Thanks @chaoclive

I went the easy route and instead of calling it "certificate" or "card" on my cover letter, I referred to my application using the form's name "EEA(FM)" can't go wrong with that one (or so I hope)

My EEA1 registration certificate is on a small blue card and my civil partner's EEA2 residence card is a normal vignette not affixed to a blue card. My spouse (Croatia/EEA) has one of those blue paper wallets that folds three ways and in one of the pages there is a vignette. And that vignette reads...

That's what I thought too, until I read the the vignette on my passport where it clearly says

Hello all

Could anyone help me understand the difference between "registration certificate" and "residence card"?

Moreover, both routes leads to settlement (PR/ILR) after 5 years as long as the relevant requirements have been fulfilled. Thank you. Honestly I did su...

Can I add my 3 years under "Tier 2" and the 2 years EEA Residence Card (EEA-family member) to in order to get the 5 years required for PR? History Oct/2007 - Dez/2009 = (2years and 2months) Tier 4 as main applicant Aug/2010 - Aug/2013 = (3years) Tier 2 as main applicant. Croatian spouse (b...

Thank you for clearing that up. I still have a hill to climb with the red-tape trying to re-issue the tip-ex document

Thanks for your reply. Do you know if that's quoted in any of the HO guidelines?

Hi all Quick question: How long after the decree absolute is issued should the applicant submit their "Retained rights of residence"? Background story: I have recently divorced from EEA spouse, everything went smoothly but due to red-tape (in Croatia) despite the divorce been granted in mi...
