Just sent off for eea visa for my wife. Countdown begins!! Hey Darren, Just curious - when you say that you sent it off, did you set up the biometric appointment for your wife through the website? That is the first stage - then once she does that, you get the receipt for the finger printing and you...

Hi there, Another question can my wife come on a vistor visa then can she whilst in Uk apply for a eea2 visa. Thank you Personally I have no idea about this - I remember reading a few months ago that you can't switch between certain visas while you are in the UK - but the EEA route isn't technicall...

Does my wife need a tb test for an eea family visa she from Cambodia This is a useful thread about the EEA Family Permit and Residence Card - gives guidance and answers certain questions: http://www.immigrationboards.com/eea-route-applications/eea-faqs-common-questions-read-before-posting-t114867.h...

Once last question I hope I'm confused when it says "Are your correspondence address different from contact already provided" It just means do you want your documents sent to a different address than the one you gave in the question before. For me I answered "NO" - but again tha...

Would I say she is being sponsor by me also, or no because freedom of movement I never mentioned the word sponsor - in my cover letter I just kept banging the drum about her being eligible for the family permit through marriage. My income, savings etc does not legally matter when it comes to this. ...

As we didn't expect it to come so quickly so I applied and got a uk vistor visa for my wife to visit next week. Question 1.can she still come on vistor visa and change to ...

Sorry for bumping the thread up again - was just hoping someone could offer some advice - especially around the CSI / self-sufficient aspect of things.

Cheers!

Hi everyone - I was hoping that some of you could help point me in the right direction regarding my current/upcoming situation: Background - I am an Irish Citizen, that has previously lived in the UK - so I already have a National Insurance Number, bank account, drivers license, proof of address in ...

I have friends and grandparents here, we stayed with my friends for a few days but it wasn't an option for longer. Maybe a bit naive in thinking things would fall into place a bit more quickly! I have a job starting the 16th of this month, hubby has a job offer but now they are waiting for the lett...

Is Is it correct if my wife comes on uk vistor visa then I get my rc thus being single nationality (Irish) I can change to family whilst she is in the uk. We also have two kids. Please let me know. Hey Darren, I do not think this is correct. When you say visitor visa, do you mean the EEA Family Per...

Wow Lisa! it definitely sounds like you have had an interesting time since getting there. I thought you were staying with family (or friends maybe?) for the first little while, to help you get settled? It is never easy moving country - especially if you don't have a support network there as a base t...

Thanks bannoi !

Suppose my fears are 2 fold - (1) sad to be leaving the wifes family here in the USA (2) a fear on my part that she won't like/will struggle to settle back in NI

Bottom line though, it is now or never!

Hey everyone! I am not sure if you are all still getting alerts for this thread/or checking it - but I just wanted to let everyone know that my wife's EEA Family Permit came yesterday in the post! It took a grand total of 2 weeks here in the USA. The documents had to be sent to New York and then pos...

Time to start Susing out what all we need for the family permit application! Least we are in the same boat now and can help each other out Absolutely magicmus! I ...

Wow magicmus!!!! I had spoken to my solicitor a few days ago (to tell him that I got my RN back) - and he said that some of his clients had been getting their RN back after 6 weeks!!!! But I thought he had made a typo! That's unbelievable! I assume that means that you are going to cancel your UK spo...

Heya, Well what I was told, for question 1 - you have 6 months to apply for the long term residence card, if you have a job or can prove self sufficient then that is great you don't have to much of a time crunch. I need to find a job and work for 3 months then apply (what the company I am using has...

Thank you Lisa !!! Going to look into the family permit later today. Hoping someone can answer me these 2 questions though ... (1) - I know that I have to give an intended date of travel to the UK. This is the date that my family permit will be valid from. I do not have an exact date yet - but I jus...
