I see it the same way. We are going to be very careful and leave the UK to live/work in the EU, before the limited leave to remain expires. This isn't a big problem, we're more used to living in France than the UK anyway, we met there and both speak French. We'll appeal the decision from outside the...
Hello, We've spoken to a solicitor friend who has talked to other immigration solicitors and barristers. Their belief is that it's a bit of a grey area we fall in as there is no case law specifically concerning living in a 3rd country (or countries) between leaving the host state and returning to th...
I actually have a new doubt after re-reading the Morocco [2010] UKUT 420 case referenced above. What was determined was that the link between exercising treaty rights (working) and returning to home state was not broken in that case. There is nothing about a link between leaving the member state and...
I think I'll have to assume that MRAX doesn't apply for us as we were refused entry using SS. I still think that the limited leave to remain is under UK law. When we returned the second day we did not use the SS argument again, as it seemed likely they would uphold the argument of the day before. We...
It certainly does seem that it's fine for her to stay. However, I am trying to think of what could possibly go wrong as I've learnt that even if you're right sometimes it doesn't matter... Lets say she stays and applies for RC. Wouldn't there be 2 simultaneous processes going on: A) limited leave to...
She entered the UK on the basis of MRAX. Read through http://eumovement.wordpress.com/2010/08/04/no-visa-but-still-want-to-travel/ I would write the third paragraph differently: You were initially unlawfully refused entry into the UK, and somebody partly corrected their mistake . Note that she does...
Can anyone advise on implications of applying for RC with EEA2 while on limited leave to remain? What if the leave expires while waiting for the RC, or while waiting for the CoA? Could she end up overstaying?
concerning this case... http://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKUT/IAC/2010/00420_ukut_iac_2010_ob_morocco.html ...it was determined that right of entry cannot be restrictively interpreted... "10. Although neither Surinder Singh nor Eind addresses the period of time (if any) between employment in the ...
Hi, We have a French civil partnership - PACS. Yes my partner had a residence card. Not as a family member, but student. But we can prove we lived together which is all that is needed. Utility bills with both names, payslips with same adress etc. We managed to get back to the UK today. Went back to ...
By the way, in the case in the link above, Morocco [2010] UKUT 420 (IAC), included in the decision was that " We assume that there has to be some link between the exercise of the Treaty rights in the Republic of Ireland and the return of the spouse to the United Kingdom" but it wasn't brok...
Yeah, we did talk to the chief officer. The thing was her decision, she was telling me that the right to qualify for SS "expires", that it doesn't matter that it was 3 years ago we were in France. Could try again tomorrow and ask them to call HO, but I'd rather not have to waste any more t...
Yes we got written refusal and permission to appeal. Main reason for returning is because my Dad will be having a bypass soon and I want to be around. Probably wont stay more than 6 months. Obviously better if we can both work while there. They told us that there's nothing stopping her trying to ent...
Today my civil partner (non-visa national) and I tried going to England from France by ferry and applying for an 1A stamp for her. I am British. We were using the Surinder Singh route based on having worked in France for 4 years, up to 2010, living together there and having a PACS in France from 200...
Dear All, I hope someone may have some info on the following as I'm having difficulty finding detailed information in english or in french... I'm English, I've been working and living in France for nearly 3 years. My girlfriend is Mexican, has been studying in france for 2 years but student visa is ...
