Family menber who are not themselves EEA nationls .

Such persons may engage in employment without a work permit while their application of a Residence Card or Permanent Residence Card is under consideration. The Border and Immigration Agency anticipates that in the majority of cases this acknowledgment will be sufficient to satisfy a prospective employer regarding a person entitlement to seek employment in the United Kingdom, while the application is being considered.

I'll repeat again. If you were not married to the EEA citizen, you were NOT a family member of the EEA citizen until the date of your Residence Card. So stop quoting paragraphs about family members. They are not applicable to your case.

Is your marriage recognised in the UK?

Prior to the marriage did you make an application as an Extended family member or not.

After reading this I am also worried now since my case is similar but I think they made mistake by refusing application

I was on asylum and then got married with eea national (proxy marriage) on January 2008 and applied for residance card in March 2008
May 2009 Applied for certificate for approval (to register marriage here in uk) which given in in June 2009 and sent original uk marriage certificate to home office and they issued residance card in June 2009
Then applied for permanent residance card not after completing the date of 5 year from issuing residance card but after applying

On March 2013 Applied for permanent residance card which is approved on June 2013

Now after reading this case when I applied for residance card in 2008 I given permission to work and after getting national insurance I was working from June 2008 but my residance issued in 2009

So can they still say I was working illegally ?

If yes then why they given permission to work?

Please either continue in one of your existing topics if you have one or start your own topic. It is unfair to the OP to tag your questions here and it creates Confusion when members respond.

At one point you mentioned you married in 2007 and applied for residance card then you said you married in 2008 this does it make sense

Did you marry in UK?

Now a Court of Appeal judgment on this very point. Time spent as extended family member without permit doesn’t count toward permanent residence.
he missed five years’ continuous residence by the agonisingly small margin of five days....
Lord Justice Longmore highlighted that prior to the appellant’s marriage he was unlawfully present in the UK and therefore was no automatic presumption of status could be assumed.

My application for naturalization was refused 05/2018.
Apply for reconsideration 07/2018.
Received a letter from migration management support team 11/2018.


I can confirm that your reconsideration application have been received

All reconsideration applications are taken in date order but we are unable to give you a time frame on the application being completed. We will contact you when a decision will be reached.

Received approval 12/2018

My experience in this process ,when you received the letter that your case will be reopened their is an indication that your case have a chance to be successful by 70%
