EEA family permit for my mother

Post by sebyle » Tue Jun 25, 2013 7:34 pm

Hi Can you please help I am very confused.
I woul like to know if my mother is entitled to an EEA family permit.
I am French and British I don't work anymore my husband does. My mother lives in France she is Moroccan with a French residence card. She has been coming to England for holidays for the past 10 years. Last time she had a 5 year visit visa which expired. We would like to save some money and apply for her to get the EEA family permit. she would only come here on holiday. She is retired.

I have split your post from where it was. It should also be in the EEA family permit section, I will move it there.

In general, dependent parents of an EU citizen can obtain a family permit if the EU citizen exercises treaty rights. However, it usually excludes British citizens.

So they might refuse, what about if I send only my french passport and what do you mean when you say treaty rights?
thanks

They might. Also deliberately concealing information might be considered to be an offence.

Treaty rights - worker, student, self-sufficient person.
