They are not obliged to give you any information until after 6 months and this they seem to stick to. At least with your email confirmation you should have a case number, which is more than seems most receive recently, so I guess you could get lucky and someone can assist you, though they do seem unwilling to do so. Always worth a go right?yvonnew wrote:Hi everyone,
Very sorry to butt in, but I'm getting a bit nervous about my application. I'm an EU citizen and here is my timeline:
Application sent: 10/3/2016
Money taken: 14/3/2016
Confirmation e-mail received: 06/4/2016
And I've heard nothing since, so I am a bit worried that most people here have gotten theirs back in 3 months...
Has anyone else experienced longer wait? If I get in touch with the home office, are they allowed to give me any information on my case, or do I have to wait here in agony until the 6th month mark? Thank you for your help!

Good afternoon everyone,
Sooooo.... My application was refused, on the basis that I didn't have comprehensive health insurance and couldn't prove that I was self sufficient as a student.
Completely my fault, because I didn't even realise these were requirements.
I am actually FUMING that they need comprehensive sickness insurance, tho, it's something most EU migrants wouldn't have even thought about, NHS being a free service for all European Citizens, I certainly didn't!
And god knows how I am going to prove to them that I have been self sufficient as a 14 year old student.
It just so happens that I do have European Health Card my parents got me when we went travelling back when I was 15, so I am submitting an appeal.
However, the years they decided to graciously accept that I was a student, I was a minor under 21. I was 14-19 years old. Is comprehensive insurance really necessary in that case?
I'm submitting my parents tax returns and passport copies and neutralisation papers as evidence that they have supported me during that time.
Does anyone know if that will be enough? That's what I've been told on the phone, but I've stopped trusting what they tell me...
Does anyone know if it's ok to submit new evidence in an appeal?
Super sad and anxious.
A Union citizen, once a BC, can't sponsor family members so you need to choose a 5 year period ending before 2014.yvonnew wrote:Thank you for the separate topic, and sorry for rambling on too much!
Yes my parent is an A8 national, however she has always been self-employed. There was no gaps in employment.
Also, just co clarify, I was under 21 between 2006 till 2012, I am now nearly 25, I'm not sure if that has any implications. The refusal letter states I have provided enough evidence that I was a student between 2006 and 2012.
To complicate this further, my parent was classed as EEA national at the time, but has obtained Citizenship in 2014.
Yes, correct.yvonnew wrote:Thank you so much for your help!
Yes, my parents situation is rather clear, she has all of her tax returns, mortgage, etc, that's good news at least!
So, she can sponsor me for any period prior to her obtaining British Citizenship is that correct?
And my application for 2006-2011 will count retrospectively as an application for a minor?
That's fantastic.
Do you think an appeal will stand a chance, or will they refuse it since all of this is technically new information?
I did fill out the part of the form, which asked about my immediate family in the UK, and the case worker was aware that in the period he decided to consider I was a minor, but I'm not sure if that would be pushing my luck...
You don't have to prove anything about your education except in that it helps prove residence.yvonnew wrote:That's wonderful!
My sponsors evidence is even more solid than a rock, so that's one worry over.
My education evidence was slightly sketchier as it was a mixture of provisional and final education certificates, but it seems it has passed the test...
I was hoping to appeal to avoid having to send off my passport, yet again, as I will be travelling in September. (I don't need to supply old evidence again, unless it relates directly to why I am appealing their decision, right...?) Again, I was told on the phone appeal should be resolved within 6 months, but who knows. I'll gather everything together and weigh up my options...
Thank you so much for your help, I've had a scan through the guidelines and it helped a lot, I will study them this week before I decide to do anything...
