Hey guys,
I already have good idea about the required documents for an EEA Family Permit.i am tunisian and my wife is lithuanian who have been living and working in UK for 4 years and 11 months,she is living with me in Tunisia for 8 months and she got her residence card(Valid to 2014).in 5 march my wife will back to Uk in order to get back her previous job position and to rent a proprety in order that we both can live there later. now while i am checking in th UKBA site for some other details i found this information :
*What regulation governs the issue of EEA
family permits?:
1-Regulation 12 of the Immigration (EEA)
Regulations 2006 is the basis for issuing
EEA family permits. Successful applicants
must meet all requirements for a family
permit.
2-A non EEA national travelling independently
and not joining an EEA national in the UK
must meet the normal entry clearance
requirements under the Immigration Rules.
So in my case i will not travel with my wife,she will go first and then i join her later.so according to the point 2,am i required to provide financial proofs like bank statement and payslip( is it a must?) does that mean they will process my eea family permit as a normal spouse visa?
Actionly i am thinking to not enclose her bank statements because she was living with me here in Tunisia for 8 months and during that time she don t have good transaction in her account(i mean there is no money in) so i worry that they will consider that she is not able to sponsor me financially .. and regard the payslips she will be working for few weeks and then i will apply and they are requiring payslips of the previous 6 months...
These are the documents i am ready to enclose with my application :
* the online application(printed)
*marriage certeficate : Translated and orginal copies
*a copy of her passport certefied by a solicitor from UK
*a copy of her residence card in Tunisia(translated to english)(i wonder if i need to submit the orginal card as well)
*her rent contract
*her recent work contract(a copy of her previous work contract if she find it)
*her work permit copy(showing that she start working in uk since 2007)
*a covering letter will be written from my wife(handwriting)
*pictures( before our marriage ,during the marriage and after)
*my passport
*a passport sized photograph of me
How about that dear sir/madam, do you think this will be sufficient ?
i am looking forward for a quick help.
Best regards
