HI can you confirm if you have an existing leave to remain that allows you to work before you submitted your application for the EEA2? If you do then you can still maintain same statute to your old visa under the Section 3C immigration act.
If your lawyer want to write to them then you just have to claim the HO failed to acknowledge the covering letter stating your marriage will be registered because I belief you must have been giving the short version of COA with no right of work which states either you are unmarried partners or your didn't submit passport or marriage certificate.
You have mentioned you submitted your ID. What ID is it because HO wants your passport if you're not an EEA national. You have also provided them with enough evidence so fingers crossed you get your RC soon.

Thanka for reply ...I came uk in 2008 as a student, and then extend visa twice as a student then I was misguide by other and in short I apply for assylm .then in 2013 I get married with very practicing convert polish girl.when I was going for marriage of intension , my lawyer said some time home office come as well so ring me if any problem , well I said I am genuine so I have no fear , , anyways we both went for marriage of intension and registerar didn't book our wedding because we didn't book the wedding venue and she give us another date.then my lawywr said home office might come this is why registerar give you another date , I said the same I don't have fear ..in short we book venue in next appointment. ..but because of misguideance and wrong laywer I apply for eea2 on islamic nikka and said our official wedding date ..then again lawyer said they can come on wedding day and in our wedding day it was like 40 guest including from both sides and if the office will come it seem that they are stupid ...in covering letter I mentioned that she is converted and want marry before live together and we met on marriage website .so now I was on assylm when I apply for eea2 then later a month send marriage certificate but coa was issued that time with no right of work ...now my application is completed and my wife is working as well , I heard that I can work if I have marriage certificate and wife working ? Its almost 4 months now . I get alot of info from here otherwise I would have to wait and cry for solicitor and pay pay and pay ..my case is simple and straightforward I think .

If you call the HO now it won't help cos they are still in their time frame according to the directive but you can write them at the Liverpool address on yor COA requesting them to issue you a correct COA. The reason in your case behind the no right to work to my knowledge or idea is that you should have waited to have your marriage certificate at hand before applying cos now HO might refuse issuing you a right to work or even ignore your letter till they reach decision as they can base the fact that on your date of application and documents provided at the time of application and the COA was issues based on the supporting documents provided at the time of application other documents you have sent to them is giving more evidence to prove your marriage exists but it's 4 months so I see no reason why you can't just wait for 2 months cos what you have waited is not up to what you have to for. Just stay focus and feel free to ask members questions on the forum when you are confused I bet you will get more advice on here than from a solicitor as they base their work on their experience.

Hey mate,
I laugh when I read such comments (not in a bad way) but can I ask if your lawyer is working for free? If s/he will not call you and you can not call him/her and only communicate via email then I believe you do not have a lawyer you only have an advisor who does not care about your situation. I pity you even more if you are paying him/her from your hard earned pounds.
To answer your questions:
1. Home Office case worker has done the right thing issuing you acknowledgement without right to work. Based on the policy with which they operate which is available online, you will only receive COA with RTW when married etc. You later submitted marriage certificate. Application is being considered without the proof of marriage when COA was issued
2. Yeah if your lawyer writes, you may get the COA with RTW if they have received your sent docs after you applied. Have you used recorded/signed for to send documents or do you have proof it was sent and also received by HO?
3. About your case: It is not straight forward and may take some time so be prepared to fight back. If you do not have a solicitor who you can call at any time, my advise to you is to look for another one.
A word is enough for the wise. A solicitor can be compared to a doctor in several ways. Besides God, they both are the only people you do not lie to. Also imagine a diabetic patient that can not call his doctor at any time and only sends email. I laugh hard because by the time the doctor receives the email, (s)he will be dead.....ACT ON THIS

Section 3C doesn't apply to applications under EEA regulations, only to applications under the immigration rules.

Hey,
Good to hear that you have an interview. I was thinking you will ask the forum to help you with what t expect or have you been to one before?
I would advice you try to go to a hearing before yours so you are familiar with the process. Its a very relaxed environment. Just a couple of questions to ascertain your claims. Wish you the best

Hi don't think of claim and just be prepared for the unexpected so you need to aware of everything happening in your house, around you, about your partner and vice-versa.

Yes marriage team is different but they are all working for the UKBA and they can straight away input your result on your file or even ring the case worker for the outcome as the case worker too would be aware you were having your interview yesterday.
