Renewal of EEA (PR)

[woodsdevil]

Hi,
I am French and my wife has the EEA Permanent Residence card since 2007,
so in 2017 she will need to apply for the renewal. It is now so different from the time
we applied for her where the form was only 3 pages long. Now it is asking for everything,
and they need proof of residence from the time she was granted the PR which is 2007.
They want 2 documents from each year, but it is not possible to get all of them dating back to 2007.
We more or less have for the last 4/5 years? Is that alright?

Thanks,

Note it is not mandatory to use the latest 'monster' form.
You may use an older version (see Gov UK archive website) or even apply by letter.

Bon chance!

Why don't you apply for British citizenship ? then you wouldn't have to renew!

Really? coz the old form is so much easier.
Does any one has a pdf copy of the old form?

And the reason why my wife didn't apply for UK citizenship as her country of origin doesn't allow for dual citizenship.

See http://www.immigrationboards.com/eea-ro ... l#p1175013
- you will see there is a link to a mere 27-page form from 2012
