Zambrano Settled Status EU settlement scheme Paper Application Form - NEW

[Lagosbos]

Just to be explicit for those who might need me to. Applications under Appendix EU which includes Zambrano can no longer vary an application made under another of or outside the Immigration rules. So those who have pending Appendix FM application should expect a decision separately from their EUSS (Zambrano) application. On the bright side, it appears HO has finally come into terms with the fact that both Applications under EEA Reg (Now Appendix EU) can co-exist with other application made under other Immigration rules concurrently. So having a leave under Appendix FM shouldn't deter anyone from having a status under Appendix EU.

[Lagosbos]

“EU10. (1) An application made under this Appendix will be rejected as invalid where it does not meet the requirements in paragraph EU9.
(2) Paragraph 34BB of these Rules does not apply to applications made under this Appendix. Where a further valid application is made under this Appendix before a previous such application has been decided, the further application will be treated as an application to vary the previous application and only the latest application will be considered.

(3) Where a valid application is made under this Appendix before a previous valid application made under another part of or outside the Immigration Rules has been decided (or where a valid application is made under another part of or outside the Immigration Rules, or varied by a further such application, before a previous valid application made under this Appendix has been decided), both applications will be considered.
(4) Where both applications considered in accordance with sub-paragraph (3) above fall to be granted, the Secretary of State will inform the applicant that they satisfy the relevant criteria in respect of both applications and ask them to confirm which application they want to be decided and which they want to be treated as withdrawn. If the applicant does not so confirm within 14 days, the latest application will be decided and the other treated as withdrawn.”.

Lagos Bos what is a valid application? Does it mean only those with COA and what about the six weeks for applications after reconsideration of appendix EU

The reconsideration of Appendix EU applicable to Zambrano is not due till the 25th of April.

I think she did it right. She did receive acknowledgment email but no respond from Home Office at all.

HO has started again. What do they mean by this, taking into consideration the fact that some people find out about their decisions without even getting any letter or email from HO.

Will HO ever give up, for crying out loud?.

I also applied on 30th June 2021 through the post and all that I have received is an application acknowledgement letter. They returned my passport two weeks ago, without a decision letter, COA or biometric appointment letter. I haven't received any other emails or letters from them either. I called the EU resolution centre on Friday for an update and they just confirmed that my application is still being processed and that a Caseworker will be in touch if further information is required.

Why don't you email it so you have it on record...things said over the phone with homeoffice can sometimes be argued as non existent

Also it could be that they are using biometrics you already took if you did so recently..the anxiety is not good for mental health

You're very correct! Let's pray that they will have a provision for people whose application was decided without getting the email to choose which they want decided, to be able to return it back to them if not given what they want. May God help us all to get the good decision on the application we want in Jesus name Amen. With God all things are possible, it might take long but at the end of it all ,God never fail when we put our trust in Him.

It says that when you provide wrong details.
Check properly your passport number or your application reference number when entering them

[Blessed child]

Please has anyone who applied from May 2021 for the extention of the 2.5 years on the Family life category received a decision on their application?

It's like decision on the FLR(FP) application is also taking too long to come out. What's holding that one too? It's not like there is any reason why the renewal should be taking so long as circumstance is still the same. May God help HO to find a way to make things easy for themselves.

Hi All,

Just read this article https://freemovement.org.uk/statement-o ... ife-rules/

It seems ppl can now combine time spent under areas of appendix FM and article 8 outside the rules to make up the 10years to settlement. This is good news for some as they will qualify for settlement straight away under the revised private and family life routes.

Certainly, we will have to pay for this application compared to EUSS. I will certainly want to wait and see what changes is made to the Zambrano policy first before exploring this route.

I have the same problem which I stated in my earlier post. I have since contacted the resolution centre and I was told not to bother about a COA or send additional evidence as my status will be confirmed soon. A reasonable conclusion is that the HO have started making decisions on some cases. Also, from April 6, a BRP would no longer be accepted as proof of right to live in the country even if it has a later expiry date - Everything is going digital. I envisage there will be sweeping immigration reform like never seen before come next month.

Hello All

In the Immigration Rules, whichever 10 years lawful residence you have had could be used for indefinite leave to remain.

No matter what the SSHD says, u guys shouldn't be worried.

[mubashir1981]

Both parents have zambranoo pre settle status. New baby born may 2021. Made her pre settle paper application in September got biomatric letter in jan after making complain to home office. Made another complain as application not concluded it over 6 months now. No reply for complain as its over a month now. Spoke to local mp. And eventually going phso. As i did b4. Needs to plan holiday's very frustrating ho.

[KSplendide]

I just received my COA which allow me to work, study, rent a place, access benefits. Even to travel in and out the UK

Congratulations! God is great. I have read somewhere COA for non-EU is not advisable for travel, at the borders they refuse people back in until outcome of application

I think it will be a mistake to travel with COA. It will be easy to leave the country but I guess coming back might be a problem. One should seek immigration/legal advice before leaving the country with COA. God forbid that while the person was away and the application gets refused ,.The person will be stuck outside until they win the appeal who knows how long that will take and it might break the period of continous lawful residence in the UK which might come handy along the line if someone is in the UK.

You were 100% right, blessed child.
I think we all know the HO's tricks especially that the COA may not guarantee travelling freely. But today's story in the guardian confirmed it.
The recipient had travelled to India with his passport & COA only to barred re-entry on the basis that he didnt have a valid residence card.

Same here received the same email and mine didn’t have the bottom but also so many mistakes ( they forgot to delete appropriate and insert ) we shall wait , April is not too far

Yesterday my Partner came back from Back home at Gatwick airport and the Immigration officer told her you have been granted Pre Settled status and you don't need to apply for an extension which is due in September 2022.

AND

Today My Partner Received the same email as above.

Is this a Joke ?

Oh wow! Congratulations to your partner,
You know I think she really got pre-settle status as the airport officer was saying. The reason I’m saying that it’s because their are able to digitally check one status.
So tell her to go check her status online on to the government website. To do so she will need her passport number or her application reference number and her date of birth.

The email sent today must have been a mistake from HO, we will never comprehend those people working at Home office

Thanks for your feedback.

We checked the online status which shows the CERTIFICATE OF APPLICATION.

Thanks

Maybe the Immigration officer is prophesying! Receive it! Congratulations!

Or maybe it has been approved and recorded on the system but not reflected yet on the status check. I know this must be very hard for you trying to think out if it's true or not. Hopefully it will all end in praise

>>>>>>>>>>JUST DOUBLE CHECKED<<<<<<<<<<

Whenever my partner traveled from the UK when she came back to Airport IMMIGRATION Officer always Stamped on her passport Due to BRP 10 Years Parent Route. But this time they didn't stamp on her passport as an entry in the UK and just returned the passport with these words, You been granted EU Pre Stalled Status don't need to apply for an extension.

Sounds Good......
