Jesus! 2 years for EEA2!! I presume you have done some complaints to your local MP and Solvit?

We have sent an email to our local MP this afternoon, so fingers crossed! We will keep you all posted on how that goes. SOLVIT my husband is pursuing our case with them, so we will keep you guys informed once we get any news. Fact is all we can do is keep the pressure on and not lose hope. Those ar...

Hi guys ! The MP can't do much ! I CC the my MP for every e-mail, letter, fax I send to the HO, He/She anly send a copy of the response they get from the HO. So if the MP does any push for the case ? I don't know and I don't think. I am on EEA4 nearly a year now... so Imagine how depressed I am. Th...

If anyone has sent a complaint letter to their local MP about the HO's excellent service standarts!!!, could you please tell us, whether did it help to speed up the process or not?

My wife (German citizen) went to Croydon home office this morning to apply for EEA1. She was told that she could not apply for EEA1 seperatly/in person (because I have already applied for EEA2) and she would get the EEA1 automaticly as soon as my RC/EEA2 have issued.

Thanks for that Forza! Just one more question (and please don't shout at me if it's a silly one) :) : What hold-up is their in your life if you have to wait six months for the RC? As far as I understand it, the RC is just confirmation of your rights, so how does it affect a person if they have to w...

The EEA applications don't raise any revenue so perhaps they don't dedicate enough staff to get the job done in a timely manner. I presume that is the reason! My friend applied for Tier1 - poststudy visa and paid about £ 600 and received the permit within couple of weeks! The funny thing is he app...

He said there's nothing they can do to process it faster and I've only been waiting since the 14th of September which "is not that long as we've got people waiting since 2008". ...since 14th of Septmeber and which is not that long! ... :) yea they are right actually, applicants should min...

Can I just ask a simple question (or two): Once you've applied for the EEA2, can you get your passport back for traveling purposes? What does the COA that you receive a week or two after application actually say? I will be applying for an EEA2 in a few months and was wondering about these practical...

I called the HO today and they told me that it has not been allocated to a case work team!! I applied on 5th of January! Over two months!

I guess it is gonna take several months to allocate the application to a case work team!

I called the HO this morning but could not get through waited on the phone over 20 min.

Any news & update?

Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Article 13

We should send fax & emails and complain about their service standarts (so called)! We should be able to travel with a document & temproary visa at least to our home country!

There is no fee for applications under European law.

Hello everyone,

I thought, it could be useful to post a new topic regarding EEA2 applications as there are many topics such as eea2, EEA2, update please EEA2 etc. and it is quite confusing!

From now on, we can all discuss about EEA2 - uptodate info under one umbrella...

They do not give any specific info, always repeat the same things. Frustarting...

Rang the Liverpool office this afternoon, and they told me "it hasn't been assigned a case reference number yet...it's still in a queue". Whatever that means. :roll: Just be patient. I submitted my app on 14/09/09, received my COA (dated 18/09/09) two weeks later, and heard nothing from t...

I applied in November 2009 and got my RC within 5 weeks.... so perhaps that’s a sign that things are speeding up. Good luck! Congr. WellingtonKiwi! Did you send any "comperensive sickness insurance" or any insurance documents? And would you mind telling us what documents did you send to...
