If you use Nationality checking service then you can keep your original documents as they will take photo copies. If you send your documents yourself through royal mail then it night take some time to get ur passport. So highly recommended use NCS

If you completed biometric scans then you should get COA. Try sending emails to this adress
NWEUROCOARequests@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk..

you can also request passport online again and also write to case worker unit.

So your wife can put a cover letter that should be ok. But I also come across that if you don't provide eea pa...

Well look like caseworker wasn't in good mood otherwise it shouldn't be a reason to refuse. You can submit further documents and request for reconsideration. I am sure you will get you PR soon then

What documents you have submitted with your application, how long it took them to decide. You can submit your application again with more documents showing your residence here

to join family probably simply submit marriage certificate, activities ur wife working in UK pay slips etc. Too many documents can cause hassle so stick with the check list on the form and rest provide when they ask for it on later stage

I think u have to use now new version of the form which is valid from 30.01.2015. This is bit lengthy but may be not all section relevant to u

Ok, Thanks for your reply. Did you get anything through an email, Have you got your PR or still waiting?
