Hi guys, just wanted to share my timeline for PR: Application received by HO: 12/05 PR received: 31/07 So, it took HO about 2.5 month to process it. I'm an EU national with 5+ years residency in the UK. First two month since my arrival I spent on looking for work (without registering with JobCentreP...

Yes, you should mention it and give as many details as you can. As to the bank account, you will be able to open it with FP, but if you apply for RC straight away they won't open it for you because your visa will be expired. With FP and a proof of address it should be fine, but the latter is the mos...

It will obviously be suspicious, but if it was too suspicious they wouldn't allow a marriage or arrest you before the ceremony. Once you get out of the UK it will be up to them whether to let you in or not and you will need to actually explain why did you leave your spouse and travel to Amsterdam, b...

No, marriage while on visitor visa is absolutely legal. That's how me and my wife got married and there was no problem at all in obtaining Family Permit. I believe that you don't even need to apply for FP as long as you stay in the UK and apply for Residence card straight away. As long as you are le...

Just found an answer to my own question. Apparently unofficial job seeking is very well counted towards 5 years term.

Once you have you RC you can travel together with your husband to the EU without a visa, but you better have with you marriage certificate to prove your relationship.

[quote="Vazexonep"][/quote] @Vazexonep You can provide photos of you together. I had a similar situation, but it was even more complicated to prove our relationship as we never lived together, we were doing long distance relationship. We had no official documents, so we supplied about 60 p...

Hi everyone! I have a similar question if someone can help maybe. In the same situation mentioned above what if someone has the EEA family permit, not a residence card, can they still travel without a Schengen visa? No, they will need a residence card at least. In my experience they should also hav...

I had a 3 months gap between two jobs and received my PR. I provided job application emails and interview invitation letters as evidence to prove that I was a jobseeker. When did you apply for PR? I was informed that if not registered as job seeker than the period of 'unofficial job seeking' doesn'...

Hi, I just applied for EEA2-FM, as a married spouse of EU national. I have some questions about my application; 1- I got my EEA Family Permit in January in abroad. I already enrolled my biometrics on my EEA Family Permit application. Do I need to enroll another one as a part of EEA2-FM application?...

It really was.. Thanks! I'm Lithuanian and my wife is Ukrainian. At the time of application we had been married for only 7 month, but our marriage followed 5 years of long distance relationships. The home visit was quite unexpected, as RC was already overdue at that point. It went quite well, we wer...

Hello guys, Hope you all doing good. I would like to know if anybody had an experience in requesting again the COA that had already been issued because our COA is ripped in to couple of piece so I would like to know how to request and where to! Thank you. Hi kunfayakun! You should send an email to ...

My question is what exactly do you mean by "we requested our passports". How (by email or post) and for what purpose you did that, could you please explain? Hi Asci, You can request your passports straight away using this website: https://eforms.homeoffice.gov.uk/outreach/Return_of_Docume...

Hi punkurz, It's been 6 month for us now which means the deadline is reached, but the card still hasn't arrived. About two weeks ago we emailed HO (at the address provided here http://www.gov.uk/apply-for-a-uk-residence-card/card-hasnt-arrived ) asking if everything is all right, but they replied th...
