Re: Sheffield Visa Section - EEA FAMILY PERMIT

Oh, it shouldn't be long now!

my husbands visa had the date of issue as the 6th of June and he collected his passport on the 14th.

It should only be a matter of days now!

Good luck!

Re: EEA FAMILY PERMIT DELAY - NOT STRAIGHT FORWARD

hi, yes he picked up his passport on the 14th with the visa dated the 6th, so it took just over a week to get to him. I called Sheffield, you can get the number from the link below.
