Can you not request an international marriage certificate? I thought in the EU that all countries had to supply you with the international if requested? I know I got mine in Italy, it was multilingual....have to say it look like a 5 year old had made it for me though!
Hello read the website....you can apply online Egypt doesn't come into it. You apply for the visa it will be issued free of charge to join your EU spouse. You do not need a tourist visa because that is what that is for tourists which you will not be as your joining your spouse. read this applying on...
I'm alone I understand your advise...as I think you were refused??? No? But your spouse was an Irish citizen right? So you were considered under Irish National law which is much tougher than EU Law, whicdh is what amazin would be considered under. But amazin - It will not be difficult to be issued w...
Yep is was Italy alright, I complained over a year ago to the European commission then stalked them for the past yesr!!! Got a call on Wednesday from immigration here that the Minister had decided to grant my husbands RC....YAY! We are so happy after 3 appeals and over 3 years waiting...thanks every...
Dear all, Just to let you know that mynhusband has been issued with his residence card. After a 3 year battle we finally won (with the help of the European commission and my constant harassment of them)....just want to thank you lot for all your help....and I won't be disappearing from the forum any...
You can wait for confirmation....but I'm nearly positive that you can't apply for a settlement visa when in the UK on a visit and certainly not on a VV.
You have to understand that the Government just want to know that you can support him and I'm sorry to say but if your not working then you are only giving them a reason to refuse you....unfortunately you getting a job and having some savings is the best way to guarantee that he gets a visa. That's ...
I don't think it is really a case of getting the resident card....I know for a fact a friend of mine had to prove she was working in another member state even though her husband had had his RC for years, before they would issue a Family Permit! That is the whole point of EU law you have to had been ...
Really interesting thanks for the link.....but you haven't actually been turned down for a settlement visa for your wife just a VV ( unable to be joined by their third country family members in their Member State of origin because of the application of national immigration rules preventing it ), you...
Obie I think you see everything in black and white....and immigration certainly don't see it that way they see lots of grey....it will be difficult for the OP to get his wife on a flight without a visa (maybe not impossible). And since she is pregnant why risk it...the visa should be issue free and ...
I would say wanderer is right the European section will help you much more....anyway some advice I must agree with Wanderer 6 months...anything less will maybe seem like an extended holiday. It should not take long to issue the Family Permit a friend of mine got it withing 12 days! About your wife j...
I'm kinda on the same page as Rozen! Your savings will really help but you are going to have to go to another country and get married and pay for a spouse visa???? Which is real expensive. You say he is from a really nice African country eh are they all not nice? Do you not want to tell us where he ...
Sorry but totally agree with Rozen they don't care..... The chances of being issued a spouse visa will be slim if you can't provide evidence that you will not become a burden to the state? Can you not get a job??? Not sure if you have one? But that will be a big step forward. Also what are his finan...
Was going to say the same thing don't think having a child gets you out of deportation. Have you read the UKBA website regarding a spouse visa?? I think he is better if he leaves of his own accord, applies gets married in his home country and then apply for a spousal visa? You will probably want to ...
Ok so quick question..... I an Irish citizen would like to know if it's possible to apply for a British passport? Just out of curiousity? My father an Irish citizen born in The Republic of Ireland before 1944, as I understand it is entitled to a British passport....so does that give me his daughter ...
You can actually stay in any country within the EU for 3 months without the need to work....but I suppose you have to show evidence to support yourselves...and I'm sure a job offer is acceptable! As to travel to the UK you will have to apply for a visa for your wife which should be issued free of ch...
So lets say a British citizen enters the UK with their non-eu spouse under community rules EU Law and not national law how long do they have to wait in order to apply for citizenship?
Jaj - really I had thought if you entered under EU Law rather than UK National Law you could not change in-country....ie you entered under EUlaw you apply for naturalization as the spouse of an EU national not a british national?? So that's incorrect?
Another question....I see it says Reckonable residence on the Island of Ireland? I assume this includes Northern Ireland? Or no? So if I was to enter northern Ireland with a Family permit, as a spouse of an Irish citizen and three years later applied for citizenship? Can you does this if you enter u...
That was meant to say English speaking ! Just my opinion though as I have moved to non-english speaking country and it's hard especially regarding immigration issues!!
So it's three years right?
One year reckonable residence before application and at least 2 of the previous 4 years prior to application? Can one of those 2 years not count as the 1 year reckonable residence?
