EUSS Family Permit for mother in law

Dear all,

I have applied for an EUSS Family Permit and have been contacted by the Home Office (email from Liverpool visa office) asking for my(sponsor's) EU passport.

I have sent the passport to them without a delay and have received it back. I am a bit confused as they had already asked for the sponsor's passport or ID card at the application submission point. Sponsor's ID card was presented with the application as it was one of the requirements on the document checklist.

Does anyone know the time frame after they have sent the sponsor's passport back,
Can anyone advise if they have had the similar experience.

Here is the time line
17th Feb Application submitted for EUSs FP

17th Application received at the UK decision making centre(via email)

28th Feb email from Liverpool to say not straight forward application (2 emails at exact same time)

28th Feb email from Liverpool to ask for Sponsor's passport or ID card(2 emails at exact same time)

29th Sponsor's passport sent as requested by HO

7th March passport sent back by the Liverpool office.


You help is very much appreciated 😀

Check this thread out:

eea-route-applications/eu-settlement-no ... 78577.html

Nobody can ever tell you how long your own application will take to get a decision. Even if you find people with the same profile as yours, it doesn't mean that your application would take exactly the same time.

Look on that thread to get an idea but anything beyond that, is mere speculation.

Hi,

I have applied for an EU Settled Scheme Family Permit fir my mother in law. the application checklist stated about the sponsors passport to be given at the visa center appointment, my mother in law took my EU ID card and handed this in with the application form. however, two weeks later Liverpool office has sent her two separate emails at same day and time, one email stating application is not straightforward and other asking her to send the EU nationals passport/ID. I sent my passport to them from here as I am already in the UK, but not sure why they have asked for it twice and it has now been over three weeks and no response.

I have sent a similar thread in past but cannot locate it on my account, please help. :|

You just need to wait.
The Home Office has the right to ask for the original document.
