Of course more, provided you've been legit all the way through, to the point such a position obviously ignores Chikwamba and Bekou Betts.

I thought 'go back and join the queue' went out out of the window with those, perhaps they didn't get the memo........

If you've been together for more than 3 years during which time the eea national is exercising treaty rights then it shouldn't have been revoked. Morpheo, you need to go read the Home Office law and IDIs PPie I'm afraid that babe2 is right. the law is very clear and it was explained many times in th...

;) Yeah, but, no, but, yeah, but :) Well, i'd more worry more when they write back to your mate to ask for more evidence. But, be aware of the details re: cross border workers. Because if they do decide to refuse then you have enough evidence to put together a decent argument. Then again, you don't ...

If she's french and living in england, and then coming home from work, she might qualify as a cross-border worker, which also means she's probably using her treaty rights.

Surinder singh

A very important case called Metock removed the prior legal residence requirement which you may have read about? You need to look at something called the Surinder Singh route, i'm sure someone here can help. Are you working/jobseeking? This is what's referred to as 'exercising a treaty right'. You c...

Erm, yes, well i'd go by the rules as that's what the home office *should* follow (but of course be prepared for 'fun')

You may want to speak to the Immigration Advisory Service for more info, or even better an OSIC qualified person.

chaps, hats off to you all It's quite worrying that many of the embassy sites *are such a nightmare!* to look at. I would suggest it might not be a smart move to get them looking around on here though! Let's face it, most embassys need no excuse to undertake general bumbrainery. Best bet is to make ...

_Sigh_

In a fashion you can see the logic of people needing to speak English - even if it is basic stuff - that's part of the concept of fitting in with the community you wish to join; what would you do in an emergency if a loved one was sick or some other situation.....? However, it seems that the Irish g...

Terri, I am looking at this route too, as a possible it all goes-pear-shaped plan B. If you have a look at the visa application form from either the Dutch or French embassies it's suprisingly simple and you don't have to answer many of the questions as an EU type person; I cannot comment on the proc...
