Hi all.....I hope some one can please help me here. I am a naturalized Irish citizen and my wife is non-eu. We have an Irish citizen child too. I have a permanent job in Ireland. Can we get an EEA family permit for UK, even though we just want to visit uk at different dates on very short, from 3 days to not more than a week at a time. And in case of northern ireland maybe just a day? The purpose of these short visits is just to visit family and also tourism. BTW, can we visit northern ireland together with out EEA FP?
Thanks a million.

Hiya As far as I'm aware you can use it for exactly that. Our situation is slightly different (I'm a UK citizen exercising treaty rights in Germany and have a non-EU wife) but otherwise we use the EEA Family Permit for exactly the same reason and in the same way.

It's a pain that the EEA FP only lasts for 6 months at a time, but otherwise within those 6 months you can make many short visits for any reason you see fit

Hi

Thanks for your reply.
