hi, she was interviewed for about 3hrs while her husband was questioned for about an 1. yes they made them sign a letter before the interview that if the answers don't match her husband will be deported. the answers matched and they let them go, at the end of the interview the immigration officer sa...

hi, don't worry too much, my aunt had her interview today, they can't detain you after the interview. they will obviously ask you a lot of silly questions to try and ruffle ur feathers, just make sure your answers tally with your wifes. make sure you remember key dates such as when u first met, when...

As long as you have a bank account showing ur irish address that should be fine. your payslip will be proof that you were getting paid. when u fill in the eea2, there is space for additional info. you can give an explaination as to why theres no evidence of salary going into ur account. be honest an...

hi alpha, I completely understand where you are coming from but it is a bit unrealistic to say you lived in a country for 9 months without using a bank. how else will proof centre of life was moved. I agree that you could have been paid by cheque, but again that raises a lot of question because majo...

Alpha you are better of providing bank statement, it helps with centre of life cos u had a job in the eu country u moved to, the chances are your salary was paid into the acount. When u go thru the explanatory note of the form it states examples of document required. So u do need the ur bank stateme...

Your question is not very clear alpha, are you asking if you need bank statement for eea2 application?

I don't think just 3 months worth of work will be sufficient, the U.K. Govt is getting really strict now.

I had to live in Dublin for a year to give my husbands application a better chance.
Y not wait abit longer in Ireland just to give ur self a better chance at suceeding when you come by home.

Nope as correctly mentioned non required

NOPE NOTHING YET,
JUST BE PATIENT, ITS COMING UP TO XMAS

hi, we just came back from dublin as well a couple of months ago. the first thing you have to do is gather all ur documents together, mostly the same doc u used when u applied for family permit to come bk to the uk( assuming you got one) proof of employement in ireland - give as much payslips as u c...

hi Sandy, as zubby correctly said, biometric letter doesnt confer right to work, you have to wait to receiev ur COA and then u will be able work as long as it permits cos have heard of cases where people have been issued with COA WITHOUT WORK. cant really understand that. but as soon as my husband r...

if shes applying for a join EU spouse visa just send her a copy of ur passport by email and she can print it out and take it to the embassy with the rest of the doc

hey, just take it to a law firm and tell them you want to certify ur document. they will make a copy, a solicitor will stamp and sign the document to prove that they saw the original. prices vary depending on law firm but it cost btw £5 to £10 pounds max. you will send the certified copy to the home...

hey Sandy,
just tot to keep u updated, my husband got his biometric letter today so urs should be on the way too.

hi,
i havent contacted them, to be honest i dont think it will yeild anything but let me know what they say when u call them. we expected the biometric letter after 2 weeks but hoepfully it will come soon

Hi,
Same as my husband, we applied for eea2 on the 11th. I guess coming up to Xmas they are super busy we just have to be patient.

If we get anything will let u know.

You can send certified copy, my husband got his family permit with a certified copy of my passport.

It shouldn't be an issue

hi, since you are using ss route, u don't need proof of address for UK, you obviously need to fill in an address where correspondence can be sent. if you got the family permit before moving back, that makes it even better, send them the same doc u used for the family permit such as proof of British ...

Hey Robster,
You don't need to have a job. We have sent my husbands eea2 application also, can I ask how much did biometric cost and how long did it take for your wife go recieve the letter for biometric

Thanks

Thanks for the clarification Nina

Am not being funny but good luck with getting NI on family permit. No employer is going to risk getting 10k fine for employing a person without validating their documents. The conservatives have made things so hard. A lot of big employers don't even accept COA, they are too lazy to check with HO so ...

She has the same right as you but proving those rights will be difficult. No one will employ her without a valid work visa. My husband has the family permit too but he can't work. Family permit doesn't confer a right to work. You have to wait for the COA then she can work. You should recieve that sh...

Hey alpha,
They will get back to you before the 19th of Nov. my husbands response came 2 weeks late but was still before the deadline.

They contacted my employer and issued my husbands letter on the same day. Don't worry
