Post by mrmuez » Tue Nov 06, 2012 2:38 pm

Hi Guyz , I have a pretty complacated question and need reply really quick , so my question is my father has a resident card because of my brothers wife who is a member of european union ...

Your question is not complicated at all, and the situation does not require any urgent action also.

Your father does not need to do anything at all, the RC on a separate A4 (Immigration Status Document) is still valid.

If he really wants his RC in his passport, he needs to make a fresh application (with form EEA2) and submit the same evidence as the first time. Obviously, as the previous application was successful, there is no reason to expect a different outcome this time, but it can still take the full six months to be completed.

In short, why embark on a stressful experience which is not necessary?

He can travel to Pakistan. There is no problem at all regardless immigration authorities in Pakistan who seem to be pathetic and can be unaware of RC on paper. Otherwise there will be no problem for him at UK airports.
