Hi Everybody!
I am a non EU married to a German, I already have my residence card.
the HO refused my mum's EAA2 because my wife is getting JSA, she has worked before for more than 6 months and then she was a jobseeker, but I failed to inform them about it, they obviously find out about it when looking at her bank statements, silly of me! I admit that
Anyway from the bottom line!
They have refused EAA2 because we have failed to provide evidence that our EEA family member is a qualified person.
Thank god my wife she has just been offered a new job and she will start on the 29th of March 2010.
She has got a letter of offer for employment and a contract.
Would you please guide me how shall I appeal provinding what documents?
What chances we have?
Deadline 31/03/2010
Thanks very much!!!

Why appeal? Just apply anew with the new evidence.

No need to appeal. Send fresh EEA2 application (along with valid passports + passport photos) and evidence of your wife's new employment - offer letter and contract.

I will suggest the op go ahead with her appeal, because the home office can come up with another reason for refusal in a fresh application and may probably take more than 6months. But the appeal will be base on the reason for refusal.

The HO may sometimes have a 'strange' interpretation of EU law but they do not just 'come up with something'. HO didn't believe that the German national was a qualified person (which would also affect the status of the OP, by the way). To be a jobseeker one must have the joblessness registered and must also actively search for work. One can be a jobseeker for at least six months. In the appeal the OP must show that that was indeed true. The OP will also have to show that the mother is truly a dependant. And what makes you think that the appeal would be quicker than a new application? If the appeal would be one though, this may be beneficial when applying for PR.

Thank you guys fir the convencing answer!
No need to appeal that' clear!
Any deadline to send a new EEA2 ( deadline 4 the appeal 31/03/2010 ) ?
They have confiscated her passport, and they do have her fotos, they already have copies of the 1st eaa2 shall I submit again the supporting documents with the new eea2?
Does it matter if my wife,s job is paying less than 400£ a month because its a training job with the NHS ?
Thank u guys I love u:)

I believe there's no deadline for re-application
Attach a COVERING LETTER with the i1st application's reference number highlighted and indicating that the passport and the other documents if any are with them(HO).
I don't think the £400 is going to be a problem. There's a Case Law(case study) to that effect. Will digg it for you.
Good Luck
