Break down your route into doable chunks and work out whether you can fund them. Phase 1, get married. With flights, notary fees, wedding fees you should be able to do it for £1500 Phase 2, wife applies for visa to join you in chosen country, theres 27 to choose from if one application fails you try...

Regarding the moving of center of life this make interesting reading. https://www.freemovement.org.uk/eu-to-investigate-uk-interpretation-of-surinder-singh/ and the letter that goes with it, http://www.freemovement.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/EU-Commission-letter-anon.pdf UK hasn't complied ye...

Take out a loan, renegotiate mortgage, borrow from freinds, sell what ever you can of value. £8k is not impossible. Let your kids know if they want to continue living there they will have to pay the upkeep of the house while you are away. That you talk of selling your house to be with the one you lo...

The c456/12 case states over 3 months is enough.
But be prepared for 6 to 9 monts, anything less is a bonus.

2. Who is exempt from payment of the fee?

5. Dependants of EU nationals who receive a residence permit under EU Directive 38/04.

Get youselves to Garda and apply http://www.garda.ie/controller.aspx?page=31 Your wife should be issued a temporary card. It should be free. Registration All non-nationals who are not citizens of a member State of the European Union, the European Economic Area or Switzerland, must register with An G...

It dont matter if its for one day. You are in a host state exercising treaty rights and as such you can stay for 90 days. Article 6 Right of residence for up to three months 1. Union citizens shall have the right of residence on the territory of another Member State for a period of up to three month...

Yep can go to any EU country you like.

Ah just read you are from Slovakia and partner from Turkey so not sure

for the treaty rights route you need to be working, self-employed, a student or self-sufficient, the last 2 you need to have comprenensive health insurance. The level of money is not set in stone and varies between states. Bulgaria is easy because they require you to open a bank account and deposit ...

Hong Kong can be booked online and only needs 2 days there, has the advantage that marriage cert will be in English. Downfall is the need for apostilles and notary signatures on some docs, beware of that and prepare well. Was the choice between Bulgaria and Cyprus for us in the end. Cyprus need her ...

Its an expensive possibility but you could get married and that will make other things possible. The ban wont count if you want her to come here under the family reunification route or do a treaty rights route. I'm in a similar situation, my Filipino girl left last November as an overstayer. We get ...

You say girlfriend, this could mean just good mates.
Do you think you will be having a permanent relationship with this girl?

worth looking at

Cheating, well there is a bit about not using the EEA rules to get around the National rules on immigration.

Whatever your plans dont mention that you are going to the host state in order to get into another state.

You will find Dublin and other cities expensive.

If both these couple joined forces they could easily rent a 3 bed house in the sticks between them.

"to exercise my treaty rights for my wife to get into the UK eventually" No youre not :roll: we dont mention that sort of thing because it might seem you are trying to cheat the system. The overstay should not matter because you wont be using national rules you will be using EU rules. I would hope t...

What you have to clarify is under what rules he is in the UK. Ok you know he can go there as an EU citizen but under treaty rights he would only be allowed to stay for up to 90 days. After that he would have to be working, self-employed, a student or self-sufficient. As a student or self-sufficient ...

Council tax would be burden on state so no he could not claim. But what I'm discussing with Obie is whether EEA3 could be used and get permanent residence straight away in which case I dont think being burden on state would still be a problem. I could be very wrong on this so it should be dicussed a...

Yes yes thats for a worker. But a person with a long term incapacity or disability before they enter a host state, are they not allowed free movement? Seems very discriminatory to me, maybe something that needs a stiff letter to the EU. The EEA3 form does not say the person needed to be working, it ...
