EEA Appeal allowed, what next now??
Posted: Wed Aug 26, 2015 4:21 pm
I applied for confirmation of my permanent residence in July 2014, and was refused. I appeal to the first-tier tribunal fortunately my appeal was allowed and I received the letter from the court today, now I know I will to wait for at least 14 days after the date of the letter to see if the HO would appeal against the decision.
my questions are:
1. As my appeal has been allowed how do I go about getting my PR, can I do this myself or a solicitor will be needed, my current solicitor is asking for more money which is short at the moment, however I am of the opinion that my solicitor has been taking me for a ride as he submitted the initially refused application in the first place without attaching some documents, resulting to me forking out another £1,680 this is after paying £850 for the application that was refused due to lack of sufficient supporting evidence, now he is asking for another £400 to chase my PR with HO.
2. How long does this process take before I can get my PR and can i still keep my passport while i wait as I would like to travel on booked holiday with my family.
When my initial EEA4 application was refused, since the reason it was refused was based on not providing enough evidence I suggested that I make a fresh EEA4 application, but my lawyer insisted that I make an appeal despite the fact the this will be more more costly option and the appeal process ended up taking more than six months that a fresh application would have taken.
Any advise would be helpful
