its been long time why home office took that much time you should recive your pr max within 6 month but i think you apply to early as you say im married in 2008 ?

HO REP at court in front of me and JUDGE said, PR is based on 5 yrs relationship(been living together and exercising treaty right) regardless when you married or never married at all.

Sarwar have you ever traveled with your first residence card? if yes how was it with your own national passport or home office travel document?

sarwar74 · Post by **sarwar74** » Sun Oct 07, 2012 4:26 pm

yes i did travel alot with my national passport and i never have any problem to go out uk and come back and im always travel a lone.

So is it possible to obtain a HOME OFFICE TRAVEL DOCUMENT with an EEA family member PERMANENT RESIDENCE CARD? cause I have already applied for it with my LIMITED EEA RESIDENCE CARD but they refused my application and I lost £240.
I DO NOT HAVE MY OWN COUNTRIES NATIONAL PASSPORT AND I CAN NOT GET IT EVER DUE TO A POLITICAL ISSUES

Thanks

No you are wrong.
She said as long as I can provide evidence before marriage, I should be fine.

Thanks mate, anyway I never trust HO, so I can't rely on what she said, I'll wait and see. My lawyer said I should wait for HO to ask me to send documents then I should send, she says normally after 2 weeks you will get a letter from court about the out come from court.
I'm not sure to wait or just send my document to HO, I was given the address to send to by the HO REP.

Additionally to seeing your MP
- send the letter as they suggested
- email them on the passport returns mail address (listed elsewhere in this thread)
- open a case with Solvit
- keep at them by calling regularly (who knows, you may get someone more helpful on the line)

So when you ring them,,what is their response? what they hold it or take too long?
Do they want some more information? do they ask you for something else?
You should really make a phone calls and complains everyday bro.
Good luck.
