A quick update:

I received my COA yesterday and it stated that I applied for a residence card as an EEA family member!!! Did they read my application before sending such a letter?
Secondly, if I request my passport back, will it have an impact on the application?

Many thanks

@ eusmileweallsmile: I agree with you about hard feelings and things, but what is done is done. Now talking from a legal point of view, will this bear any implication on the outcome of the application? @Obie: So, does her letter, if it is really sent, can be used by UKBA to conclude it is a marriage...

A quick update:

Ex wife said she reported me to UKBA that I didn't marry her for love. She also said she will report me to the dental council to ban me from working! Will such a complaint influence the outcome of the application?

Thanks

You should try and contact them

Thats really scary as I am exactly in the same situation. I lodged my application 3 weeks ago with exactly same scenario like yours. please keep in touch and let us know how the appeal goes

The problem is that you have to prove your ex was exercising treaty rights up to the date of decree absolute. I sent my application with passport and everything almost 3 weeks ago, so let's wait and see

Yes, I had RC at the time, we were married for 4 years and I lodged my ROR application 2 weeks ago with my original documents and her photocopies. So, fingers crossed

Try and reach agreement with your wife now that you will make divorce smooth for her and in return she will help you with evidence of exercising treaty rights until the date of decree absolute. I was in the same situation but my ex was so irritating that we couldn't even initiate a conversation, let...

An update:

I have sent my application today with the above mentioned evidence, so fingers crossed. I will request my passport back once I get my COA. Does the COA show my right to work or not?

Thanks

An update, I have found a coloured photocopy of ex PR card and a colour photocopy of ex employer's letter in Nov 2010 confirming 5 years of continuous full time employment. I know the home office doesn't accept photocopies, but do these particular two pieces of evidence along aside an acrinomuos typ...

I would highlight the permanent residence card letter more prominently. It proves that your ex-wife had PR at date of divorce. Thanks, point taken into account. Can I request my passport back once I get COA without affecting the outcome of the application? Finally, I want to send my P45s and P60s, ...

Hello everyone, I think many of you know my story, but this is the summary in brief: married to EEA in August 2008 came to the UK Feb 2009 with a family permit separated in Nov 2011, decree absolute in July 2012 ex is issued PR card dated 31 January 2011, she has been working for the same employer f...

If it is not obvious on EEA2, he can send his supporting evidence which is P60s and payslips. Legally, you can apply without EEA2 as long as you present your supporting evidence well

I have one more question, just to be sure I understand everything correctly. His wife has Permanent Residence card. As I understand it, PR card holder are not required to show they are exercising Treaty Rights and in this case he is not required to include into his ROR application payslips showing ...

Hello everyone, I will apply for ROR within a couple of weeks and I need your help with the covering letter at the moment. I will mention Amos VS Sec Of State, I will inform UKBA that the marriage ended acronimously and the estranged spouse is not willing to help, I will request UKBA to check their ...

If you were working all the time since you got married till decree absolute; and you have CSI your ex can be classified as self sufficient and you can retain your residence

@ EUsmileWEallsmile: she obtained PR in Feb 2011 and I got decree absolute in July 2012, so it is less than 2 years. Do you think I will need a solicitor from now or wait till going to court? @ Directive/2004/38/EC: I will apply around October or November as I need my passport to sort out some bank ...

In this particular case, the OP's ex-spouse already has a permanent residence card, the UKBA have the information. It would take minimal effort for them to confirm that it was issued. Exactly, this is the point I am relying on more than employment. I don't have her PR card but only the letter that ...

Directive/2004/38/EC wrote:Guerro, Where you a victim of domestic violence?

No I am not, but ex will not help at all. she removed me from facebook, skype, email contact and everything. Am I eligible to ask UKBA to carry the checks on my behalf?

Does it mean that when you send an application with a missing piece of evidence (usually proof of estranged EEA's exercising treaty rights), you should ask UKBA to carry out the checks for you as you can't get the information? And does it mean they have to carry out the checks? Did you find the doc...

No need to worry, you seem to hold the most important papers which will grant you easy retention (evidence of 3+ years of marriage, ex exercising treaty rights, you working, insurance, bills).
You nearly have it in your pocket

Jambo, Thank you very much

@ Jambo:
Regarding the 6 months out of a year rule, do I have to present 6 pieces of evidence in both names for every single year? if in both names, does it mean 3 a year for each person?

Thanks

When I was married to my French ex, I couldn't go to France with my RC and I needed a visa. They stated clearly on their website and when I phoned that family members who hold RC need to apply for a visa. However, I went to Holland and Portugal without a visa and had no problem with airline staff
