Can anybody please tell me that...is it essential to take photographs (wedding and relationship time) to the interview@ I dont have many wedding picture as we didnt celebrate our ceremony yet. I have only few picture which was taken on the register day. Do u think that will be enough for me to take...

Good news indeed.

It is not likely that the person would qualify.

Read through directive 2004/38/ec for more information.

Moved to correct forum section.

Contact UKBA and ask them to comply with the judgement.

If the child is not an EU national, and a visa national, you can apply for an EEA family permit.

Proof that you are the parent and proof that either you or spouse are exercising treaty rights in the UK (working, student, self-sufficient) will be required.

Hi guys, In the EEA2 application there are several ways identified to prove that a sponsor is working. My question is whether one of those methods (e.g. letter from the employer OR employment contract OR both) would be enough or is it recommended to wait a month to have the payslip as well? Have ap...

I'm not sure it would be a good idea not to get an EEA family permit, the main reasons being: - The UK Border Agency's policy is that everyone should get one - My spouse cannot make a EEU2 application until I have been exercising treaty rights (>3 months) - The application itself could take months ...

an eu family member can start work on arrival in the UK , straight apply for a national insurence nr . thats it . I think COA is an ID just for confirmation because the passport is at home office . Visa sticker ll be enough for your wife to start work or COA ( confirmation of application )would be ...

What did you get for your £100? You are a little vague on specifics.

It would be a good idea to read through directive 2004/38/ec to understand your rights.

They ought to be identical.

It is a common misunderstanding that if a person is married to a British citizen, they do not need a Schengen visa to enter the Schengen area. The United Kingdom is not part of the Schengen agreement, that is why if you are a British spouse and hold resident permit or indefinite leave to remain you...

@ OP, a visa will be expected if one is a third country national who requires a visa. If one holds a UK residence card (careful, must be issued under terms of directive 2004/38/ec), and travelling to join or accompany EU national, no visa would be required. Applying for a visa would be free and shou...

You may not have been charged, which is nice. However, if there is no freedom of movement element (i.e. accompanying or joining EU national), then normal Schengen rules apply.

A residence card might take up to six months (hopefully quicker). A COA will be issued "immediately", which will specify that the holder can work.

In what context?

You may find that a normal photocopy will do just fine.

As long as you exercise treaty rights (worker, self-sufficient, student), your wife's stay is perfectly legal. I note you have another thread regarding your accommodation. It is best to stick to one thread (appreciating that your questions are different). The entry you attempted to make was under ar...

If wife is exercising treaty rights, you have the right to work right now. The right to work stems from the directive 2004/38/ec.

Yes you can work. Your wife's ID might require to be replaced if it is damaged. A passport or national ID are fine for such applications.

EUsmileWEallsmile: I don't want to complain -- I'm basically pleased with the way we've been treated! Perhaps my expectations were very low after dealing with immigration authorities in the US, India, and the UK. But I think the INIS has been responsive, fair, and decent. And, if they hadn't been, ...

The right to work stems directly from the directive. I acknowledge the practical difficulties one may have demonstrating the right to work without the expected documentation.

How far to you have to travel? How inconvenient is the interview location and time? Thank you @EUsmileWEallsmile for your comment. Its long far from southeast London to Liverpool. From my place to interview place is around 260 miles and time givven for the interview is 12pm. So I think I have to st...

I don't know of one, but it is possible.

In my understanding, by the romanian embassy site, the eea1 is for one to prove he is a lawful resident in the uk. I agree with the romanian embassy that, from their perspective, it makes sense There is no UK requirement for registration, unlike some other EU member states. The embassy ought to be ...
