BRC query

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if someone could help or advise me regarding a query I have about receiving the BRC for EEA2 application: both me and my husband applied for EEA-QP (me) and EEA2 (him) and we have received all our papers that we have submitted in April (with the application), but we didn't receive any letter regarding his BRC if he got it or not. We only received my certificate of application but nothing about his application, is it normal? Did someone face the same problem as us? Does this mean that his application got refused? What do you suggest that we should do?

Many thanks in advance!

A friend of mine experience the same as you. They first answer EEA national before NON EEA even if it's on same application.

But, shouldn't they send a letter or something as all our papers come back (including our passports0 in the same envelope? Will he get the paper separately or he suppose to get the BRC without one? How many days does it take to receive the BRC?

Thanks

When did you apply?

Edit. I saw that you applied in April, there is no letter in from HO inthe envelope with all the documents? Do you have email with case IDs?

Sorry, I have submitted all our papers in May and he received in July his CoA with the right of work and this week we have received all our documents back together with my certificate for QP, but he didn't get any letter about his BRC in the envelope. We didn't get any emails from HO in regards with our applications. The case ID I only have it from the letter that they send when my husband had to go to submit his biometric details. Is there a way on how we can investigate about the letter or know the result of the decision?

Check here with the case ID, we submitted everything in May as well, biometric end of June, and CoA early July. Last week we received the card.

I have already checked it and it says Decided, but my question is: shouldn't we get a letter with the documents they send back to us and letting us know what was the decision? or they don't send letters they only send the BRC and in case you don't receive anything within 10 working days, then you can call them and query it?

Try sending a letter to:

Freepost RRYX-GLYU-GXHZ
Returns unit
P.O Box 163
Bristol
BS20 1AB

Include your name, date of birth, nationality, email, telephone number and very importantly, your case reference number. Tell them you want to know the decision of your application as you did not receive any letter. I sent a letter there because my BPR did not arrive after 10 working days. I don't know if this is the right place to send a letter but you may want to give it a try.
