Consultation on the 2013 EU Citizenship Report "EU citizens - Your rights, your future"

EU commission latest rights information web site
[url=http://ec.europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/travel/entry-exit/non-eu-family/index_en.htm?profile=0]New rights website[/url] wrote: Applying for a visa

:
The documents that your non-EU family member has to submit to apply for a visa may vary from country to country. Before travelling to another country, contact the consulate or embassy of that country to find out which are the documents that your non-EU family members will have to submit with their visa application.
Old rights website wrote: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Consular officers issuing the visas may not:

* ask you to produce any documents other than a valid passport and documents attesting to your family link with a Union citizen and proof of dependence, where applicable, such as to furnish proof of means to support yourself, travel tickets, employment certificate, pay slips, bank statements, proof of accommodation, means of subsistence, medical certificate …
* ask you how much money you have to spend;
* ask you questions regarding the purpose and duration of your trip.

Of course not. Besides what acme4242 posted I also mentioned the mess with visa-free travel for non-EU family members and the mess with PR (the fact that it is not clear if PR residence cards are good to travel within the EU and that there are two very similar permanent statuses defined in directives 2003/109 and 2004/38).
