I hear people saying BREXIT, rules have changed. Yes but mostly for people residing in UK, transiting through the Schengen zone to travel to UK. The BRP is just worth nothing outside UK as even if you are a family member of EU National residing in UK you still need a Schengen Visa to travel to the S...

This is my personal experience traveling to UK for last 12 years without a Visa even though I was a Visa required National. I held a document in t...

Is there any possibility that the legality of the marriage certificate may be questionable? There might be other issues that the authority discovered during the application process - for example, maybe your partner has a criminal offence (even minor things like parking or speeding) may be considere...

You are not alone. I know atleast 15 persons awaiting a decision. SOLVIT Ireland is useless, after 10 weeks they will just say that they need more time to study the matter. You can contact the TD of the area your other half is living and he/she can check the status for you. The date shown as 04/06/2...

Not sure how Irish Authorities work. According to the website they are processeing Visa applications according to the date they receive but i see people who applied in August have their application processed and those who applied in May/June still waiting for a decision. What a joke? Accelerated Bas...

However, the processing times for my application are up to June on the visa decision website so maybe they have started processing them fast enough You are talking about Visa application or IRP card application as a family member of EU National?

I don't know why it is taking so long as Join Family Visas of spouse of non EEA National are decided in 2 weeks. The EU should act because these types of Visas are decided on an accelerated basis and 6 months is not accelerated basis. Just have to check marriage certificate. And if an European marri...
