Re: Renouncing British Citizenship to use EEA FP route

Hey folks! Quick question - I used the following number (03001232253) to contact the Home Office border control about changing my address for the RN form. Got through to a person and after checking with his supervisor, I was told that in order to change my mailing address - that I had to contact my...

Re: Renouncing British Citizenship to use EEA FP route

Hi sp84, yeh im up n down too. Hopefully ur rn will come through any day now. Im hoping maybe less ppl renuncing now with regerendum looming so perhaps mine will come sooner. Silly of me really as because of referendum they will most likely hold out for longer! That's a fair point & something I...

Thanks for this info. I sent my card details on the payment sheet. Just need to keep an eye on my account for it coming out then.

Re: Renouncing British Citizenship to use EEA FP route

Yes that is correct I got this clarified with my solicitor before I sent my rn as didn't want to shoot myself in the foot. Cheers! Yeah through all of this I thought - wouldn't it be ironic if I renounced and then the scales were tipped the other way - and it was more favourable to be a British cit...

Re: Renouncing British Citizenship to use EEA FP route

Haha thank you magicmus, that made me smile! As you know one of my biggest fears at the minute is the transitional rules, but until they are announced, I suppose I have to just carry on with what I am doing! One positive that I keep telling myself is that being Irish and living in the UK - is pract...

Re: Renouncing British Citizenship to use EEA FP route

Morning magicmus (well it is here!) Contact the solicitor just to re-confirm, but that was at least my understanding! Even with no surname I am sure you have lots of other evidence - photos, correspondence, flight details, marriage cert etc Sadly, I think for all of us, stress is going to be an iss...

Magicmus - I am unable to see PMs sadly! Can you repost here? i`d imagine it was related anyway? On the topic surely it is madness for people to be doing this until the EU referendum is sorted?

Re: Renouncing British Citizenship to use EEA FP route

Yea I totally feel the same! Every time I see a see a news article I cringe. I would love to ask David Cameron the question that - if his child happened to fall in love with a non-EU citizen & wasn't making enough money to sponsor them, how he would feel. Or if his own wife was a non-EU citizen...

Yes I can understand the confusion say you got your fp on 20th June came to the uk would you then not be able to apply for residency card and be told to leave after 6 months?

Re: Renouncing British Citizenship to use EEA FP route

Yea at the minute there has not been any timescales discussed. If the vote is to stay in - all we know is that the changes will come into effect "once the UK informs the EU Commission of its desire to remain in the EU". Does this mean the very next day (so the 24th/25th)? Does it mean tha...
