Is the EEA Family Permit obligatory for me?
Posted: Mon Aug 18, 2014 4:45 pm
Hi everyone,
I'm a Singaporean, married to a French citizen. We're currently living in France and we are planning to leave for London in Oct as he has a job waiting for him there. As a Singaporean, I know that I can legally enter the UK and stay there for up to 6 months without a visa.
I'm wondering if it's obligatory for me to apply for an EEA family permit before applying for an EEA2, or could I just go to London as a tourist and apply for the EEA2 directly when we've settled down.
Also, I think I'll have to go back to Paris for some appointments in the near future, after our move.
Thanks for your help!
