Since the new regulations appear to contradict the Metock judgement then what happens? Is the Metock judgement simply reversed? Is that easy to achieve? In that instance (excuse my ignorance) If hypothetically ECJ Metock is reversed where could it leave those who are already enroute to PR prior to t...
Hi Forum, I am aware that at present uncertainty is the only certainty we have in relation to the referendum and in addition the UK EU deal. Considering that when the whole 'centre of life' requirement was added to Surinder Singh route there were transitional arrangements added, would there likely b...
Appeal form sent today by special delivery. Fingers crossed. Once all additional evidence is ready will reapply. -Should appeal be withdrawn at any stage of reapplication or only if and when RC is issued to confirm ROR? -Is Evidence of treaty rights and residence in host member state supposed to be ...
Thank you both. So what essentially are the grounds of appeal? To challenge the reason for refusal that British citizen had not resided in UK up until divorce? (Even though insufficient documentary evidence was submitted to demonstrate such?! ) Is it relevant that refusal was to issue PR when PR was...
Good evening forum. So latest update is that applicant had a consultation at IAS. Thought that since they are kind of non profit organisation they may be best to see. From what was allegedly advised I kind of feel that the £150 consultation fee could have been used to get better quality advice but ...
My sincere apologies if I seem to enquire endlessly but I would just like to clarify a point. - If the evidence that was provided of 'living in the UK' for one year during the marriage' and 'returning BC having resided in the UK up until point of divorce' was insufficient then would it be appropriat...
Thank you all for your support. Am looking for local solicitors now though understand that I cannot ask anyone for recommendations on here. I really don't feel competent enough to complete appeal form myself so will try to get it done within the next 2 days or so by a professional. Are there any cen...
Thank you lurli for you kind offer of assistance in completion of the appeal form although for some reason I don't have the ability to send messages on this site. Applicant is going to look into getting an appointment with a solicitor for guidance although that can in my experience be a bit of a min...
Ok. So original evidence of marriage certificate and decree absolute demonstrated that marriage lasted for almost 7 and a half years Original payslips and bank statements spanning March 2015 to time of application demonstrated that applicant is employed full time and thereby deemed to be exercising ...
Many thanks to all who have replied. -Application was never for PR to begin with since RC under Singh issued 04/09/2012 and decree absolute issued 09/09/2015 so it was stated clearly to HO that application was for ROR. -Applicant has been in full time employment throughout entire divorce proceedings...
Thank you for your reply nwaotu. Just to clarify that I am a British Citizen who exercised treaty rights for 3 months back in 2011 in The Netherlands so would not need to show any treaty rights/economical activity carried out by myself in the UK since returning due to the Eind judgement. If my Ex sp...
Please could a moderator if available kindly clarify for me whether if an appeal is lodged and lost would that then remove the right to reapply for retained right of residency?
To be honest I am finding wording of Home office correspondence incomprehensible. Maybe it's because I've been in an almost constant state of anxiety and panic attack since the arrival of the refusal or else I'm just unable to comprehend very much at all. :) For instance, it states right to an in co...
Dear Rosebead, I have since assisted my ex spouse in applying for retained rights of residency and it has been refused. I have lost my email account on my old profile for this site. My thread is below and I would sincerely appreciate your advise if you are willing to reply of course. Many thanks in ...
Thank you for your reply. With regards to appealing is there any point of doing so if I was in the wrong by submitting insufficient evidence as well as photocopies of some documentation? I looked over PR guidance as you suggested and TV license letters are listed as well as utility bills. -The marri...
Many thanks Noajthan for your reply. Yes, The RC issued under SS was submitted with the application and with hindsight I was perhaps mistaken in doing so, though I was under the impression that it was essential that it be submitted. The content of the letter is below but may I ask how problematic th...
I urgently need some assistance in what next steps to take. Refusal of ROR was received on Friday 13th May and I (sponsor) have been in a constant state of anxiety and panic attack since and so have yet to inform the applicant. I am a British citizen and the Non-Eea national (Egyptian) is my ex husb...
