EEA4 fast processing times or wishful thinking

[EUsmileWEallsmile]

Hi Guys,

Is there a thread that deals with Citizenship applications after EEA4?

Thanks

Yes, see British citizenship section of forum.

Anybody else here sent their application in October? I sent mine on the 16/10/12...

This waiting is killing me.

What are the chances of getting an application rejected/declined after over 4 months of request.


I think I'm really worried any getting my application rejected for some reason.


Thanks

[Plum70]

I'm an October applicant as well.

Why would you think your application might be refused?

[AranUk]

Thanks Plum..

I couldn't send all p60s so we sent pay slips 6/7 covering each year. Also I sent around 2-4 prove of address ( each year) covering the last 5 year ( both names on it).

As we moved around London a lot sometimes I think I didn't send enough docs.

All other docs fine.. Passport, marriage certificate.

Is nearly reaching the 5 month mark now and I hear here on this website that some ppl got their PR within few months only. I don't understand why others still waiting.


Wishing your receive yours soon Plum.

6/7 payslips per year for 5 years should be fine. I do not think that this will warrant a refusal outright, worst case the UKBA may ask for more supporting evidence if being fussy.

Did you send joint tenancy agreements for however long you lived in each place around London?

Hi just wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to apply for EEA3 for my wife and EEA4 for myself in the same time? Thanks

We didn't have tenancy agreements however we sent joint utility bills and bank statements on both names too. I didn't send many tho.

Hope don't decide being fussy with us. I didn't sent quite a lot of docs overall I am trying to think that they are just too busy dealing with lots of other applications.

I sent a pre-paid envelope and keep checking the post office website every single day ))

Fingers crossed. Thank Plum

Yes. It is stated on ukba website.

That might make the wait even more arduous. Better to mindfully forget and spring to action nearer to the 6 month deadline.

Hi guys, just to update you, after a long wait, Rob Whiteman has considered my case and issued me a PR. I hope you all will soon receive your PR and this route will end.

Thanks mate, you can read all my posts and I had a strange story,, well it wasnt strange but nobody was agree with me but I was right and I won
Here is all information:
I lived with my EEA spouse from January 2007 and got married on November 2008 got my RC on 2009 which ends 2014.
I applied for PR on February 2012( 5 yrs of relationship with my EEA meeting all the requirement as treaty rights and residance) regardless 5 yrs marriage or RC. I got refused on August 2012 with appeal, appeal was withdrew by homoffice and asking documents before marriage!! I got PR this week dated 05/03/2013
Now I'm not waiting for 1 year to go over PR, I will now apply for Naturalization based on 6 yrs durable relationship(January 2007-2013)
If you have the same story, don't hesitate and read UKBA website. Good luck mate.

Did your wife exercise treaty right and resident in UK for last 5 years and ext? then you should be fine as you are married for 5 years already but I wasn't even married for 5 years, good luck and plz PM me what happened,, update

[nidaulhaque]

Yes she already issued eea3 within 3 weeks!! So no problem with exercising treaty rights, just the marriage problem as uk does not accept proxy marriage but I was living together, hope they will not refuse

I made an eea4 application on 6th march and requested our passports back on 9th and they only returned my non eea passport on 15th and send many emails to them to request my eea passport and received today 25th with the letter dated 19th. on the first letter it says data proc tm liverpool 1 and now on the letter it says caseworker name with NWEURO8 so anyone had received they pr from this department, just wondering they quick on slow issuing pr

[dsab85]

Ours is dealt with by NWEURO8, and one month overdue (i.e. seven months old).

I just sent a formal complaint to the Customer Complains Department, Rob Whiteman, and put my local MP on cc. Lets see if I can get some traction on it now.
