Should I also include my wife's NHS certificate? Hi, I think the rejection comes because you haven't sent proof of your wife's private medical insurance. In all cases of self-sufficiency, private medical insurance should be taken for both eu and non-eu citizen. NHS is not accepted as private medica...

hi Mr Anwarj, wishing you very good luck , with home office its always hopeless though, anyway i can tell you that even if you think that you have provided all the required documents the home office with no doubt will ask you about extra additional and that i bet not before at least 8-12 months fro...

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that PR was granted and our passports came back in around 4 months since getting COA (COA itself took 2 weeks). For the ones applying as self-sufficient who are wondering what happens for the period you didn't have Private Health Insurance, it seems to be fine to ta...

I've got rejected my EEA4 before because of the lack of private health insurance and, it came with a letter from HO saying that the insurance needs to be for both, EEA self-sufficient and non-EEA working. I just wanted to let you know that after sending proof of insurance for both of us, we receive...

I understand your point , what I am asking is Are you looking to backdate insurance because ur X EEA sopuse was not working or what ? Not at all. As far as I know, you cannot backdate an insurance. Anyway, I'm not looking for anything at the moment. As I already said, just waiting for the result. T...

Honestly they is something I missing. Why do you need Insurance on EEA4? If you are sending private medical Insurance because ur X was not working throughout then you have a very little chance of getting ILF. Can you tell me why you need it? Coz I felt you told me that you are divorce ? jude, pleas...

Iira , why did you want to wait untill ur application is back before you look for the Insurance? Have you try Universal provendence? It would be better to get 1 and sent it to them before the make their decision. jude, the whole point of this thread was that my EEA4 application was rejected because...

Iira , I applied 5 years ago . For your information you only receive a letter from the HO asking medical insurance or emergencies as you stated when you or your spouse are not working... is that right? My other point I mentioned is that , all private medical insurance company can see thier client's...

I do not understand why you guys are stressing your self . If you guys want your non EEA husband or wife to stay in the country just go and get the medical insurance. I applied in 2004 with my EEA wife and our application was refused due to the fact that my EEA wife was not working , we reapplied u...

could anyone please tell me how i can get a comprehensive health insurance cover?my family and i are migrating to london in january 2010 and we are applying for resident permit and registration certificate under the self sufficient rule.problem is how to get a comprehensive health insurance cover t...

Thanks Iira Have you got insurance covering the past few years however? No, I didn't know it was necessary until they rejected the application. And I still don't know if that's going to be a problem. I haven't heard yet if other people in the same situation have been successful with their applicati...

When you initially applied, did you not get a COA? Also did you get a time frame within which to send the insurance details? And did you find one with "emergency cover" In my case, I applied in March 2009 and an acknowledgement letter in May 2009 but only got the letter requesting more in...

I have got a similar letter asking for proof of medical insurance although we are "self sufficient" and I have provided documentation for myself and my partner who is the EEA national. Has anyone been successful lately? I have just received my COA today. It took 15 days since we sent the ...

If PR is granted by EEA4, is it still necessary to spend more than 6 months in UK to keep residency? I mean, does the same rule of the first 5 years apply for the following 10 years? Also, what comes after EEA4? (non-EU citizen is not planning to apply to British Citizenship because his nationality ...

Are you calling 0845 010 5200? It takes ages to get through but you need to insist. Late is usually easier. (try this number as well...0151 672 5626) from 16 November the opening time for the EEA residency enquiry line will be 0900 - 1700 You can try to e-mail. Mention on the subject that is urgent....

Thanks for the info. May I ask what nationality are you and your husband, is any one of you an EEA national? as being any one of EEA national we can live and work anywhere in Europe so it shouldn't make any difference what nationality kids have as long as its within EEA. Would you agree? I'm EEA na...

What nationality will the baby have - Indian / Polish / German / British As far as I know, (my children were born in UK and both, myself and my husband have different nationalities. I also have dual nationality...) they cannot be British by being born here unless one of the parents is British. They...

I don't know if it counts because mine was rejected...however, it can give people an idea of how long does it take to hear from them... My papers were at the HO on 13th October and came back rejected on 28th October. It took only 15 days! Rejected forms seem to come back quickly...I wish the can do ...

Thank you. I found the following information on the website and it says: "After you have lived in the United Kingdom for a continuous period of five years you can apply for confirmation of your permanent residence. You will need to have been in employment, self-employment, studying or self-suff...

Thank you for your reply. The reason why I thought I need to apply again is that the PR card has the same expiry date as my husband's stamp on his passport. It seems is not that "permanent" after all... Do you still think I don't need to renew it? I cannot find a proper explanation on HO's...

My husband is applying for EEA4 and I just realized that I might need to apply for EEA3 as well. Here is the situation...I've got a Residence card 5 years ago with form EEC1 (I'm the EU national). Does this Residence card need to be done again with EEA3 form? In case form EEA3 needs to be sent as we...

Home Office is asking now for family permit sponsors to have a private health insurance if they are self-sufficient (not working). I don' know how they consider pregnancy though. In UK we can take a European health insurance card: http://www.ehic.org/cover.html It does mention Austria, therefore, yo...

Can I ask from where did you take your insurance? I haven't taken it yet. I'm still on the search...there are too many types and I'm not familiar with the options. Somebody said in a different discussion that they've got their visa after getting insurance from generalandmedical.com. Although it's n...

Once again, i will like to reiterate that the UK border agency is wrong to refuse residency to family member of EEA national on the basis that the EEA national don't hold a comprehensive sickness insurance, as reiterated in Baumbast, especially in cases where the non-EEA national is in employment a...
