EEA2 application refusal

We just made an EEA2 application for my husband to the HO. They have returned the documents that they require more proof of residency in the UK for my husband. That is not a problem, we will send the relevant documents.

However, I am a student, and a full-time worker. I have been in the UK for 3 years, and being a EU resident. Currently started to study at university, but i am still working full-time which I can prove with P60 and payslips, bank statements. HO said they require me to have comprehensive sickness insurance, but I do not even know what that is. I am registered with the NHS for a quite while and even EHIC card I have from UK, not outside the UK. Why should I have insurance if I am already paying National Insurance and Tax?

Please help, what documents should I send.

Best Regards,

If you are working full time, you are a worker. To prove that, you need an employment contract or a letter from your employer.

For your husband's application, he needs his passport, your marriage certificate and proof that you qualify for a residence certificate as a worker (ie your employment contract or letter from your employer and either your passport or national ID card).

NOTHING ELSE can be asked for.

CSI is comprehensive sickness insurance and is required of students. You are a worker so don't need that.

Re-apply, clearly stating the basis by which you are applying. State that no additional documentation can be asked for (proof of address, CSI, etc).

Hi, simply because HO presumes that you are a student not a worker who they need CSI,,,,so like EUsmileWEallsmile said, just apply again and clearly prove it you are working,,,you should be fine,,GOOD LUCK
